Nachdehnung (subsequent balloon) dilatation Explanation: See https://www.cardiovascular.abbott/us/en/hcp/products/percuta... "INDICATIONS The NC TREK RX & OTW Coronary Dilatation Catheters are indicated for: a) balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis, for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion b) balloon dilatation of a coronary artery occlusion, for the purpose of restoring coronary flow in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction c) balloon dilatation of a stent after implantation (balloon models 2.00 mm – 5.00 mm only) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 25 mins (2019-07-04 09:08:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I don't think that "repeat" is an option here because it says "selbstexpandierend" (self-expanding, in relation to the stent) before, which means that the stent will self-expand to a certain size/diameter and will then be dilated further by introducing a balloon catheter. |
