Guidewire-Compatible Ileus Tube Sets for Interventional Radiology Placement
Specifically configured for Interventional Radiologists, this Ileus Tube Set is optimized for over-the-wire placement under fluoroscopic guidance. It is designed to work seamlessly with standard 0.035" guidewires, facilitating deep jejunal placement in challenging anatomies.
Product Structure & Features
- 0.035" Guidewire Compatibility: The catheter lumen accommodates standard 0.035" stiff guidewires, providing excellent support during advancement
- Hydrophilic Coating: Distal catheter portion features a hydrophilic coating that reduces friction when wet during bowel traversal
- Tapered Transition: Smooth, tapered transition from guidewire to catheter prevents step-off and minimizes trauma to nasal passage or bowel wall
- Contrast Injection Port: Enables real-time contrast injection to confirm placement and assess obstruction location before balloon inflation
- Ergonomic Hub: Low-profile, ergonomic design reduces nostril pressure and allows comfortable taping
Clinical Applications
Radiologically-placed small bowel decompression, malignant bowel obstruction palliation, small bowel follow-through studies
