Expanded platform, trusted data

The Medtronic IN.PACT 018 and IN.PACT Admiral DCBs allow you to choose your preferred tool, knowing you're using DCBs backed by unmatched safety and efficacy data1 — including five-year data on complex lesions.2

With 75% of patients remaining reintervention-free at five years,1 IN.PACT Admiral has the:

  • Highest patency benefit through three years1
  • Lowest CD-TLR rate through five years1
  • Most publications for a DCB

The safety and effectiveness of the IN.PACT Admiral DCB (.035 in guidewire compatible), as established in the clinical studies that were performed primarily via femoral access, can be considered supportive for the IN.PACT 018 DCB. The IN.PACT 018 DCB has not been evaluated in a clinical study.

Clinical case review

Watch Dr. Jun Li, Dr. Peter Monteleone, and Dr. Sameh Sayfo discuss challenging cases where IN.PACT 018 was used after vessel preparation.

The physician panel also discusses:

  • Treating the SFA and popliteal via radial access using IN.PACT 018 DCB's 200 cm catheter
  • The use of directional atherectomy followed by DCB
  • Impact of paclitaxel safety on physician practices

  

Building on proven technology

The IN.PACT 018 DCB uses the same proven formulation as IN.PACT Admiral DCB, so interventionalists can expand their treatment options without compromising on safety and effectiveness.

IN.PACT DCBs are coated with a combination of paclitaxel and an excipient, urea. The unique formulation allows rapid and efficient delivery of drug to the vessel wall.

Watch this mechanism of action animation to see what makes IN.PACT DCBs unique.
