Baylis Medical Technologies - Nykanen Radiofrequency Wire for Controlled Tissue Punctures

The Nykanen Radiofrequency Wire, developed by Baylis Medical Technologies, is designed to create controlled punctures in soft and delicate tissues. In the U.S.A., this device is employed to cut and coagulate soft tissues, whereas in Canada, it specifically aims to address heart tissue punctures. The wire features a smooth advancement enabled by its flexible PTFE-coated design, with a maximum outer diameter of 0.024 inches and an exchange length of 265 cm. Its atraumatic tip is engineered to prevent mechanical perforation, ensuring minimal damage to surrounding tissues. The unique RF Puncture Technology used in the Nykanen Wire distinguishes it from typical RF ablation, as it creates small openings in tissues rather than large lesions, which is ideal for precise medical applications. Connecting with the ProTrack™ Microcatheter enhances its utility, and the device complies with various regional regulatory standards, although availability may differ by jurisdiction.
