Artimes Pro Low Profile Dilatation Catheters for Pre-Dilatation in Patients With Symptomatic Ischemic Heart Disease

This is a prospective, non-randomized, open label, multi-center study including 60 patients with symptomatic ischemic heart disease with 70%-100% coronary artery stenoses and occlusions enrolled and treated in this investigational device study.

Patients who require initial pre-dilatation using the study device, and then undergo definitive therapy using additional PTCA catheters and stents, according to standard of care will be enrolled in this study. A maximum of 60 subjects with native coronary artery lesions or occlusions will be treated using the Artimes pro Balloon Dilatation Catheters in a 3:1 ratio using the 1.0mm and 1.25mm dilatation catheters for pre-dilatation and will complete the study within the U.S. This equals 45 patients treated using the 1.0mm dilatation catheter, and 15 patients treated with the 1.25mm dilatation catheter for a total of 60 subjects enrolled and treated.
