Boston Scientific NephroMax High Pressure Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter M0062101440
The NephroMax High Pressure Balloon Catheter is a sterile, single-use device featuring a 30 Fr (10 mm) non-compliant balloon, 10 cm in length, and paired with a 20 Fr × 15 cm PTFE sheath. It’s engineered for radial dilation of nephrostomy tracts during PCNL. Rated to inflate up to 20 atm for consistent high-pressure performance.
This balloon catheter enables smooth controlled dilation of the nephrostomy tract with minimal trauma due to its improved low-profile, short-tipped design. The high-pressure capability (20 atm) ensures reliable expansion while maintaining balloon shape even under stress . The PTFE sheath provides a firm, kink-resistant working tract and is marked with a radiopaque gold band to assist precise fluoroscopic placement. Its improved design features—short bevel tip and balloon “shoulders”—allow closer access to kidney stones, facilitating sheath placement in challenging anatomies.
