The Medtronic Cello Balloon Guide Catheter (REF 1610560) is a neurovascular access guide catheter featuring a distally mounted compliant occlusion balloon designed to support temporary proximal flow control in the cervical vasculature during diagnostic and interventional procedures. The Cello platform is engineered to provide a stable conduit for the delivery of intermediate catheters, microcatheters, and neurovascular devices.
Key Features
Compliant distal balloon for temporary proximal flow arrest
Large lumen designed to accommodate intermediate catheters and device delivery
Reinforced shaft construction intended to balance pushability and trackability
Atraumatic distal tip configuration
Radiopaque markers to assist fluoroscopic visualization
Hydrophilic coating on the distal segment to reduce friction during navigation
Clinical Applications
Introduction and support of interventional devices in the neurovasculature
Procedures requiring temporary proximal occlusion of the cervical carotid arteries
Use as a guide conduit during mechanical thrombectomy and neuro-interventional cases as directed by the operator and consistent with the manufacturer's Instructions for Use
