MICRO-TECH introduces an additional special stent designed specifically for treatment of the respiratory tracts in the shape of the self expanding Carina-J-Stent. Due to its angled design in the form of a J, the stent can be perfectly placed in the trachea and main bronchus after pneumonectomy has been performed. The fully covered stent protects the surgical suture. At the same time, it seals any existing suture insufficiencies and effectively prevents suture stenoses. You can therefore reduce the risk of complications with the J-stent and accelerate the patient’s healing process.
CARINA-J-STENT
SUCCESSFUL RISK MANAGEMENT AFTER PNEUMONECTOMY
SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS
- Angled J-design
- Self-expanding
- Nitinol mesh with atraumatic ends
- Excellent positional stability
- High radial force
- Resistant and elastic covering
- Complete covering
- High radiopacity
- Guide wire-compatible up to 0.035 inches
SUCCESSFUL IN PRACTICAL USE
The self-expanding J-stent made of Nitinol is characterized by its excellent radiopacity, as proven by the radiological images. X-ray markings at prominent positions on the stent also improve orientation during release. After deployment, J stents assume efficient expansion which in turn initiates their therapeutic success.
Released J-stent
INNOVATIVE STENT DESIGN
The special J-shape, the complete covering and the excellent radial force – along with a large number of other characteristics on this stent, make the bypassing after lobectomy safer than ever.
