The AFX Introducer System facilitates the introduction of guidewires, and other medical devices into the vasculature and minimizes blood loss associated with such introduction.
The Endologix AFX Introducer System consists of an Introducer Sheath (45 cm working length) and two Dilators. The system is enclosed in a sterile package. During clinical use, the system will allow introduction of a standard 0.035" guidewire within its inner lumen.
Introducer Sheath: The Introducer Sheath provides a conduit for introducing other interventional devices, including guidewires and interventional catheters, into the vasculature. The main components of this assembly are a hydrophilically-coated, PTFE lined, 55D Pebax introducer sheath, acrylobutylstyrene (ABS) hemostasis valve housing with butyl rubber valve, and silicone gasket assembly, 3 way stopcock/valve, and sideport diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)-free polyvinylchloride (PVC) tubing. The Pebax introducer sheath also includes an embedded stainless steel braid for increased strength and kink resistance, and embedded Vectran® strands for increased longitudinal strength. The distal tip of the introducer sheath includes an embedded radiopaque marker composed of 90% Platinum/10% Iridium.
Dilators: The dilators for the system are used to provide support and stability to the Introducer Sheath during deployment into the vasculature. The dilators are designed specifically for the Endologix AFX Introducer System and can accommodate a 0.035" guidewire through the central lumen. Two dilators are included with the AFX Introducer System. Both dilators are included within the package. One dilator is a single lumen device and one dilator is a dual lumen device. Both dilators are composed of 63D Pebax with 20% Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) for radiopacity and include a hydrophilic coating on the outer surface. These dilators are designed in diameter and length to be placed within the AFX Introducer Sheath component. The dilators have a tapered, atraumatic distal tip. The proximal end of the dilators includes a luer port. The dilators provide stiffness to the assembly so that the introducer sheath can be placed within the vasculature during a standard vascular access.
