Coronary balloons

NC Euphora™ noncompliant balloon dilatation catheter

<p>The NC Euphora™ rapid exchange balloon dilatation catheter is a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) rapid exchange system.&nbsp;</p>

Features

Design advances were inspired by customer needs and insight.

We sought input from nearly 2,000 interventional cardiologists and catheter lab professionals at Medtronic-sponsored technology exchanges, advisory board meetings, scientific forums, training events, and peer-to-peer educational seminars.3–6 Then, with specific design targets in mind, we deliberately developed each balloon component to exceed your expectations and complement your expertise.4,5
