BrosMed Medical Announces CE Mark and Launch of Wedge™ Semi-complaint Scoring PTCA

October 27th, 2017—BrosMed Medical announced CE Mark and Launched its Wedge™ Scoring PTCA Balloon for the treatment of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) for the purpose of improving myocardial blood flow in the localized stenotic lesion of the coronary arteries.

As a part of BrosMed Medical balloon catheter portfolio, Wedge™ Semi-complaint Scoring PTCA balloon is designed to satisify clinical needs which current cutting/scoring PTCA not met. The aim of Wedge™ Semi-Compliant Scoring PTCA balloon would be simply treated as workhorse PTCA for small/difussed/calcified lesion which would maximally eliminate dissection with minimal slippage phenomena. Featuring the smallest available balloon diameter of 1.5 mm, lengths up to 30 mm, and comprehensive configurations including quarter-size increments, Wedge™ provides more clinical choices than conventional scoring balloons.

According to the company, Wedge™ is rapid exchange PTCA balloon catheter that requires limited training to the physicians and it will not alter physicians’ current practice. Wedge™ PTCA would be used like conventional PTCA. Constructed with engineered material, the Wedge™ Semi-complaint Scoring PTCA catheter has consistent rated burst pressures of 14atm from φ1.5 to φ4.0mm.

We believe that the launch of Wedge™ Scoring PTCA will be a game-changer for the current scoring PTCA market, thanks to its unique design derived from first-hand physician experience. It is simple and effective for physicians’ daily work and would reduce the hesitation of using scoring PTCA due to its crossability.” said by Stephen Lee, General Manager of BrosMed Medical.

“The launch of Wedge™ Scoring PTCA will definitely differentiate us from our competitors and enhance the BrosMed brand in the market. Besides our excellent Artimes™ and Apollo™ NC PTCA, we have new products entering the market, and we believe they will further elevate our reputation,” said by Jos A.W.J de Korte, General Manager of BrosMed Medical B.V., the Netherlands, marketing and sales center of BrosMed Medical in Europe.
