The CREDO® Stent is a laser-cut stent for ICAD* treatment, used for stabilisation of the affected vessel section following a balloon angioplasty.
* ICAD Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease
With diameters of 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm and 4.5 mm the CREDO® Stent is suitable for vessels within a diameter range of 2.0 to 4.0 mm. Due to its low profile the stent can be delivered through the NeuroSpeed® PTA Balloon Catheter with an inner diameter of 0.0165”™”™. Consequently, an exchange of the PTA balloon catheter by a microcatheter is not required for the stent delivery – minimising the procedure time and procedural risks.
The combination of CREDO® Stent and NeuroSpeed® PTA Balloon Catheter offers versatile options for a gentle and effective treatment of intracranial stenosis under consideration of patient-specific chances and risks.
Visibility leads to maximum safety. The three flat Platinum-Iridium X-ray markers on each end of the CREDO® Stent and the middle marker on the transport wire support a safe and precise placement under fluoroscopy.
