A balloon catheter for intra-aortic countrapulsation (IABC) is made of athrombogenic and apyrogenic materials, it is covered with a hydrophilic coating.

A wide range of balloon capacities enables a precise selection of a balloon size to the patient's height.

Catheter's construction enables its direct introduction into an artery (after a previous widening of a place of an insertion using a vascular dilator) without an introducer or with a use of an arterial introducer included in the set.

A smooth connection between a balloon and a catheter guarantees an optimal haemostasis in a place of insertion while introducing a catheter without an introducer.

The catheters are compatible with pumps produced by Datascope and Arrow.

Characteristics of intra aortic catheter set:

1. Smooth transition between ballon and external pipe, that reducing risk of bleeding.
2. Low profile PU ballon allowing easier introduction through introducer sheath,
3. Atraumatic soft tip visible in a scopy.
4. Markings on external pipe gives a possibility for position control of catheter inside patient body without using a scopy.
5. Special catheter casing for patient protection against bacterial infection
6. Co – axial design, reduced helium flow resistance.
7. Special construction of IABC catheters makes them flexibility and kink resistance.
8. Short inflation and deflation time.
9. Low resistant valves used in introducer sheath reduce force needed for introduction of catheter into patient.
