July 2, 2024 — Biotronik announced the availability of an expanded Maximum Allowed Diameters (MAD) range for the Orsiro Mission Drug Eluting Stent (DES). Diameters 2.25 mm to 3.00 mm of the Orsiro Mission DES can now be extended up to 4.0mm, while diameters 3.5 mm and 4.0 mm can reach up to 5.0 mm.
This new MAD expansion follows the approvals from CE, FDA, and Health Canada obtained in the past months. This update reflects a global effort for the Orsiro Mission stent technology to match contemporary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), enabling practitioners to optimize vessel apposition and conform to tapered anatomies.
Subsequently to these approvals, an updated labeling, additionally to the modified Instructions for Use (IFU), will provide further guidance to practitioners.
Always consult the Instructions for Use specific to your country when applying the Maximum Allowed Diameters (MAD).
