Product catalog summary
Overview: The document introduces the InLay OptIma® ureteral stent, a next-generation solution for ureteral stenting challenges. It highlights the stent's performance characteristics, including smooth insertion, patient comfort, and reduced accumulation of urine calcium salts.
Specifications: The InLay OptIma® stent is designed for indwelling up to 365 days. It features a gradual taper at the tip for smooth insertion and a distinctive lime green color for enhanced visibility. The stent is made from a proprietary polymer blend that is biocompatible and ultra-smooth.
Performance Comparison: The InLay OptIma® stent is shown to be 32% easier to place than a leading competitive stent. It has a smoother surface, reducing the potential for urine calcium salt adhesion compared to competitive stents A and B, which have 66% and 79% greater surface roughness, respectively.
Patient Comfort: The stent softens by 29% to 49% at body temperature, promoting greater comfort. The unique "pHreeCOAT" coating stabilizes pH levels on the stent surface, minimizing adhesion of urine calcium salts.
Laboratory Testing: In vitro tests demonstrate superior resistance to urine calcium salt accumulation, with competitive stents A and B encrusting 34% and 80% more than the InLay OptIma® stent, respectively.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed ordering information for various sizes of the InLay OptIma® stent and associated guidewires.
