PARK CITY, Utah, June 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Transit Scientific announced the FDA cleared the XO ScorePercutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) Scoring Sheath platform for use in iliac, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arterial plus synthetic and/or native arteriovenous hemodialysis fistula.

Key Points: 
  • PARK CITY, Utah, June 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Transit Scientific announced the FDA cleared the XO ScorePercutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) Scoring Sheath platform for use in iliac, ilio-femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal, and renal arterial plus synthetic and/or native arteriovenous hemodialysis fistula.
  • Calcified, fibrous, and/or resilient stenosis may require special scoring or cutting angioplasty balloons with integrated wires or blades on the balloon.The added features focus and improve dilating force but result in large crossing profiles and limited deliverability while increasing cost and inventory.
  • "XO Score transforms regular PTA balloons into scoring and cutting systems," said Greg Method, President, Transit Scientific, Park City, Utah.
  • "Rotating struts allow clinicians to vary scoring depth without increasing device profile.Economically, XO Score offers a direct value proposition:(1) XO Score + (1) off-the-shelf PTA balloon will cost less than (1) specialty PTA scoring or cutting technology."
