Calcium Reduction by Orbital Atherectomy in Western Europe

The Diamondback 360° Coronary orbital atherectomy system (OAS) is a device dedicated to debulk severely calcified coronary lesions to facilitate stent delivery and enable stent expansion with optimal results. The OAS's main mechanism is the synergistic rotation of the crown around its axis and simultaneously its endoluminal orbital motion. This effect allows blood to flow continuously and it facilitates heat dispersion which results in reduced heat damage to the arterial walls and subsequently to less myocardial damage, at the same time it softens the plaques tissue. It also appears that the microparticles created from sanding the artery plaques do not create any agglomeration to the branching arteries
