Esprit™ BTK

Everolimus Eluting Resorbable Scaffold

Esprit BTK
LIFE-BTK Study

Pioneering a new standard of care for BTK treatment.

The Esprit™ BTK System is the only BTK device that does it all for CLTI: delivers drug, provides support, and leaves nothing behind.1

48% Fewer Patients Require Reintervention2*

  • Patients with Esprit™ BTK System have 48% fewer reinterventions vs PTA at 2 years (9.7% vs 18.6%)
  • 90.3% of Esprit™ BTK patients did not require a reintervention through 2 years

Superior Efficacy, Sustained Benefits through 2 Years2,3

  • 31% improvement (74.5% vs. 43.7%) in limb salvage and primary patency at 1 year, with sustained benefits through 2 years
  • Demonstrated to be as safe as PTA at 2 years in the LIFE-BTK study

Proven Primary Treatment2

  • Addresses vessel recoil and dissection4, with radial strength similar to a metallic stent within the first 6 months5
  • Inhibits restenosis & maximizes patency through sustained everolimus elution6
  • Preserves flexibility for the future with complete resorption.1

How It Works

Watch how the Esprit™ BTK System can treat BTK (below-the-knee) lesions using a bioresorbable scaffold that addresses vessel recoil and dissection4, combined with a drug that inhibits neointimal hyperplasia6, and then fully resorbs over time1, preserving future treatment options.

This device is commercially available for use in select international markets. Check the regulatory status in your geography.
