PROGREAT® Microcatheter System – Advanced Peripheral Embolization and Angiography Solution

The PROGREAT® Microcatheter series by Terumo is designed for precise navigation and therapeutic interventions within peripheral vasculature. The model numbers 130 and 150 refer to the catheter lengths of 130 cm and 150 cm, respectively.

Key Features:

• Material Composition: Constructed with a three-layer structure comprising a PTFE inner layer for smooth guidewire tracking, a tungsten coil for kink resistance, and an outer layer of polyester elastomer with hydrophilic coating for enhanced lubricity.

• Design Variations:

  • Lengths: Available in 110 cm, 130 cm, and 150 cm to accommodate various procedural requirements.
  • French Sizes: Offered in 2.0 Fr, 2.4 Fr, 2.7 Fr, and 2.8 Fr, catering to different vessel sizes.
  • Tip Configurations: Straight (shapeable), 70° angle, and J curve tips enhance vessel selectivity and access.

• Lumen Size: The thin-wall design provides a large inner lumen (up to 0.027" or 0.70 mm), facilitating the delivery of various embolic materials, including coils and microspheres up to 800±75 

• Hydrophilic Coating: The proprietary M Coat™ hydrophilic polymer coating ensures exceptional trackability through tortuous anatomy by reducing friction during navigation.

• Radiopacity: Equipped with 0.7 mm platinum/iridium markers at the distal end (one or two, depending on length) for precise visualization and positioning under fluoroscopy.

• Pressure Compatibility: Rated for maximum injection pressures of 750 psi (2.0 Fr, 2.4 Fr, 2.7 Fr) and 900 psi (2.8 Fr), allowing for efficient contrast media delivery during angiographic procedures.
