The Stryker FlowGate2 Balloon Guide Catheter (REF 90495) is an 8 Fr x 95 cm guide catheter designed to provide proximal flow arrest in the cervical internal carotid artery during neurovascular procedures. Its compliant distal balloon is intended to support temporary cessation of antegrade flow to facilitate clot retrieval and other interventional techniques.
Key Features
- 8 Fr outer profile with 95 cm working length for cervical access
- Compliant distal balloon engineered for atraumatic vessel apposition
- Large inner lumen to accommodate compatible intermediate catheters, microcatheters, and retrieval devices
- Hemostatic valve and rotating hemostatic accessories supplied per manufacturer packaging configuration
- Hydrophilic coating on the distal segment to support trackability
- Radiopaque marker to aid fluoroscopic visualization of the balloon
Clinical Applications
- Proximal flow control during neurovascular interventional procedures
- Support for mechanical thrombectomy workflows requiring temporary flow arrest
- Delivery conduit for compatible intermediate catheters and retrieval systems within the cerebral vasculature
