Blue Medical has developed a drug eluting balloon that opens a window of opportunities with regard to treating coronary diseases. Supported by independent scientific evidence, we offer a safe, effective and reliable tool to further enhance patient care with accurate local drug delivery. With Protégé NC, the non compliant DEB, safe and reproducible drug delivery is now combined with the proven treatment advantages...

Safe and reproducible drug delivery - Drug incorporated in hydrophilic coating - No airborne particles at any time and no premature release of Paclitaxel - Paclitaxel is only released when the balloon touches the vessel wall - Hydrophilic coating delivers Paclitaxel homogeneous to the vessel wall instantaneously upon contact - Paclitaxel is rapidly and maximally absorbed by the vessel wall - Minimized drug content in contact with operator - Minimized drug loss in bloodstream prior to inflation securing reliable drug dose delivery - Load secured to achieve the therapeutic window within 30...

No procedural limitations - No change in standard operating procedures or handling required - No pre-dilatation required: tight lesion crossing does not influence drug delivery - Multiple inflations will not lead to toxic levels - Therapeutic window achieved after 30 seconds inflation time - Flexibility and characteristics of a normal workhorse PTCA balloon Proven balloon platform - Based on Blue Medical’s proven high-end PTCA catheters Everest and Force - Incorporated latest insights on re-folding and re-wrap interactions - Technology optimized to reach and cross the most difficult lesions...

DRUG DELIVERY NOW COMBINED Non compliant PTCA balloons are commonly used to post-dilatate stents or to treat in stent restenosis (ISR). With the introduction of Drug Eluting Balloons medication was added to PTCA balloon treatment. But the need for precise and powerful dilatation remained. With Protégé NC we succeeded in combining safe and reproducible drug delivery with the proven treatment advantages of a non compliant balloon. Thus reducing procedural costs and post procedural medication requirements and at the same time increasing procedure efficiency, safety and patients comfort. In...
