Introducing a new, smaller stainless steel stent with a unique Quadrature Link™ System

S-Stent™ is a new-generation corrugated ring stent with a propietary Quadrature Link™ system which provides superior deliverability and enhanced safety while maneuvering in smaller, more tortuous vessels.

In developing S-Stent™, Biosensors answered a large-scale market need for smaller stents. Stent technology was developed primarily in the U.S. and Europe, where many patients have physiques larger than the world average.

S-Stent™ has gained significant market acceptance as angioplasty and related procedures have become more common in Asia, where patients’ bodies and vessel passages tend to be smaller.

Featuring precision undercuts in defined bend points for uniform expansion and improved vessel conformance, S-Stent™ is an ideal stent for a wide range of today's more demanding interventional procedures.

S-Stent™ offers high radial strength and less unsupported vessel surface area when compared to other latest stent designs.

 

     
 
       
 

Features of the S-STENT™

  • Best security due to the superior clamping force of short strut segments
  • Superior crush resistance
  • Low Recoil
  • Smooth insertion with a high internal and outside surface finish
  • Tissue prolapse is reduced by smaller unsupported vessel surface areas
  • Super flexibility, both during and after deployment, due to propietary Quadrature Link™ System
  • Pre-mounted on the high performance RX-1 semi-compliant balloon/delivery system
