Cook Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56433
The Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56433 is a sterile, single-use ureteral access sheath used in endoscopic urology procedures. It provides a conduit to allow instruments to access the urinary tract while protecting the ureter during instrument exchanges. The sheath features a hydrophilic coating for smoother insertion and reduced friction.
This sheath establishes a continuous working channel from the urethra toward the ureter or kidney, enabling safe passage of endoscopes and other tools during procedures like ureteroscopy or stone removal. Its “Parallel Rapid Release” design lets a single guide wire serve both as working and safety wire, simplifying setup and reducing the need for multiple wires. The hydrophilic coating helps ease insertion, lowering friction and reducing potential trauma to the ureter. The sheath protects both the ureter and delicate instruments through multiple instrument exchanges, enhancing safety and preserving instrument integrity.
