Product Description
Bead Block is an embolic device intended for the embolization of the blood vessels of a variety of hypervascularized tumors, including uterine fibroids and arteriovenous malformations. Bead Block is a preformed, deformable microsphere produced from a biocompatible polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel.
The microspheres are tinted blue for easy visualization and are supplied in pre-filled color-coded syringes for added procedural safety and efficiency. The unique structure of Bead Block – PVA hydrogel cross-linked with acrylic polymer – ensures smooth delivery and targeted embolization1.
