Bloomington, Ind. – Cook Medical today announced that the Advance Serenity™ Hydrophilic PTA Balloon Catheter is now available to physicians in the United States. The catheter is manufactured by Surmodics and distributed by Cook Medical.
Advance Serenity is a hydrophilic-coated angioplasty balloon catheter designed to meet the technical needs of clinicians for treatment of patients who suffer from peripheral artery disease (PAD) which includes below-the- knee disease.
