What am I looking at?

Recognition, context, and distinction
What does it do, and where will I see it?
Use & procedural context
Provides stable deep access and longitudinal support for device delivery during peripheral arterial, venous, dialysis-access, biliary, and genitourinary interventions, especially when the working platform must extend closer to the target.
What most clearly distinguishes it from similar devices?
Key distinctions
A long guiding sheath extends support closer to the target than a standard introducer sheath; Destination® and Flexor® Ansel systems are representative examples of this deeper supportive platform.
