The Trevo Trak 21 Microcatheter is a single-lumen, braided shaft, variable stiffness catheter with radiopaque marker(s) on the distal end and a luer hub on the proximal end. The catheter shaft has a hydrophilic coating on the distal 100cm to reduce friction during use. The radiopaque shaft and distal marker(s) facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. A rotating hemostatic valve with side-arm adapter is provided with each microcatheter.

The Synchro2 Guidewires are a steerable guidewire family with a shapeable tip and are available in straight and pre-shaped versions. The outside diameters of the guidewires are 0.014 in. The guidewires are compatible with existing microcatheters used in common procedures such as those used in endovascular diagnosis and therapy of neurovascular disease. The distal portion of the guidewire tip is radiopaque.

Class I - Dangerous

Stryker Neurovascular has observed an increased frequency of PTFE coating damage occurring on the Synchro Guidewires that may be caused by the practice of backloading the guidewire through the optional introducer accessory. This issue is limited to certain lots of the Synchro Guidewire that contain an older version of the introducer accessory. Due to variation in the manufacturing process of the supplier of the introducer accessory, certain lots of introducers have sharper than intended edges that can peel off the PTFE coating when physicians use a technique known as backloading. Users with impacted product in their inventory are cautioned not to use this backloading technique.

The Synchro SELECT Guidewires are a steerable guidewire family with a shapeable tip and are available in straight and pre-shaped versions. The outside diameters of the guidewires are 0.014in. The guidewires are compatible with existing microcatheters used in common procedures such as those used in endovascular diagnosis and therapy of neurovascular disease. The distal portion of the guidewire tip is radiopaque. For lubricity, the distal portion of the device is coated with a hydrophilic polymer and the proximal portion of the guidewire is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The torque device included with the guidewire attaches to the proximal end of the wire and functions as a steering guide. Rotation of this device facilitates guidewire placement into the appropriate vessel by precise directional manipulation of the guidewire tip. The introducer included with the guidewire is intended to aid insertion of the guidewire into the catheter hub and/or hemostasis valve.
