Cordis is a well-known company for providing several medical devices. For use in venous and arterial procedures that require percutaneous introduction of intravascular devices, the AVANTI®+ Introducer is the pioneer in catheter sheath introducer technology. Its features include: - a patented SLIX Valve - Provides smooth transitions, monitoring capabilities and exceptional performance for successful procedures - The hexacuspid design provides a balance between catheter maneuverability and hemostasis. - Rotating suture collar facilitates greater procedural flexibility to keep it in place and allows more patient movement. - Kink-resistant cannula design integrating a soft, flexible inner layer with a stiffer outer layer for improved bendability and support. It is less prone to kinking, is cost-effective and reliable. - Atraumatic tip transitions for both the sheath and the vessel dilator are uniquely tapered and manicured. This results in smooth insertions and will help lessen damage upon entry.
