On July 11, 2024, the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approved the registration of the innovative product "Iliac Vein Stent System" produced by Hangzhou Wei Qiang Medical Technology Co., Ltd."This product consists of a stent and a delivery system. The stent is pre-loaded in the delivery system and is a self-expanding nitinol stent, with tantalum as the marker material. The delivery system comprises a core rod, a sheath tube connector, a hemostatic valve, a handle, and an end piece. The product is sterilized using ethylene oxide and is for single use. It is intended for use in the common iliac vein to treat non-thrombotic iliac vein compression syndrome."The product enhances its performance to meet clinical needs through the oblique and flared proximal ends of the venous stent, an open-loop midsection design, and a segmented stent structure.The pharmaceutical supervision and management department will strengthen the post-marketing supervision of this product to protect the safety of patients using medical devices."# Overall Layout in the Field of Peripheral Venous InterventionsThe Grency® Iliac Vein Stent System, which has been recently approved, is specifically designed for iliac vein stenosis or occlusive lesions. It conforms to the anatomical morphology of the iliac vein and holds nine authorized patents. It entered the special review process for innovative medical devices in China in September 2022 and was officially approved on July 11, 2024.The product adopts an oblique proximal design that does not affect contralateral blood flow, with a flared mouth for enhanced proximal wall apposition; the overall tapered design conforms to the natural tapering of blood vessels; the composite design of closed loops at both ends and an open loop in the middle ensures radial support while maintaining excellent flexibility.
More than a month ago, Wei Qiang Medical's PeriOne™ Peripheral Thrombus Aspiration Catheter was just approved by NMPA.PeriOne™ Peripheral Thrombus Aspiration Catheter is suitable for removing thrombus in peripheral blood vessels, including arteries and veins of the upper and lower limbs, visceral arteries and veins, superior and inferior vena cava, and pulmonary arteries. The aspiration catheter tip is designed in two types: with pre-bend and without pre-bend, with a pre-bend angle of 30 degrees. The aspiration catheter, when used with a negative pressure syringe or mechanical negative pressure pump, can efficiently aspirate thrombus within peripheral blood vessels.The approval of these two products marks a milestone in Wei Qiang Medical's development of a comprehensive solution for peripheral venous disease interventional treatment. This is another significant achievement for Wei Qiang Medical after gaining approvals for the Fabulous® Thoracic Aortic Stent and the WeFlow-Tbranch™ Thoracic Main Branch Stent in the field of aortic intervention.# Inventory of Main Products of the Company1.
