Catheter Capabilities

At Sage Product Development, we take pride in our innovative strides towards advancing medical procedures and patient care. We have years of expertise designing and developing catheter-based devices that are improving patient outcomes and revolutionizing the medical field.

Experience Driven Solutions for Complex Catheter Design

Catheter Design Process

Bringing a novel catheter concept to life takes more than a great idea. It requires clinically informed and purpose driven design, technical rigor, and a clear path from early concept through full-scale commercialization. Each phase introduces its own set of complexities including decisions that can influence performance, manufacturability, cost, and ultimately, market success.

With expert guidance and a strategic development approach, those complexities become advantages. Early design decisions can reduce risk, control costs, streamline manufacturing, and accelerate timelines, ultimately positioning your device for a faster, more efficient and cost effective route to market.

We partner with early-stage medical device teams to manage complexity, reduce risk, and create a clear path from concept through commercialization.

Choosing the Right Catheter Development Partner

Choosing the right partner can make a meaningful difference in the successful design and development of your catheter. The ideal partner brings more than technical capability, they offer depth of experience, proven execution, and the ability to scale with your program.

Key considerations include in-depth technical expertise, rapid prototyping capabilities, scalable manufacturing, strong quality and regulatory foundations, effective project management and communication, startup-friendly engagement models, robust NDA practices, and of critical importance, cultural alignment.

Sage brings strength across each of these areas, with a proven track record of designing, developing, and manufacturing a wide range of specialty catheter technologies, including:

Insights from Within the Heart

A cardiac catheter with integrated pressure-sensing technology, enabling real-time clinical insights and more informed, personalized patient care.

Navigating with Precision

Steerable delivery catheters that enhance procedural accuracy, offering clinicians greater control and flexibility when navigating complex anatomical pathways.

ECMO Catheters

Advanced extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) catheter solutions that represent a significant advancement in respiratory support for critically ill patients.

Minimally Invasive Alternatives

Catheter and implant systems designed to replace traditional surgical approaches, helping reduce patient risk and accelerate recovery times.

Compliant Balloon Catheters

Low-pressure, volume-inflated balloon catheters engineered to conform to patient anatomy, ideal for occlusion and sealing applications.

Precision in Tissue Ablation

An innovative catheter delivering controlled thermal energy for highly targeted tissue ablation with exceptional accuracy.

Illuminating Possibilities

A catheter integrating advanced visualization and illumination technologies, enabling clearer procedural views where visibility was previously limited.
