Passeo-14 balloon deflates
- 73% faster than Amphirion Deep
- 36% x faster than Coyote
- 24% x faster than NanoCross

Providing dedicated pedal design
- ø 1.5 - 2.0 mm
- 150 mm flexible distal shaft
- Tailored stiffening wire
Indicated for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a lower limb artery for the purpose of improving perfusion.*
The balloon is fully coated with a hydrophilic coating when folded and only partly coated when inflated.
Impressive pushability due to catheter shaft design featuring a unique stiffening wire in the proximal shaft of the catheter, while enabling high flexibility due to a lower profile distal shaft in small, tortuous vessels.

1. Measurements taken by IIB (Institut für Implant-Technologie und Biomaterialien) (Passeo-14 balloon 3 mm x 140 mm) and competitor devices (3 mm x 120 mm balloons), all with 150 cm usable catheter lengths. Data on file at BIOTRONIK. Bench test results not necessarily indicative of clinical performance; 2. Volume adjustment: A 3 mm x 120 mm contains 15% less contrast media volume than a 3 mm x 140 mm balloon. The measured deflation time of a 3 mm x 140 mm balloon was adjusted by 15% to make a direct competitive comparison; 3. BIOTRONIK data on file (IIB report 65/2012).
