Vascular Intervention
Our broad range of products work to restore blood flow to vessels of the heart (coronary) and body (peripheral) that are narrowed or blocked. We produce a full range of stent systems, balloon catheters and guide wires for patients with coronary and peripheral artery disease.
BIOTRONIK is a true innovator in the field, having introduced Pulsar, the world's first 4 F-compatible stent for treating long lesions, in 2009 and Orsiro, the industry's first hybrid drug-eluting stent, in 2011. Over the years our wide range of vascular intervention innovations include Orsiro DES, Resorbable Magnesium Scaffold, Drug Coated Balloon Catheters, Multifunctional Catheters and many more. Patient well being is our top priority and has been for 60 years.
Coronary Vascular Intervention
Coronary vascular intervention, also known as coronary intervention or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a medical procedure used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD), which is the most common cause of heart disease. This procedure aims to improve blood flow to the heart muscle by opening blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. It is typically performed by cardiologists in a specialized cardiac catheterization lab, commonly referred to as the cath lab.
Peripheral Vascular Intervention
Peripheral vascular intervention (PVI), also known as peripheral artery intervention, encompasses a variety of different minimally invasive percutaneous procedures used to treat peripheral artery disease (PAD). PAD is a condition in which the arteries outside the heart, typically in the legs and feet, become narrowed or blocked usually due to the buildup of plaque. PVI aims to restore blood flow in these peripheral arteries, relieve symptoms, and prevent complications.
