The Bard 040490 Expand 212 Helical Stone Basket is a specialized medical device designed for the retrieval of calculi and stone fragments during urological procedures. With a 3.0 French outer diameter, it is suitable for use in small-caliber ureteroscopes, allowing access to narrow or tortuous anatomical pathways. The 90 cm working length provides adequate reach for various clinical scenarios, while the 11 mm basket width ensures effective capture of stone fragments.

A standout feature of the Expand 212 basket is its patented 2-1-2-1 wire configuration. This design alternates pairs and singles of stainless steel wires, enhancing the basket's ability to securely grasp and retain calculi and stone fragments during retrieval. The use of a Nitinol drive wire contributes to the basket's kink resistance and torque stability, promoting effective navigation through the ureter and minimizing the risk of procedural complications.

Designed for single-use, the Bard 040490 Expand 212 Helical Stone Basket comes sterile and ready for immediate application. Its no-tip design (filiform tip not included) may be preferred in certain clinical situations where a tip is not necessary or desired. This device is an essential tool for urologists performing procedures aimed at stone removal or fragment retrieval, offering reliability and efficiency in the operating room.
