RIST™ Radial Access Guide Catheter is transforming care for millions of patients suffering from neurovascular conditions1 - like brain aneurysms and stroke - with its new approach to radial.
This first-of-its-kind device has been designed for the unique demands of neurointerventions through the radial artery in the wrist2 - optimizing transition zones for distal navigability in acute bends, and providing proximal stability during deployment3.

TAKING PATIENT EXPERIENCE
TO THE NEXT LEVEL
As the first-ever catheter designed for the radial pathway, RIST™ is raising the standard of care.
Now, practitioners have a full spectrum of access and delivery devices optimized for their patients’ condition and anatomy.
This new radial approach improves patient experience and satisfaction4 - reducing hospital length of stay5 - and has the power to improve patient comfort and quality of life4.
powering workflow efficiency
The benefits of RIST™ go beyond better patient care. With a reliable tool to perform neuroendovascular interventions, operational efficiencies are also optimized - from workload to cost savings.
Treatment with RIST™ enables a shorter length of stay4, reduces post-operative recovery time and staffing needs4,5, and lowers costs associated with bleeding complications4,6.
broadening the horizons
of therapy
With RIST™, neurointerventionalists are empowered with more options to treat complex cases and improve outcomes for more patients5.
The ability to perform neurovascular procedures transradially rather than through the traditional femoral approach has been shown to reduce access site complication and the risk of bleeding5, and may also reducethe risk of mortality6.
