Balloon Guide Catheter

One of the key advantages of the balloon guide catheter is its ability to provide a stable and controlled access route to the vascular system. This stability is crucial for guiding other interventional devices, such as microcatheters, stents, and coils, to the exact location where treatment is needed. The balloon guide catheter's design ensures that these devices can be placed accurately and safely, minimizing the risk of complications.

In addition to its role in vascular access, the balloon guide catheter is also used in a variety of neurointerventional procedures. For example, in balloon angioplasty, the catheter can navigate a balloon to the site of vascular stenosis and inflate it to dilate the blood vessel. This treatment is particularly effective for restoring blood flow in cases of narrowed or blocked blood vessels.

Another important application of the balloon guide catheter is in the treatment of aneurysms. By assisting in the placement of stents or coils, the catheter can help prevent the protrusion of coils into the vessel lumen, reducing the risk of rupture and other complications. Similarly, in the treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), the catheter can deliver embolic materials precisely into the abnormal vessels, reducing blood flow and treating the condition.

In the case of acute ischemic stroke, the balloon guide catheter can quickly guide thrombectomy devices to the occluded vessel, restoring cerebral blood flow and minimizing brain damage. This rapid response is crucial for improving patient outcomes and reducing the risk of permanent disability.

The balloon guide catheter is also used in intracranial arterial stenosis, intracranial pressure monitoring, and drug delivery. In intracranial arterial stenosis, the catheter can guide balloons or other dilation devices to improve blood flow and relieve symptoms. In intracranial pressure monitoring, the catheter can be used to measure and monitor pressure levels, especially in cases of abnormally elevated intracranial pressure. Finally, in drug delivery, the catheter can deliver specific medications directly to specific areas of the brain or spinal cord, enabling targeted treatment for certain types of brain tumors or pain management.

The development and production of balloon guide catheters require advanced medical technology and expertise. Ningbo Micro-tube Polymer Materials Co., Ltd., with its 1,500 square meters of 10,000-level purification workshop and 3,000 square meters of standard production workshops, has successfully developed and mass-produced a number of precision medical catheter products with independent intellectual property rights.
