Twisted lumen tubing, HelixTwist, is designed to prevent lumen kinks and blockage with an equal balance of stress across the inner and outer lumens as a tube bends. HelixTwist tubing is optimal for pacemakers, breathing tubes, neurostimulation and other applications that require navigation through tortuous pathways within the human body.
Multi-lumen tubing is designed to carry wires and cables or provide a fluid pathway for drug delivery and is an integral part of minimally invasive medical devices. Any blockage or kink in the lumens could jeopardize the success and outcome of medical procedures.
