Catheters to aid in clot management
Fogarty™ Arterial Embolectomy Catheters
Removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the peripheral arterial system.
- Hand-tied using a recessed winding technique to secure balloon to catheter
- Balloon exhibits a symmetry that exerts uniform contact with vessel walls for even pressure and precision traction
- Rounded tip promotes easy insertion for reduced trauma
Fogarty™ Fortis Arterial Embolectomy Catheter
Removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial system.
- Can withstand greater pull-force than Fogarty™ Arterial Embolectomy Catheter.
- The addition of barium sulfate to the catheter tubing provides radiopacity
Fogarty™ Thru-Lumen Embolectomy Catheter
Multi-use guidewire-compatible design enables removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arterial system as well as temporary occlusion of blood vessels, infusion of fluids, and blood sampling
- Fogarty™ Balloon conforms to the vessel to maximize clot removal while minimizing trauma
- Provides the solution for distal thrombus removal in the arterial system
- The addition of barium* to the catheter shaft material and stainless steel markers proximal and distal to the balloon provide radiopacity
*3F Thru-Lumen Embolectomy Catheter body does not include barium
Fogarty Corkscrew™ Catheter
Removal of emboli and thrombi from either native vessels or synthetic grafts in the arterial system
- Corkscrew design increases the surface area for entrapping fibrous material
- Radiopaque and flexible
Fogarty™ Graft Thrombectomy Catheter
Designed for removing organized thrombus and adherent non-thrombotic material from synthetic bypass grafts, specifically, AV fistulas for dialysis access and synthetic grafts for iliofemoral bypass
- Provides a larger diameter range than Fogarty Corkscrew™ Catheter
- The pulling force can be varied by adjusting the diameter
Silicone Embolectomy Catheters
Embolectomy catheters that are not made with natural rubber latex feature:
- Silicone balloon and catheter body
- Stainless steel reinforced catheter body
