Peripheral Intervention: Products for Peripheral Vascular Intervention
SWL Medizin offers a portfolio of medical devices for peripheral interventions and endovascular procedures. The product range includes peripheral guidewires, peripheral microcatheters, TACE microcatheters, PTA balloon catheters, and drug-coated balloon (DCB) catheters.
Note: Product availability and regulatory status may vary depending on the product and market. The applicable product documentation, labeling, and instructions for use are authoritative.
Products for Peripheral Vascular Intervention
The portfolio covers product groups for endovascular access, navigation, and balloon dilatation. Product selection should be based on technical specifications, system compatibility, and intended use.
Peripheral Guidewires
Within an interventional system, peripheral guidewires serve as a guiding component for subsequent catheters and other compatible instruments. When comparing technical specifications, particular attention should be paid to the wire diameter and length, the tip shape, the coating, the distal design, the support characteristics, and compatibility with the intended catheter and access system.
Peripheral Microcatheters
Peripheral microcatheters are designed for navigation within smaller or selective vascular segments and as components of compatible guidewire-catheter systems. Relevant comparison parameters include, among others, outer and inner diameters, effective length, distal profile, shaft construction, coating, radiopaque markers, and guidewire compatibility.
TACE Microcatheter
Key technical parameters include inner and outer diameters, effective length, distal configuration, shaft design, radiopacity, and compatibility with the media and accessories specified in the product documentation.
PTA Balloon Catheter
When selecting a catheter, the following factors should be taken into account above all: balloon diameter and length, nominal pressure (NP), rated burst pressure (RBP), balloon type or compliance, catheter length, compatibility with guidewires, compatibility between the introducer sheath and the catheter, and the crossing profile.
Drug-Coated Balloon Catheters (DCB)
DCB-specific parameters include coating composition, balloon type, size matrix, guidewire compatibility, and access configuration.
Technical Selection Criteria for Medical Devices Used in the Treatment of Peripheral Vessels
When evaluating a supplier or manufacturer of medical products for peripheral vascular medicine, hospitals and distribution partners should not focus exclusively on individual product features. Rather, the key consideration is whether the product dimensions, the access system, the guidewire, the catheter, and the accessories are technically compatible, and whether the product documentation required for the respective market is available.
| Selection Criteria | What to Review |
|---|---|
| 1. System Compatibility | Guidewire diameter, sheath/catheter size in Fr, inner and outer diameters, effective length, connectors, and compatibility with downstream components. |
| 2. Guidewire Parameters | Diameter, length, tip shape, coating, distal design, support characteristics, and torsional transmission, as specified for the respective product category. |
| 3. Balloon Parameters | Particularly for PTA and DCB systems, these include balloon diameter and length, nominal pressure, rated burst pressure (RBP), compliance or balloon type, catheter length, crossing profile, and compatibility with the guidewire and guide sheath. |
| 4. Microcatheter Parameters | Inner/outer diameter, effective length, distal profile, shaft design, coating, radiopaque markers, and compatibility with guidewires; for TACE products, additionally the media and accessories listed in the data sheet. |
| 5. Regulatory and Technical Documentation | Product labeling, valid instructions for use, technical specifications, and the current regulatory status for Germany or the intended target market. |
| 6. Availability and Procurement | Part numbers, size charts, market availability, terms of sale, shipping information, and contact details before placing an order or adding a product to a sales portfolio. |

What products are included in the SWL portfolio for peripheral interventions?
The portfolio includes, among other things, peripheral guidewires, peripheral microcatheters, TACE microcatheters, PTA balloon catheters, and drug-coated balloon (DCB) catheters. Specific availability may vary depending on the product and market.
What technical specifications are particularly important for PTA balloon catheters?
The following factors are particularly relevant for technical comparison: balloon diameter and length, nominal pressure, rated burst pressure (RBP), balloon type or compliance, catheter length, crossing profile, and compatibility with guidewires, sheaths, and delivery systems. The final product selection must be made based on the applicable product documentation and instructions for use.
How do PTA balloon catheters differ from drug-coated balloon (DCB) catheters?
Both product groups are balloon catheter systems; however, they differ, among other things, in their product-specific design and—in the case of DCB—in the presence of a drug coating. For a technical comparison, in addition to size and pressure range, coating specifications, balloon type, system compatibility, and the approved intended use of each product should also be taken into account.
What criteria should be considered for peripheral guidewires?
Relevant technical criteria include diameter, length, tip shape, coating, distal design, support properties, and torsional transmission. Additionally, it must be verified that the guidewire is compatible with the intended catheters, balloons, and access components.
What is important when selecting peripheral microcatheters?
When comparing peripheral microcatheters, factors such as inner and outer diameters, effective length, distal profile, shaft construction, coating, radiopaque markers, and guidewire compatibility should be evaluated. These parameters should be compared with the intended system and the applicable product documentation.
What technical aspects should be evaluated for TACE microcatheters?
For TACE microcatheters, particular attention should be paid to the inner and outer diameters, effective length, distal design, shaft construction, radiopacity, and the media and accessory compatibility specified in the product documentation. The approved intended use and the instructions for use of the respective product are decisive.
What documents should clinics and distribution partners review before placing an order for Germany?
Depending on the product, the current regulatory status, product labeling, valid instructions for use, technical specifications, item and size charts, and information on market availability should be reviewed. For specific products, SWL Medizin can provide the available product information and technical documentation.
How can I request product catalogs, technical data, or a quote?
Hospitals, healthcare professionals, and distribution partners can contact SWL Medizin directly to request product information, technical specifications, availability details, or a customized quote.
