CREDO® is a high radial force laser cut closed cell stent with specific indication for both elective and acute intracranial stenosis. It is available in diameters of 3.0 mm, 4.0 mm and 5.0 mm and lengths of 15 mm and 20 mm, allowing to treat vessels from 2mm to 5mm in diameter. All references pass through 0.0165” internal lumen microcatheters. The manufacturer recommends its use through the NeuroSpeed® double lumen intracranial balloon for angioplasty.

The use of CREDO® through NeuroSpeed® allows the treatment of intracranial stenoses through angioplasty and subsequent stent release without the need for exchange maneuvers. This increases procedural safety by reducing time and handling.

Features:

• The Credo design improves the apposition to the vessel wall and provides good adaptability, combined with its high specific radial force to keep the stenotic lesion open
• Its closed cell design provides optimal plate coverage minimizing the risk of plate fragment embolism during dilation
• Minimal friction during deployment thanks to its electro-polished Surface
• This avoids irritation of the vessel wall and maximizes light permeability as a result of the stent’s low structural profile and its radiopaque markers
• Its release is very precise thanks to the guide with a safety system (“GP” technology) and the possibility of resheatable up to 95% of the length of the stent
• Features high radio-opacity markers for optimal placement control
