Cook Amplatz Sheath G17965 VS-260016-ARI
The Amplatz Sheath G17965 VS-260016-ARI is a medical device used in urology procedures. It acts as a stable channel for instruments during renal access or nephrostomy procedures. This sheath helps in smooth and safe insertion of catheters and surgical tools.
This sheath is designed to maintain a previously established nephrostomy tract, allowing smooth and secure introduction of surgical instruments or scopes during renal procedures. Made from firm, kink‑resistant PTFE with a tapered, atraumatic tip, it reduces tissue trauma during insertion and instrument exchange. Its radiopaque design ensures the sheath can be accurately positioned under fluoroscopy or X‑ray. The sheath facilitates efficient and safe access to the renal system, supporting better procedural control and minimizing risk of tract collapse or soft tissue damage.
