KEY FEATURES:
• Enhanced hydrophilic coating
• Low-weight flexible tip
• Engineered for easy prolapse
• Nitinol core-to-tip design
Terumo Interventional Systems’ Runthrough NS Hypercoat is a complex lesion wire specifically for tortuous, distal lesions and tight stenotic lesions. It features an enhanced hydrophilic coating on the distal tip (25 cm), providing superior* trackability to reach the distal regions of tortuous anatomy.1,2
The nitinol core-to-tip design enables reuse in multiple lesions within complex percutaneous coronary intervention and may reduce wire use per case and cost to the facility. Additionally, the thermal memory of nitinol provides superior* tip durability in complex percutaneous coronary intervention.2 The low tip weight and high tip flexibility is designed to enable the wire to easily and safely knuckle while traversing into distal vessels, as well as allow for easy prolapse (and may contribute to safety as it relates to distal perforations). Its 14-mm-long shapeable segment enables custom shaping of the guidewire tip, with superior tip shape retention.2 This facilitates navigation through tortuous anatomy and offers flexibility to address a wider range of clinical scenarios.
