Boston Scientific CRE Fixed Wire Balloon Dilatation Catheters 6/8.0 M00558380
The Boston Scientific CRE Fixed Wire Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a sterile, single-use esophageal dilation device. Featuring an 8 cm non-compliant balloon with diameters of 18–20 mm on a 6 Fr shaft with fixed guidewire. It offers controlled radial dilation and radiopaque markers for precise placement.
Designed with an integrated guidewire, this catheter streamlines dilation by removing the need for wire exchanges. The balloon inflates to 18, 19, and 20 mm at pressures between 3–6 ATM, enabling stepwise dilation in one device. Rounded balloon shoulders improve visualization and minimize mucosal trauma. Platinum-iridium radiopaque markers at proximal and distal ends ensure accurate fluoroscopic targeting.
