Diamondback 360 precision

The Diamondback 360 Precision Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) from Abbott is a specialized device used to modify severely calcified coronary lesions, facilitating optimal stent delivery. Here's a breakdown of its key features and USPs:   Key Features and USPs: Precision in Calcium Modification: - The "Precision" aspect highlights improvements in the device's driveshaft, designed to provide more consistent and efficient calcium modification. This results in a more predictable and controlled procedure.   - The enhanced inner driveshaft is designed to deliver better one-to-one treatment motion, providing smoother and more efficient removal of severe calcium.   Orbital Atherectomy: - Like the broader Diamondback 360 platform, this system utilizes orbital atherectomy, employing a diamond-coated crown that orbits to ablate calcified plaque. This mechanism is particularly effective in addressing hard, calcified blockages.   Optimized for Stent Delivery: - The primary goal of the Diamondback 360 Precision is to prepare heavily calcified coronary arteries for stent placement. By effectively modifying the calcium, it enables better stent expansion and apposition, leading to improved outcomes.   Differential Sanding: - The device's differential sanding mechanism allows it to preferentially target calcified plaque while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.   GlideAssist™ Mode: - This feature helps with the tracking, and removal of the device, by spinning the crown at a lower RPM. Coronary Focused: - It is very important to note that this version of the diamondback 360 is for coronary use. Meaning it is for treating blockages in the arteries of the heart.   In essence, the Diamondback 360 Precision offers enhanced precision and control in treating severely calcified coronary lesions, improving the effectiveness of subsequent stent placement.
