Tazuna™ Semi-Compliant PTCA Balloon Catheter – Advanced Solution for Complex Coronary Lesions

Tazuna™ PTCA Dilatation Catheter

The Tazuna™ PTCA Dilatation Catheter is a high-performance, semi-compliant balloon catheter developed by Terumo for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedures. It is designed to enhance crossability and pushability, enabling effective treatment of complex coronary lesions.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Pushability: The catheter's mid-shaft construction balances flexibility and stiffness, maximizing force transmission to the distal section. A modified guidewire exit port increases durability during complex procedures.

• Superior Crossing Performance: With an ultra-low entry profile of 0.40 mm (0.016 inches) and a flexible, robust tip, the Tazuna™ catheter efficiently crosses tight lesions and stent struts. The hydrophilic coating on the distal shaft facilitates navigation through tortuous and calcified vessels.

• Excellent Re-Wrapping and Re-Crossability: The specially engineered tri-wrapped balloon ensures outstanding re-wrapping performance, enhancing the catheter's ability to re-cross lesions if necessary
