The new ART
The new generation of PTCA Balloon Catheter

The Art Rapid Exchange PTCA Balloon Catheter has been developed in the name of Arirang by Myung-ho Jeong, MD, Chonnam National University Hospital and provides those features which are particularly important for fast and easy coronary angioplasty;

Effortless positioning and dilatation

•	l High performance hypo-tube shaft coated with PTFE for excellent pushability
•	l Wire reinforced push transfer segment-to effectively transmit push from the proximal shaft to the distal tip
•	l Precision handling and torque control to facilitate positioning across the lesion
•	l Flexible, ultra-low crossing profile and optimal refoldin
•	l Smooth exit point to ensure the guide wire runs parallel to the shaft

A better balance of track and push

The Art Rapid Exchange PTCA Balloon Catheter has a tapered tip(0.018 u) for easy penetration of the target lesion. Triple-folding balloon ensures optimal repositioning after repeated balloon inflations. The semi-compliant balloon has;

•	l Fast inflation/deflation times for patient comfort and safety
•	l Flexible distal segment to provide superior track through tortuous anatomy
•	l Crossing profile allows low-friction passage through the guiding catheter
•	l Hydrophilic coating to enhance catheter advancement
•	l High-rated burst pressure(RBP)
