What It Is

The Jetstream G2 System is an atherectomy and thrombectomy device designed to remove atherosclerotic plaque and thrombus from peripheral arteries. It consists of a catheter with a rotating cutting tip and a control pod that allows for precise operation. The system is used to restore blood flow in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by mechanically debulking occlusive material from the vessel lumen.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • Removal of atherosclerotic plaque from peripheral arteries.
  • Removal of thrombus from peripheral arteries.
  • Treatment of peripheral arterial disease involving obstructive arterial disease.

Clinical Applications

  • Endovascular atherectomy to debulk plaque in peripheral arteries.
  • Mechanical thrombectomy to remove thrombus from peripheral arteries.
  • Treatment of peripheral arterial occlusive disease causing reduced limb blood flow.
  • Use during catheter-based peripheral vascular procedures performed in a hospital or qualified outpatient endovascular setting.

Practical Considerations

  • The system includes the Jetstream G2 catheter, model PV20300, and the PV Console control pod, model PVCN100.
  • The catheter uses a rotating cutting mechanism and aspiration to remove obstructive material; careful advancement and operation are required to reduce the risk of vessel injury or distal embolization.
  • Vessel diameter, lesion characteristics, access route, and the need for adjunctive angioplasty or stenting should be assessed before treatment.
  • The device should be used only by clinicians trained in peripheral endovascular and atherectomy techniques and according to the current labeling and instructions for use.
  • MRI safety depends on the specific catheter and system components and the applicable labeling; the device should not be assumed to be MRI safe without verification.
