Ureteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a flexible ureteroscope to diagnose and treat kidney stones and other urinary tract disorders. However, ureteroscopy can also have some drawbacks and difficulties, such as poor visibility, stone retropulsion, high intra-luminal pressure, and increased risk of complications. That’s why Wellead, a leading medical device company in China that specializes in endourology products, has introduced a game-changer for ureteroscopy: ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath is a ureteral access sheath that uses negative pressure aspiration to remove stone fragments and debris from the urinary tract during ureteroscopy. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath is designed to overcome the drawbacks and difficulties of ureteroscopy and to improve the efficiency and safety of the procedure. Here are some features and benefits of ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath that make it a game-changer for ureteroscopy.
Features of ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath
ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath has an oblique side branch with a pressure vent that can be connected to a negative pressure aspiration device. This allows for continuous or intermittent suction of stone fragments and debris from the urinary tract during ureteroscopy. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath also has a flexible tip that can be passively deflected 180° to the lower pole calyces by the flexible ureteroscope, allowing for better access and visualization of the kidney stones. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath is available in different sizes and lengths to suit different anatomies and preferences.
Benefits of ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath
ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath can provide many benefits for both patients and physicians who undergo or perform ureteroscopy. Some of these benefits are:
Improved visibility: ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath can improve the visibility of the urinary tract by removing stone fragments and debris that can obscure the view of the ureteroscope. This can facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of kidney stones and other urinary tract disorders.
Reduced stone retropulsion: ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath can reduce the stone retropulsion that can occur when using laser lithotripsy to fragment kidney stones. Stone retropulsion can cause stones to move away from the ureteroscope or into inaccessible locations, making them harder to treat. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath can prevent stone retropulsion by creating a negative pressure gradient that pulls the stone fragments towards the ureteroscope.
Conclusion
ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath is a innovative product that can provide many benefits for ureteroscopy. It uses negative pressure aspiration to remove stone fragments and debris from the urinary tract, improving visibility, reducing stone retropulsion, reducing intra-luminal pressure, and reducing risk of complications. ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath is developed by Wellead, a reputable medical device company that has been producing endourology products for over 20 years.
