Cordis Corporation, part of the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies (JNJ) announced that it has received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration or FDA of its latest innovation in guiding catheters: the ADROIT 6F Guiding Catheter.
The ADROIT Catheter's innovative hybrid braid wire technology not only enables the production of a guide catheter with the largest lumen size on the U.S. market, it also facilitates better control and back up support. In addition, the new innovative design incorporating a flexible distal segment and soft longer tip allows atraumatic placement and stability, the company stated.
Cordis said that the ADROIT Guiding Catheter provides a wide range of shapes, including extra back-up shapes and radial specific shapes to support treatment needs of various coronary anatomies.
