The Olympus BPCN1015 Nephro-EZDilate Nephrostomy Balloon Catheter is a precision-designed medical device for single-step, controlled dilation of the nephrostomy tract during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and related procedures. Crafted for atraumatic, accurate access, the catheter features a 10mm (30 French) diameter balloon with a 15cm length, intended to facilitate sheath placement and instrument passage with minimal patient trauma. Advanced hydrophilic and silicone coatings ensure low friction insertion, while multiple radiopaque bands provide precise visualization and positioning.
Key Features
- 10mm (30 Fr) balloon diameter, 15 cm balloon length for efficient nephrostomy tract dilation.
- Single-step, controlled dilation optimizes procedural efficiency and patient safety.
- Beveled, atraumatic tip design facilitates easy placement and reduces tissue trauma.
- Multiple radiopaque marker bands for confident positioning and visualization under fluoroscopy.
- Integrated refolding tool ensures a low-profile upon reinsertion and makes the device easy to use in repeated dilation steps.
- PTFE sheath included with tapered distal edge for smooth sheath advancement.
- High rated burst pressure (up to 17 atm) for reliable high-pressure dilation.
