Origin Story
Angioplasty has been widely used as the primary tool for endovascular procedures for nearly 50 years. Although effective, it has many limitations and trade-offs. We believe we have developed a more effective and elegant solution to build on the standard angioplasty platform.
The combination of time and point force enables effective, stable, and consistent results. The Serranator has 3 or 4 serrated metal strips which contact the artery wall during balloon inflation and create interrupted rows of scoring. This allows for predictable and controlled lumen expansion along these lines as the balloon inflates to nominal pressure. The Serranator can achieve lumen gain at lower pressures than POBA, thereby achieving optimal lumen gain without the need for high pressure.
Why the name “Serranator”
We used the combination of the words “serrate” and “serenade” and formed the word Serranator. A musical theme has been incorporated into our branding as a unique, sophisticated, and elegant way to maintain recognition across global markets.
