Cook Ultraxx Nephrostomy Balloon Set G46038
The Ultraxx Nephrostomy Balloon Set G46038 is a sterile balloon catheter kit used to dilate a percutaneous tract to the kidney for nephrostomy access. It includes a balloon catheter, sheath, and inflation device to enable controlled dilation. The balloon is radiopaque so that clinicians can verify placement with imaging before dilation.
This balloon set is designed for safe and effective dilation of the musculofascial tract, renal capsule, and parenchyma, creating a secure percutaneous access route to the renal collecting system. The radiopaque markers on the balloon allow real-time monitoring under X-ray or fluoroscopy, ensuring accurate positioning before dilation. Its high-pressure rated balloon enables dilation with controlled expansion, minimizing tissue trauma. As a ready-to-use sterile set with sheath and inflator included, it supports efficient preparation and execution of nephrostomy procedures.
