Angiojet manual for use

The AngioJet SOLENT Dista Thrombectomy Set is intended for use with the AngioJet Ultra Console to break apart and remove thrombus from: • upper and lower extremity peripheral arteries and • for use with the AngioJet Ultra Power Pulse technique for the control and selective infusion of physician specified fluids, including thrombolytic Thrombectomy Devices This channel includes news and new technology innovations for catheter-based thrombectomy systems used to remove blood clots from vessels in the body. Thrombus removal a decade ago was a standard of care for acute coronary revascularization in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The Possis (now Bayer HealthCare Interventional) Angiojet is a device that complements our injector systems. The injectors aid the physicians in diagnosing whether a blockage is present and the degree of blockage. The Angiojet is a thrombectomy device that treats the blockage. Some AngioJet Ultra consoles were shipped without their required operators' manuals, Boston Scientific said in an urgent field safety notice. The device, which is designed to be used during percutaneous coronary interventions, require the use of an operator manual during procedures, and the lack of one could cause a delay, the company said. AngioJet™ Ultra Coronary Thrombectomy System. The AngioJet Ultra Thrombectomy System is a mechanical thrombectomy device for PCI patients with large thrombus burden, for removal of thrombus in native coronary arteries and saphenous vein bypass grafts. The system is designed to mechanically restore blood flow of patients with thrombosed arteries. The AngioJet thrombectomy system is approved for the removal of thrombus in vessels 2 to 12 mm in diameter. The system uses both 0.014- and .035-inch guidewires and comes in lengths ranging from 90 to 140 cm. The catheter requires sheaths between 4F and 6F in size. Using the AngioJet system for extensive clot removal can cause hemolysis. The deciding factor for use of 37186 is that the thrombectomy is a secondary procedure, with balloon angioplasty, stenting, or atherectomy being the intended treatment for a lesion. 37186 cannot be coded with 37184 or 37185. Coding Example 6 (37186): A tight SFA stenosis is treated with balloon angioplasty from an antegrade femoral puncture. AngioJet Thrombectomy is often used prior to Angioplasty with or without Stent placement, to remove dangerous blood clots, making the Angioplasty procedure safer and more effective. The AngioJet is a tiny device attached to a catheter that is inserted into an artery in the groin (the femoral artery). To compare rheolytic thrombectomy (RT) with manual thrombus aspiration (MTA) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI. Occlusive thrombosis triggered by a disrupted or eroded atherosclerotic plaque is the anatomic substrate of ST-segment FDA Clears New Thrombectomy System The latest in thrombus removal devices from Possis has received FDA clearance — the new AngioJet Ultra Thrombectomy System is the next-generation, re-engineered version of the company's AngioJet Rheolytic Thrombectomy System. The AngioJet system is a highly effective thrombectomy device with thrombus clearance rates of 67.3%- 95% (1, 2). Beneficial clinical results have been shown with use of the AngioJet system for coronary and pulmonary artery thrombectomy (3, 4).
