The Approach microwire line has several product features that address the challenging anatomy of the leg, an important step in the development of PAD medical technology,” said Rob Lyles, vice president and global leader of Cook Medical’s peripheral intervention division. “This latest advancement illustrates Cook’s commitment to exploring every possible technology to treat PAD. At Cook, we continuously strive to improve the quality of our products and, in turn, improve the quality of patient outcomes.”
