2-in-1 device — guide extension catheter with trapping capabilities

The TrapLiner^® Catheter is a rapid exchange guide extension catheter that combines the ability to provide backup support with the ability to trap a 0.014” guidewire. This functionality helps prevent the loss of guidewire position or unintentional guidewire advancement during catheter exchange, and eliminates the need for alternative catheter exchange techniques.

• Coil reinforced guide extension for flexibility and kink resistance
• Hydrophilic coating promotes smooth device delivery
• Hypotube push rod for enhanced pushability
• Half-pipe channel designed to align devices through the collar transition for smooth device entry

Trapping balloon to maintain guidewire position

• TrapLiner^® Catheter balloon is positioned proximal to the half-pipe channel:
  • Inflates to trap a guidewire against the interior wall of the guide catheter
  • Features a gold marker to identify the proximal end of the balloon

Guide extension clinical benefits

Provides coaxial alignment and deep-seating for:

• Added backup support
• Distal device delivery
• Selective contrast delivery
