St. Stone YStar PTCA Y Connector YClickset YSTC9FA

The St. Stone YStar PTCA Y Connector is a precision-engineered device designed for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedures. Its Y-shaped configuration allows simultaneous introduction of guidewires, balloons, or contrast media while maintaining a sealed system to prevent blood loss. The clear, low-compliance body ensures optimal visibility and smooth device manipulation. Lightweight and easy to handle, YStar supports caregivers in achieving efficient, controlled, and safe interventional workflow.

Key Benefits

The YStar PTCA Y Connector enhances procedural efficiency by allowing simultaneous access for guidewires and balloon catheters. Its hemostatic valve minimizes blood leakage, improving safety and cleanliness. The low-compliance, transparent body ensures accurate device handling and visual monitoring. Ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during long procedures. These features streamline workflow, maintain hemodynamic stability, and support precise, controlled manipulation during complex coronary interventions.

The YStar PTCA Y Connector is made from low-compliance, medical-grade polymer to provide precise device control and reliable pressure handling. Integrated hemostatic valves are molded from durable elastomers to prevent blood backflow. The transparent tubing allows caregivers to monitor guidewire and balloon movement clearly. All materials are biocompatible, latex-free, and manufactured under strict quality control to ensure safe, single-use performance in coronary angioplasty and interventional procedures.

• Remove the YStar Connector from sterile packaging and inspect for defects.

• Connect the main port to the guiding catheter using the appropriate Luer or Luer-Lock fitting.

• Introduce guidewires, balloon catheters, or contrast lines through the side ports as needed.

• Ensure hemostatic valves are functioning properly to prevent blood leakage.

• Manipulate devices carefully under imaging guidance during PTCA.

• Dispose of the connector after single use according to institutional protocols.

Use the YStar PTCA Y Connector only under trained clinical supervision. Inspect all ports and valves for damage prior to use. Avoid applying excessive force when introducing guidewires or catheters to prevent device rupture or vessel trauma. Ensure all connections are secure to minimize leakage. Designed for single-use only; do not reprocess or reuse. Follow institutional guidelines for disposal and maintain proper infection control procedures during handling.
