Bell Balloon Catheter
An angioplasty procedure to open the blockage in blood vessels will be performed. Standard angioplasty procedure includes local analgesia of the groin area and a small cut through which the procedure will be performed. An introducer sheath (thin tube) will be inserted. The Bell Balloon dilatation will then be inserted. The Bell Balloon works in fashion similar to standard balloon with the same physical and behavioral characteristics. Upon deflation, debris from the blockage is withdrawn into the cavity formed between the deflated balloon and its outer capsule. Then balloon is retracted and retrieved through the guiding catheter, together with the captured debris and trap it between the outer surface of the balloon and the inner surface of the membrane.
