Boston Scientific CRE Fixed Wire Balloon Dilatation Catheters 6/8.0 M00558340
The Boston Scientific CRE Fixed Wire Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a sterile, single-use esophageal dilation device. It features an 8 cm non-compliant Pebax balloon that inflates to 8 mm, 9 mm, or 10 mm using a fixed central guidewire. Designed with platinum‑iridium radiopaque markers for precise fluoroscopic placement.
This fixed‑wire catheter simplifies esophageal stricture treatment by integrating the guidewire, eliminating separate wire exchanges. The balloon offers sequential inflation diameters of 8, 9, and 10 mm at 3, 5.5, and 9 ATM respectively, allowing controlled dilation in one instrument. Rounded shoulders and visible markers enhance visualization and positioning under fluoroscopy . With its low‑profile 6 Fr shaft and 180 cm working length, it easily navigates ≥ 2.8 mm endoscope channels.
