The FETCH™ Aspiration Catheter is indicated for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from 2 mm or larger vessels in the arterial system.
Device Story
The FETCH Aspiration Catheter is a rapid exchange, low-profile, dual-lumen catheter designed for manual aspiration of emboli and thrombi. The device tracks to the target site over a 0.014" guidewire and is advanced through a 6F guiding catheter. It includes an extension line, a 30 cc syringe for manual suction, a one-way stopcock, and a 40-micron collection basket for filtering aspirated material. A radiopaque marker at the distal tip assists in positioning. Used by physicians in clinical settings, the device allows for the removal of obstructive material from the arterial system, potentially restoring blood flow. The collection basket enables laboratory analysis of the aspirated thrombus.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench, biocompatibility, animal, packaging, and sterilization testing.
Technological Characteristics
Rapid exchange, dual-lumen catheter; 0.052" outer diameter; 0.014" guidewire compatibility; radiopaque distal marker; manual aspiration via 30 cc syringe; includes 40-micron collection basket. No performance standards developed under Section 514.
Indications for Use
Indicated for removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from arterial vessels 2 mm or larger.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An embolectomy catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter that is used to remove thromboemboli, i.e., blood clots which have migrated in blood vessels from one site in the vascular tree to another.
