FREEWAY ™035 – DRUG-ELUTING PTA BALLOON TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR PERIPHERAL INTERVENTIONS COATING Paclitaxel Paclitaxel is an active ingredient that inhibits the cell replication thus blocking the microtubules decomposition during the metaphase and anaphase stages of mitosis. Shellac is a natural resin composed of shellolic and alleuritic acid. The excellent film forming properties of shellac are used to coat pharmaceutical products and in the food industry. By selectively inhibiting the proliferation of smooth muscle cells, paclitaxel does not influence non-proliferating cells....

FREEWAY ™035 – DRUG-ELUTING PTA BALLOON TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR PERIPHERAL INTERVENTIONS HOW IT WORKS FREEWAY™ 035, peripheral PTA balloon 0.035" – An innovative concept with many benefits: • Delivers drug locally over a short period of time • Safety due to non-crystalline coating • Crosses lesions smoothly due to the low profile • Treats lesions where stents are not a viable solution • Enables re-intervention PTA causes vessel wall injury. Hyperplasia of the inner vessel wall resulting in lumen narrowing is the natural reaction to this injury. After predilatation, the FREEWAY...
