An Aero-volution in Calcium Modification

Shockwave C2 Aero is more deliverable and easier to cross than previous generations of Shockwave coronary IVL. This isn’t just an upgrade – it’s an Aero-volution.

  • Improved deliverability¹

    Redesigned shaft and more flexible marker bands²

  • Better crossability³

    New tapered tip and hydrophilic coating⁴

  • Remodeled for repositioning⁵

    More flexible balloon designed for a more compact rewrap⁵

  • More efficient pause time⁶

    50% shorter pause times between cycles⁶

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

New catheter emitter configuration and tip design brings acoustic wave 3 mm closer to distal calcium.

  • The distal and proximal emitters were shifted 1 mm forward for equal distance between emitters and marker bands
  • The distal emitter is also 3 mm closer to the tip on Shockwave C2 Aero as compared to Shockwave C2+
