With the continuous advancement of modern medical technology, innovative medical devices are increasingly used in the medical field. Among them, the diagnostic catheter manufactured by Barty Medical Technology, as a medical device with high precision, high safety and high convenience, has played an increasingly important role in vascular examination.
1. Technical characteristics of diagnostic catheters
Diagnostic catheters are high-tech medical devices that incorporate many advanced technologies. First, the diagnostic catheter is made of advanced materials with good flexibility and wear resistance, allowing it to travel smoothly through blood vessels and reduce discomfort to the patient. Second, diagnostic catheters are able to collect image information within blood vessels in real time and transmit it to doctors for diagnosis by injecting a radiopaque contrast agent into blood vessels and imaging using X-ray-based techniques such as fluoroscopy. In addition, the diagnostic catheter is made of PA and 304 stainless steel, with the distal end made of PA. The hydrophilic coating on the catheter plays an important role in reducing vascular damage, reducing the risk of thrombosis, and improving the efficiency of medical devices.
2. Clinical application of diagnostic catheters in vascular examinations
The application of diagnostic catheters in vascular examinations is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Coronary vascular ultrasound examination
Coronary blood vessels are an important channel for blood supply to the heart, and their health is directly related to the normal function of the heart. Using diagnostic catheters to perform coronary vascular ultrasound examination can clearly display the internal structure and lesions of blood vessels, providing doctors with an intuitive basis for diagnosis. By sending a miniature ultrasound probe into the coronary blood vessels through catheter technology, doctors can observe the thickness of the blood vessel wall, plaque formation, and dynamic changes in blood flow in real time, thereby accurately determining the nature and extent of the disease.
Diagnosis of vascular stenosis and occlusion
Vascular stenosis and occlusion are one of the important causes of cardiovascular disease. Through its high-precision measurement function, diagnostic catheters can accurately assess the degree of vascular stenosis and occlusion, providing an important basis for doctors to formulate treatment plans. In the diagnosis of vascular stenosis, the diagnostic catheter can measure blood vessel cross-sectional area, minimum lumen area and other parameters to help doctors judge the severity of stenosis; in the diagnosis of vascular occlusion, the diagnostic catheter can identify the location and scope of the occlusion, providing Subsequent interventional treatments provide precise positioning.
Diagnosis of vascular malformations
Vascular malformation is a relatively common vascular disease, including aneurysms, arteriovenous fistulas, etc. These lesions often lead to structural abnormalities in blood vessels, increasing the risk of rupture or embolism. Diagnostic catheters can clearly display the shape and location of vascular malformations through high-resolution imaging technology, helping doctors accurately determine the type and extent of lesions. At the same time, the diagnostic catheter can also evaluate the hemodynamics of the lesion, providing a basis for doctors to formulate personalized treatment plans.
4. Conclusion
As an innovative medical device, diagnostic catheters play an increasingly important role in vascular examinations. With the continuous advancement of technology and the expansion of application fields, Barty Medical Technology's diagnostic catheters are expected to achieve more breakthroughs and developments in the future, providing more accurate and effective solutions for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases. At the same time, we also need to pay attention to the safety and effectiveness of diagnostic catheters in clinical applications to ensure that they achieve sustainable development of medical technology while protecting the interests of patients.
