Intended Use
The EndoWave Infusion System is intended for the controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
EndoWave Infusion System; disposable infusion catheter with removable ultrasound core; control instrument generates/delivers energy. Catheter features multiple side holes in treatment zone; ultrasound core contains up to 30 elements; thermal sensors monitor temperature. Used in clinical setting by physicians for peripheral vasculature infusion. Device delivers fluids while ultrasound energy potentially enhances thrombolytic effect. Modification involves revised acoustic protocol; system maintains original technological characteristics.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing confirmed revised acoustic protocol remains safe and ultrasound core operates as required.
Technological Characteristics
Disposable infusion catheter with removable ultrasound core; instrument for energy delivery. Up to 30 ultrasound elements; thermal sensors for temperature monitoring. Modification: revised acoustic protocol.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring controlled, selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the peripheral vasculature.
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.
