Balloon catheters DEB

Drug-eluting peripheral balloon catheters (DEB, DCB) are polymer, long tubes terminated with a special drug-coated balloon used during peripheral arterial angioplasty, i.e., widening of a narrowed artery of the upper or lower limb (PTA). Peripheral arteries are vessels that deliver oxygen-rich blood to the limbs, thus ensuring their proper function. Peripheral angioplasty procedures are performed in patients with atherosclerosis of the limb arteries and persistent symptoms (e.g., pain while walking, tingling, coldness) despite the implemented pharmacological treatment.

How peripheral drug balloons work

Peripheral drug balloons widen the lumen of the pathologically changed peripheral artery, and during balloon inflation, the drug penetrates the intima of the vessel. Peripheral balloons with the drug are used in the treatment of de novo lesions, as well as in the case of re-narrowing (restenosis). Currently, there are two types of drug-eluting balloons on the market, i.e., paclitaxel-eluting balloons and sirolimus-eluting balloons.
