1. Design & Technical Specifications

This catheter features a 3.5 mm diameter semi-compliant OptiLEAP™ balloon with a 30 mm length, mounted on a 142 cm Monorail (rapid-exchange) catheter. It includes highly visible platinum–iridium marker bands at both ends of the balloon to aid precise positioning under fluoroscopy. Built on Boston Scientific’s Bi‑Segment™ inner shaft, it pairs a stiff proximal section for enhanced pushability with a flexible distal section for easier navigation.

2. Performance & Engineered Features

APEX catheters deliver notable improvements in both pushability and tip flexibility over prior Maverick platforms—bench testing indicates up to 35% better push force and 35% greater tip flexibility, providing enhanced crossing performance in tight and tortuous lesions. The Monorail version incorporates the TruFeel™ hypotube, offering superior kink resistance and smooth deliverability. The OptiLEAP™ balloon design also minimizes waist formation, ensuring consistent dilation and reducing vessel trauma.

3. Clinical Applications & Advantages

Indicated for pre‑ and post-dilation during percutaneous coronary intervention, this 3.5 mm × 30 mm catheter is suitable for medium-sized native artery or graft lesions and compatible with a wide range of balloon-expandable stents. The Monorail platform supports quicker catheter exchanges, enhancing procedural efficiency. With its optimized balance of pushability, trackability, radiopacity, and controlled expansion, it is particularly advantageous in complex or tortuous coronary anatomy.
