Cook Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56434
The Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56434 is a sterile, single-use ureteral access sheath designed for endoscopic urological procedures. It provides a channel for instruments to enter the urinary tract safely while protecting the ureter. The sheath has a hydrophilic coating to ease insertion and reduce friction.
This sheath allows urologists to create a continuous conduit from the urethra up to the ureter or kidney, facilitating procedures such as ureteroscopy, stone removal, and scope passage. Its “Parallel Rapid Release” design enables a single guide wire to serve both as working wire and safety wire, simplifying the procedure and reducing instrument clutter. The hydrophilic coating on the sheath reduces friction during insertion and dilation of the ureter, which helps minimize trauma to ureteral tissue. The sheath’s design also protects delicate endoscopes and flexible instruments during repeated exchanges, enhancing safety and instrument longevity.
