Function:
A Balloon Dilator is a medical device designed to aid in procedures such as percutaneous kyphoplasty, where it is used to pressurize a balloon catheter to expand and create space within vertebral bodies. This expansion can help in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures and related conditions. The primary functions of the Balloon Dilator include:
Pressure Control: The Balloon Dilator allows controlled inflation of the balloon catheter, enabling precise pressure adjustments to achieve the desired expansion of the vertebral body.
Balloon Expansion: The device facilitates the gradual expansion of the balloon catheter, which creates a void in the vertebral body, allowing for the injection of bone cement or other therapeutic substances.
Pressure Monitoring: The pressure gauge on the device provides real-time feedback on the pressure within the balloon, helping physicians ensure that the desired pressure range is achieved.
Pressure Release: The Balloon Dilator allows for the gradual release of pressure from the balloon catheter, ensuring controlled deflation of the balloon after the expansion phase.
Features:
Clear Pressure Gauge: The pressure gauge on the Balloon Dilator features a clear display with a visual angle of 68° relative to the handle. This design allows medical professionals to easily observe pressure readings during the procedure.
Smooth Pressure Adjustment: The device is engineered to enable smooth and controlled pressure increase, ensuring accurate expansion of the balloon catheter.
Instant Pressure Withdrawal: The Balloon Dilator is designed to allow quick and immediate withdrawal of pressure, providing flexibility and responsiveness during the procedure.
Variety of Sizes: The Balloon Dilator is available in different specification models, catering to various procedural requirements and patient anatomies.
Ergonomic Handle: The handle of the device is designed for comfortable grip and ease of use, allowing physicians precise control during the procedure.
High-Quality Materials: The Balloon Dilator is constructed from medical-grade materials that meet safety and regulatory standards, ensuring patient safety and device reliability.
Advantages:
Precision: The Balloon Dilator's clear pressure gauge and smooth pressure adjustment mechanism enable precise control over balloon expansion, contributing to accurate treatment outcomes.
Safety: The controlled pressure withdrawal feature reduces the risk of abrupt changes, enhancing patient safety during the procedure.
Efficiency: The Balloon Dilator's design and features streamline the process of balloon expansion and deflation, potentially reducing procedure time.
Visual Monitoring: The clear pressure gauge allows medical professionals to visually monitor pressure changes in real-time, enhancing procedural confidence.
Flexibility: The device's ability to quickly withdraw pressure provides flexibility in adjusting the balloon's expansion as needed.
Patient Comfort: The device's ergonomic handle and controlled pressure management contribute to patient comfort during the procedure.
Customization: The availability of different specification models allows medical professionals to choose the appropriate size for different patients and anatomies.
Accurate Treatment: The Balloon Dilator's features contribute to accurate and targeted treatment of vertebral compression fractures and related conditions.
