Balt Nabs CE Mark for Long Sheath

Balt has earned the CE Mark for its Ballast .088 long sheath, a device indicated for placing interventional devices into a patient’s peripheral, coronary and neurovasculature.

Upon commercial release, the guiding catheter/introducer sheath will be available in three different lengths — 80cm, 90cm, and 100cm. The sheaths are designed with braided reinforced segments for improved support.

The device features a progressively softer distal coil segment and a low-profile outer diameter.
