Indications, safety, and warnings

Important Information: Indications, contraindications, warnings, and instructions for use can be found in the product labeling supplied with each device.

Indications for Use: The TurboHawk™ Plus Directional Atherectomy System is intended for use in atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. The TurboHawk Plus catheter is indicated for use in conjunction with the SpiderFX™ Embolic Protection Device in the treatment of severely calcified lesions.

The TurboHawk™ Plus catheter is not intended for use in the coronary, carotid, iliac, or renal vasculature.

CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts these devices to sale by or on the order of a physician.

Medtronic directional atherectomy products are contraindicated for in-stent restenosis.

Product details

  1. Low-profile tip: The low-profile tip of the small-vessel catheter allows the device to maneuver through tortuous anatomies and challenging lesions with greater ease.
  2. Optimized jog: The jog, or bend, in the catheter enhances contact between the cutting blade and the lesion for fast and efficient channel creation — collecting more plaque with each pass. The optimized jog improves engagement and enhances wall apposition for vessel sizes 2–7 mm, providing greater versatility.
  3. Drive shaft: The high-powered, counter-wound drive shaft transmits power efficiently with improved torque and better precision.
  4. Distal flush tool: The distal flush tool uses pressure to effectively clean and flush plaque from the device with fewer steps.
  5. Catheter alignment marker: The catheter alignment marker easily aligns the nose cone with the distal flush tool for faster cleaning.
  6. Torquer knob: Regardless of concentric or eccentric disease, the torquer knob allows for better targeting of the lesion for greater control during treatment.
