An apparatus for demonstrating the use of a medical device includes a body adapted for receiving the medical device. The body includes at least a portion adapted for viewing the medical device when positioned in the body. A cover is provided for selectively covering the portion of the body adapted for viewing the medical device. A kit and related methods are also disclosed.

Demonstration apparatus for a medical device and related method

An apparatus includes a catheter having a balloon including at least one first radiopaque marking. A guidewire guides the balloon to the treatment area, and includes at least one second radiopaque marking adapted for corresponding to the at least one first radiopaque marking of the balloon when positioned at the treatment area. Related aspects and methods are disclosed.

Radiopaque balloon catheter and guidewire to facilitate alignment

A balloon catheter () with a shaft () extending in a longitudinal direction and having a proximal end and a distal end and an inflatable balloon positioned along the shaft. The balloon () includes at least one portion connected to the shaft and adapted for moving toward the proximal end thereof when the balloon is inflated. Related aspects are disclosed.

Balloon catheter with adjustable inner member

An apparatus for performing a medical procedure is provided. A catheter includes a tubular body having a plurality of markings indicative of a distance to an end portion of the catheter. A movable indicator repositionable on the tubular body to indicate a position of at least one of the plurality of markings. The indicator may also be provided with a magnifier for facilitating reading any indicia on the catheter.

Catheter with movable indicator

A medical balloon is made radiographic, such as by incorporating a radiopaque foil or film layer. The radiopaque foil or film layer may be placed between an inner layer and an outer layer of a non-compliant balloon wall. The foil or film may provide the balloon with a radiographic quality from a first end to a second end in the absence of an inflation fluid. The balloon may be provided with the foil or film in a manner that provides a first section, such as the barrel, with a first radiographic quality, and a second section, such as the cone, with a second radiographic quality. The film may also be applied as a decal or appliqu&#xe9; to the external surface of a balloon-shaped body. Related methods are also disclosed.
