SX-ELLA Stent Esophageal Degradable BD - BD STENT

Biodegradation
Excellent flexibility
Radiopaque markers
Splittable olive tip

Basic Description

Stent system for treatment of benign esophageal strictures.

Indications

BD Stent is intended for patients aged 18 and older and indicated for management of refractory benign esophageal stenoses:

refractory esophageal stenoses (peptic, caustic, or anastomotic) in which the standard therapy with repeated dilation failed.

Contraindications

Inability to pass the 9.4 mm (28 F) delivery system through the stricture
Benign stricture in the upper part of esophagus too close to the cricopharyngeal muscle
Patients with benign strictures due to previously performed laryngectomy

MRI Safety Information

The product is MRI Conditional, compatible with 1.5-Tesla and 3-Tesla magnetic field.

Features / Benefits

Stent integrity and radial force of the stent is maintained for 6 – 8 weeks following implantation / Extended period of dilation compared to conventional methods
Stent disintegration occurs 11 - 12 weeks following implantation / No need for removal
Dual “flared ends” stent design / Reduced migration rates
Radiopaque markers at both stent ends / Accurate stent positioning

Additional Description

The stent is delivered sterile and packed separately from the delivery system. It is manually loaded into the delivery system immediately prior to implantation.
The use of a 0.035” (0.89 mm) / 220 cm stiff guide wire is recommended.

NOTES

The pH influences the process of degradation of the stent. Low pH (e.g. due to GE reflux) accelerates the degradation.

Delivery system
Active length: 75 cm
Proximal diameter: 5.9 mm (18 F)
Distal diameter (containing the stent): 9.4 mm (28 F)
