The SOFIA 88 is a catheter that provides a passage for diagnostic agents or therapeutic devices into the neurovascular and peripheral circulation. Its single lumen and flexible, reinforced shaft support intravascular access; it is not intended for coronary arteries.
The catheter combines coil and braid reinforcement with a hydrophilic coating over 60 cm of its distal shaft. A marker at the distal end is visible under fluoroscopy so its position can be followed during navigation.

Recalls
2 of these are Class II. Class II means a temporary or reversible health consequence. Class III is unlikely to cause harm at all → typically a labelling or documentation fault. Volume alone is not a quality signal: a manufacturer that ships more recalls more.
| Initiated | FDA class | Root cause | Reason | Quantity | Closed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-04-30 | Class II | Under Investigation by firm | Due to an increase rate of balloon pinhole defects. | 5500 devices | |
| 2024-12-02 | Class II | Packaging process control | Sterility assurance; microcatheter inner packaging may contain incomplete seal. | 107 units | |
