Product Description

The D*Clot¿ HD Rotational Thrombectomy System is a percutaneous catheter-based system available in 6 French. The disposable system consists of an outer sheath through which a rotatable radiopaque spiral shaft extends ending in an eccentric blunt distal tip. Once activated, the shaft rotates at approximately 10.000 RPMs to break thrombus into smaller particles, which can be simultaneously aspirated using a dedicated vacuum syringe. The catheter is a stand-alone system and is powered by a 4.5 VDC alkaline battery pack in the control unit.
