## Indications for 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.

## Regulatory 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.
