The Aspiration Catheter is indicated for use in the central and peripheral circulatory system, including saphenous vein grafts to contain and aspirate embolic material (thrombus/debris) while performing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and/or stenting procedures.
The Aspiration Catheter is a single-user design, dual lumen catheter. It has a distal radiopaque tip marker and proximal luer-lock port, the proximal luer-lock port is for connection of the Aspiration Line (supplied) and Aspiration Syringe (supplied). The larger extraction lumen comes pre-loaded with a stiffening stylet that resists kinking during delivery but is removed to allow for the removal of thrombus by aspiration.
