STEERABLE INTRODUCER

Agilis NxT
Clinical Evidence

13 Fr: The Newest Addition to Our Agilis™ NxT Steerable Introducer Family

The market-leading Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer is now compatible with larger catheters to support all therapy deliveries from PFA to RF to CRYO - for an optimal workflow with our One System Solution. Introducing the Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer, Dual‑Reach™ (13 Fr).

Agelis NxT

Market-leading Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer now compatible with larger catheters with the introduction of Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer, Dual-Reach (13 Fr).

ATRAUMATIC TIP
New low-profile design and atraumatic tip

 

SIX OFF SET VENTING HOLES
Smaller diameter (.025”) and 90º o set reduces the likelihood of guidewire exiting through side holes

 

RADIO-OPAQUE TIP MARKER
Ring of platinum iridium enables visualization under fluoro; 4 mm from tip

 

SHEATH TO DILATOR FIT
Low-profile design with lower transeptal crossing force

 

BRAIDED SHAFT
Provides exceptional torquability, pushability and kink resistance with Dual-Reach™ bidirectional 135˚/90˚ deflection to allow asymmetric deflection for more mobility

 

BI-DIRECTIONAL; ROTATING COLLAR
To deflect the tip clockwise ≥135° and counterclockwise ≥90° auto locking

 

HEMOSTASIS VALVE
3-way stopcock for air or blood aspiration, fluid infusion, blood sampling

8.5 Fr: Choose the Gold Standard

As evidenced in more than one million procedures*, for a growing number of physicians, Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer (8.5 Fr) is the introducer of choice when guiding ablation catheters to treat arrhythmias. Tailor to your patient’s anatomy with a large variety of sizes and curves that maintain their shape

Agelis NxT curve options

Curves shown is for 8.5 Fr Agilis NxT Steerable Introducer

Confident steering and stable positioning with exceptional maneuverability

Enhanced catheter stability enables control of tip movements within millimeters along the intended ablation line1

Access hard-to-reach areas with precise maneuverability and auto-lock steering, such as the right inferior and left anterior pulmonary veins1

Enhanced procedural efficiency with exceptional contact force.

60%

Greater catheter-tissue contact force, which may support more durable lesion formation2

 

Reliable, Complete Lesion Creation Through Outstanding Agility and Stability

 

Greater freedom from arrhythmia at 6 months (76.0% vs 53.0%)3 and 18% greater at 12 months (74.0% vs 62.7%)4

 

Complete PVI isolation (left- and right-sided veins) (43 pts vs 8 pts)1

 

Fewer re-do ablations (6 pts vs 23 pts)1 and 17% fewer acute PV reconnections (50% vs 60%)5
