GUIDING CATHETER EKARI
Product Overview
IMPROVED BACK UP SUPPORT*1
Catheter designed to use contralateral wall resulting in enhanced back-up support.
UNIVERSAL SHAPE (IKARI LEFT)Â *2
Offer capability of accessing the right and left coronary arteries, potentially avoiding catheter exchanges.
DESIGN FOR SAFETY
Soft tip to reduce damage to the vessel wall

J Invasive Cardio. 2005 Dec; 17(12): 636-641.*2: Youssef AA, Hsieh YK, Cheng CI, We CJ. A single trans-radial guiding catheter for right and left coronary angiography and intervention.

Patients who have had cardiac catheterization or coronary angioplasty often are required to stay in bed with restricted movement for three to 24 hours afterward to prevent bleeding from the femoral artery catheter insertion site.
Features and Benefits
Improved back up support in comparison to Terumo standard femoral guiding catheter shapes*1

The physics of guiding catheters for the left coronary artery in transfemoral and trans-radial interventions. J Invasive Cardio. 2005 Dec; 17(12): 636-641.*3: Youssef AA, Hsieh YK, Cheng CI, We CJ. A single trans-radial guiding catheter for right and left coronary angiography and intervention. Euro intervention 2007; 3: 475-481.
Guide catheters are required for all coronary interventions to provide access to the coronary ostium and support equipment delivery. The ideal guide provides stability for device advancement through the coronary anatomy, while minimizing vessel trauma and allowing for vessel opacification.
The catheter is guided to the narrowed artery. Then, a smaller balloon catheter is inserted through the flexible catheter and inflated at the narrowed area to open it. Often, the doctor will also place a mesh coil called a stent at the narrowed part to help keep the artery open.

PTCA Balloon Ryurei
Description
Confidence in your hands
Ryureiâ„¢ has superior crossability1Â thanks to the combination of low distal profiles and Terumo’s hydrophilic M coating. The short balloon bonding and reinforced shaft1Â results in enhanced trackability1Â while maintaining excellent pushability1.
These features can increase physician’s confidence in success even during complex procedures.
CharacteristicsExcellent Pusability
The combination of flexible distal part, tapered core wire on the midshaft and the thick proximal hypotube, results in smooth and balanced transition across the entire catheter for high transmission force, resulting in excellent pushability
Superior Crossability2
Thanks to the combination of distal low profiles and the Terumo hydrophilic M-Coat, Ryurei offers low friction in crossing tight lesions
Enhanced Trackability2
With an optimal tip design and improved balloon bonding, Ryurei provides enhanced trackability, even in tortuous anatomy and difficult to navigate vessels.
