Penumbra Reperfusion Catheters and Separators As part of the Penumbra System, the Reperfusion Catheters and Separators are in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral - M1 and M2 segments, basilar, and vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) or who fail IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment. Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device As part of the Penumbra System, the Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device is indicated for use in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral-Ml and M2 segments) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) or who fail IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment. Penumbra Aspiration Tubing As part of the Penumbra System, the Penumbra Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the Penumbra Reperfusion Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump. Penumbra Aspiration Pump The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for Penumbra Aspiration Systems.
Device Story
Penumbra 3D Revascularization Device is an accessory to the Penumbra System; assists reperfusion catheters in thrombus removal via aspiration. Device delivered to intracranial target site via catheter; used by physicians in clinical settings. Principle of operation involves mechanical assistance to aspiration to draw clot into catheter. Output is successful revascularization (mTICI 2-3). Benefits include improved recanalization in acute ischemic stroke patients.
Clinical Evidence
Prospective, randomized, multi-center, non-inferiority trial (Penumbra 3D Trial) comparing 3D/Penumbra System (n=74) to Penumbra System alone (n=76). Primary effectiveness endpoint (mTICI 2-3) was 86.5% vs 85.5% (difference 1.0%, 90% CI: -8.4%, 10.3%). Primary safety endpoint (procedure-related SAEs at 24h) was 10.2% vs 15.1%. Secondary endpoint (mRS 0-2 at 90 days) was 38.0% vs 37.0% (p=1.0).
Technological Characteristics
Catheter-based thrombus removal device. Materials: 304 Stainless Steel, Nitinol, Platinum/Tungsten alloy, Gold/Silver solder, PTFE coating, FEP introducer sheath. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO). Single-use, sterile, non-pyrogenic. Dimensions: 4.5 mm OD, 20 mm length. No active electronic components; mechanical aspiration system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (internal carotid, middle cerebral M1/M2, basilar, vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Candidates include patients ineligible for or failing IV t-PA therapy.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A percutaneous catheter is a device that is introduced into a vein or artery through the skin using a dilator and a sheath (introducer) or guide wire.
