The VIA™ 17 Microcatheter is intended for the introduction of non-liquid interventional devices (such as coils/ stents) and infusion of diagnostic agents (such as contrast media) into the neuro, peripheral and coronary vasculature.

The VIA™ 17 Microcatheter is a sterile single lumen device designed to aid the physician in accessing distal vasculature when used with a guide catheter and steerable guidewire. Variable shaft stiffness ranging from a flexible tip to a semi-rigid proximal section aid the physician in tracking over selectively placed guidewires. The proximal end of the catheter incorporates a standard luer adapter to facilitate attachment of accessories. A single radiopaque marker positioned at the distal tip facilitates fluoroscopic visualization. The outer surface of the catheter is coated with a hydrophilic coating which reduces friction during manipulation in the vessel. The inner lumen of the catheter has a PTFE liner which assists with delivery of interventional devices, such as coils/stents. The VIATM 17 Microcatheter is available in an effective length of 154 cm and an inner diameter of 0.0175 inches. The VIA™ 17 Microcatheter is presented in a tyvek pouch and is sterile, single use only and non-pyrogenic. Accessories: Each VIA™ 17 Microcatheter is provided with shaping mandrels to facilitate distal tip shaping. In intravascular procedures, the device assists the physician in: - Accessing the targeted vasculature to facilitate the delivery of interventional devices, such as coils and stents, and infusion of diagnostic agents such as contrast.
