Aspirex™ Mechanical Aspiration Thrombectomy System 

Catheters
Loading

Dynamic 3-in-1 Mechanism of Action

ADVANCED ASPIRATION

Internal helix rotates at 40,000 – 60,000 RPMs creating powerful suction at the catheter tip, aspirating clot through wall-apposed side windows

CONTINUOUS MACERATION

Clot is macerated by the internal helix as it enters the catheter, and is continuously macerated as it travels through the catheter to help mitigate clogging

MECHANICAL TRANSPORATION

Internal helix helps transport clot through the catheter, out of the vessel

Control Unit

Small, portable design; simple to set-up; plug-in and
switch on; connects to both hand and foot motor

Hand Motor

Operated by hand to facilitate single-operator scenarios; magnetic coupling facilitates ease of use while in the sterile environment

Ergonomic Handle

Easy to use handle designed for single operator control; disposable catheter simply clips to reusable portion of the handle

Aspirex™ Catheter

Non-rotating, rounded catheter tip is designed for optimal performance in the venous anatomy; no defined limitation on treatable lesion length

Guidewire

Nitinol core shaft with PTFE coating for catheter support; hydrophilic-coated with a flexible, angled tip to enable lesion crossing; gold-plated tungsten coil to enhance visualization under fluoroscopy

Foot Motor

Optional-use foot-switch to facilitate single- or multiple-operator scenarios

Case Example

Recanalization of an Acute Iliofemoral Deep Vein Thrombosis Using the Aspirex™ 10F Catheter

Dr Michael Lichtenburg, Chief Medical Officer, Karolinen Hospital, Arnsberg, Germany

Venogram demonstrated complete thrombotic occlusion of the left iliac vein (figure 1). Mechanical Thrombectomy was performed with the 10F Aspirex™ Catheter (figure 2). At the 3 months clinical follow-up the patient presented symptom-free. Venous outflow was shown to be patent on the treated side.

Reference

*6F/8F catheters offer a single multi-sided L-shape window, 10F catheter offers two side windows.

The Aspirex™ Mechanical Aspiration Thrombectomy System is indicated for the removal of acute emboli and thrombi from vessels in the peripheral venous system.

The Aspirex™ Mechanical Aspiration Thrombectomy System is not for use in the vessels of the cardiac, pulmonary, coronary and neurovasculature. Please consult product labels and instructions for use for indications, contraindications, hazards, warnings, and precautions.
