The Soldier High Flow Microcatheter is a single lumen catheter designed to access small, tortuous vasculature. It is available in a variety of outer and inner diameters. Each configuration has a hydrophilic coating to provide lubricity for navigation of vessels. The inner lumen is lined with lubricious PTFE to facilitate movement of guidewires and other devices. The distal tip of the catheter is radiopaque to aid in visualization under fluoroscopy.
A flexible tube designed primarily to enable the delivery of diagnostic or therapeutic solutions into the peripheral vasculature during a cardiovascular procedure (e.g., delivery of an antithrombotic agent); some types may in addition be applied to coronary or pulmonary vasculature. It is percutaneously introduced and may include features such as side holes for infusion across a specific region, an expanding frame to disrupt clotted blood to improve diffusion, or a balloon to support infusion at a specific region. It is neither a peripherally-inserted central venous catheter, dedicated occluding catheter, nor superselective small vessel microcatheter. This is a single-use device.
