Performa® Diagnostic Cardiology Catheters

Improved Shaft Strength

Merit Medical’s Performa® diagnostic cardiology catheter is designed with improved shaft strength for better pushability and torque. Nylon Pebax® material gives the Performa improved kink resistance. Its flat-wire braid design offers greater stability and increased torque. A large inner lumen enables increased flow rates. The Performa’s winged polycarbonate hub offers enhanced handling and control. The radiopaque tip allows shaft visualization under fluoroscopy and ensures accurate placement.
