iVascular Architect Coronary Stent is a stent made of a Cobalt Chromium
alloy called L605. The stent is supplied pre-mounted on a delivery system for
its implantation at the coronary lesion to treat, by means of expansion of the
balloon located at the distal end of the catheter.
The
stent is manufactured by laser cutting of a metallic tube and then it is
submitted to several treatments in order to reach a smooth and glossy surface
finish. The stent design is based on circumferential cells linking which are
axial interconnected means of connecting links that provide different stent
longitudinal configurations. On the other hand, the number of radial cells
adjustment allows stent expanding to different diameters. It is based on an
open-cell design..
