SilverHawk™ LS-C Plaque Excision System
Conquer calcium
The SilverHawk™ LS-C Peripheral Plaque Excision System (RockHawk) is the latest addition to the SilverHawk family of products. This advanced endovascular device enables physicians to treat above-the-knee de novo and restenotic calcified lesions located in the native peripheral arteries. The SilverHawk LS-C is based on our popular SilverHawk™platform and incorporates design changes in the geometry and the material of the cutting blade that significantly reduce the force needed to cut through calcified lesions, potentially resulting in decreased procedure time.
- The RockHawk is based on the SilverHawk Peripheral Plaque Excision System first marketed in the US in 2003.
- With the product feature advancements, the device now has the ability to excise calcified lesions above-the-knee.
- This model incorporates changes in the geometry and the material of the cutter structure to facilitate the break down of complex, hard, calcified lesions that may be resistant to conventional treatment.
- The RockHawk also features a floating ramp that imparts better suspension to the unique cutter, allowing it to stay engaged against the lesion, similar to the pivot heads of a shaving razor.
- The flush cleaning mechanism enables quick and easy cleaning of hard substances like calcium from the tip of the device.
