Boston Scientific Hurricane RX Biliary Balloon Dilatation Catheter 8/4 M00545940
The Boston Scientific Hurricane RX Biliary Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a sterile, single-use device designed for endoscopic dilation of biliary strictures. It features a low-profile 5.8 Fr, 180 cm catheter with a 4 cm balloon. This tool offers controlled radial expansion and clear radiopacity for accurate placement.
Designed for precise dilation, this catheter uses an 8 mm diameter balloon that inflates uniformly over a 4 cm length to open biliary strictures efficiently. Its low-profile 5.8 Fr shaft with a stiffening stylet provides strong pushability through tight or tortuous ducts . The device supports guidewire locking and contrast injection with the wire in place, simplifying procedural control and reducing risk of losing access . Rated for up to 12 ATM pressure, it’s fully compatible with standard ERCP inflation devices for reliable and safe use.
