## Indications for Use

The ANGIODYNAMICS WorkHorse™ Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Balloon is indicated for general Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) of the Iliac, Femoral, and Renal arteries and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. These catheters are not designed to be used in the coronary arteries.

## Device Story

WorkHorse™ Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Balloon is a catheter-based device used by physicians in clinical settings to treat obstructive vascular lesions. Device is inserted percutaneously into iliac, femoral, or renal arteries, or arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. Balloon inflation facilitates dilation of stenotic vessels to improve blood flow. Device serves as a mechanical tool for angioplasty procedures; no electronic or software components involved. Benefits include restoration of vessel patency and improved hemodynamics in peripheral and dialysis access sites.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty balloon catheter. Mechanical device; no energy source, software, or connectivity. Materials and dimensions consistent with standard PTA catheter design for peripheral and dialysis access applications.

## Regulatory Identification

A percutaneous catheter is a device that is introduced into a vein or artery through the skin using a dilator and a sheath (introducer) or guide wire.
