Mitral Dilatation Kit

The Bonhoeffer Multi-Track Mitral Dilatation Kit was developed in collaboration with Dr. Philipp Bonhoeffer and is an innovative and well-established system for Mitral Dilatation.  This consists of a double balloon technique while using a simple, single guidewire approach.  The innovative approach was invented to solve the problem of the mismatch between the round shape of a single balloon and the oval mitral orifice.  The technique achieves consistently higher valve areas post dilatation.

Kit Components

The kit contains a Multi-Track balloon catheter, a matched rapid exchange balloon catheter, a Multi-Track™ angiographic catheter, a dilator and a super stiff guidewire.  

The catheter bodies are DEHP-free and not made with natural rubber latex. The balloons are a thermoplastic elastomer; non-compliant – which will not exceed +/- 10% of the labeled balloon size at RBP, are DEHP-free, and not made with natural rubber latex.
