Occlusafe® - Occlusive micro balloon catheter

Optimizing dynamics​

​Terumo Interventional Oncology Division presents Occlusafe, a novel micro-balloon catheter for enhanced transarterial embolization effects.1

Balloon TACE (B-TACE) with Occlusafe was developed to further improve the local control effects (flow redistribution) by altering hemodynamics under balloon occlusion.2

Characteristics

​Flow redistribution

Occlusafe allows you to redistribute the flow in such way that therapeutics agents are preferentially accumulated in the targeted lesion.

Precision

Accurate navigability allows for segmental and sub-segmental catheter positioning with Terumo hydrophilic coating.

No reflux

  • Atraumatic procedures
  • High quality occlusive balloon
  • No reflux: Complete occlusion prevents back-flow and non-target embolization3
  • Arterial flow beyond the catheter tip was maintained even after balloon inflation4
