The Stryker Excelsior 1018 Neurovascular Microcatheter (REF M0031441940) is a single-use, variable-stiffness microcatheter engineered for selective and superselective access within the neurovasculature. This configuration is supplied with a pre-shaped S distal tip, a 0.019 in (0.48 mm) inner diameter, two radiopaque distal tip markers, a 150 cm total working length, and a 6 cm distal segment for distal trackability and stable device delivery.
Key Features
- Pre-shaped S tip geometry intended to support navigation through tortuous neurovascular anatomy.
- 0.019 in (0.48 mm) inner lumen compatible with a range of 0.014 in class guidewires and compatible embolic or interventional devices per the manufacturer IFU.
- Two distal radiopaque marker bands to aid fluoroscopic visualization of the working length and device positioning.
- 150 cm total length / 6 cm distal segment providing reach to distal intracranial targets while maintaining proximal pushability.
- Variable-stiffness shaft construction with a hydrophilic distal coating designed to reduce friction during navigation.
- Single-use, sterile packaging.
Clinical Applications
- Selective and superselective catheterization of the peripheral, coronary, and neurovascular systems as defined by the manufacturer IFU.
- Controlled infusion of diagnostic contrast media into selected vessels.
- Delivery of compatible interventional devices and embolic agents to target sites, in accordance with the device IFU and the labeling of the agent or device being delivered.
- Suitable indications, contraindications, warnings, and precautions are defined in the official Stryker Excelsior 1018 Instructions for Use.
