Cook Medical Launches 2.6-F CXI Support Catheter
August 20, 2019—Cook Medical announced the recent launch of the second generation of the 2.6-F CXI support catheter with platinum-iridium markerbands. The new design of the 2.6-F platform is now available in the United States, Europe, and Canada.
According to the company, the CXI catheter is used in small-vessel anatomy or superselective anatomy for diagnostic and interventional procedures, including peripheral use.
The second-generation CXI catheter's platinum-iridium markerbands provide better visualization under fluoroscopy. The catheter comes with additional tip configurations and a new 135-cm length. The device's stainless-steel braid provides responsive torque and pushability, and the 2.3- and 2.6-F sizes can fit coaxially in the 4-F size to increase the amount of support, stated Cook Medical.
