?:definition
  • Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies (either custom or standard) needed for delivery of implantable stents to appropriate locations inside the vasculature or other body tracts. Items in these kits usually include the implantable endoprostheses (i.e., the stent) and catheters that include a compliant section near the distal end for stent delivery and deployment; ancillary devices (e.g., syringes, needles) and products (e.g., glue, saline, alcohol) may be also included for use during the stenting procedure. The kits may be supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. Stent delivery procedure kits and trays are typically intended for treating conditions resulting from narrow or blocked arteries, and other tube-shaped structures in the body (e.g., bile ducts, ureters, bronchi).
