An Aero-volution in Calcium Modification

Shockwave C2 Aero is designed to be more deliverable, crossable, re-positionable and efficient than previous generations of Shockwave Coronary IVL. This isn’t just an upgrade — it’s an Aero-volution.

  • Improved deliverability**

    Redesigned shaft and more flexible marker bands**

  • Created to cross*

    New tapered tip and hydrophilic coating*

  • Remodeled for repositioning*

    More flexible balloon designed for a more compact rewrap**

  • More efficient treatment time**

    50% reduction in post-pulsing time cuts overall treatment time by 24%**

Introducing Shockwave C2 Aero

Meet Shockwave C2 Aero

The latest addition to our IVL portfolio leverages our proven mechanism of action (MOA), delivering the same consistent circumferential ultrasonic pressure wave output to crack calcium safely and effectively.

Equidistant Emitter Placement

While Shockwave C2 Aero has a similar size and dimensions as Shockwave C2+, its emitters are placed differently:

  • Both of Shockwave C2 Aero’s emitters are shifted 1 mm forward, making them equidistant from each marker band
  • Shockwave C2 Aero’s distal emitter is also 3 mm closer to the tip
