The Complete SE Vascular Stent System features several novel advances, including an innovative dual-deployment delivery system with a unique triaxial design. The new delivery system is made up of an inner shaft, a retractable sheath and a stabilising sheath that reduces friction and allows the retractable sheath to move back freely. This decreases the amount of force required to deploy the stent, thereby making deployment easy and precise.
