penumbra system 110 aspiration tubing

Penumbra

Summary: The Penumbra System 110 Aspiration Tubing is a medical device used in mechanical thrombectomy procedures, primarily for venous applications. It is utilized by interventional radiologists and neurologists to remove blood clots.

FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date August 6, 2015
Product Code NRY
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 15 studies

The Penumbra System 110 Aspiration Tubing was cleared via the FDA 510(k) pathway on August 6, 2015. Manufactured by Penumbra, it is classified as a Class 2 device under product code NRY.

What It Is

The Penumbra System 110 Aspiration Tubing is part of a mechanical thrombectomy system designed to remove thrombi or blood clots from the vascular system. It works by providing a conduit for aspiration, allowing for the removal of clots through suction. This device is essential in procedures aiming to restore blood flow in cases of acute ischemic stroke or other thrombotic events.

Clinical Applications

This device is commonly used in interventional radiology and neurology settings, particularly in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke where rapid clot removal is critical. It is employed in hospitals with specialized stroke centers and is suitable for adult patients experiencing venous thrombotic events. The tubing is part of a larger system that facilitates the removal of clots from the brain's vasculature.

Indications for Use

The FDA-cleared indications for the Penumbra System 110 Aspiration Tubing include its use in mechanical thrombectomy procedures to treat patients with venous thrombotic conditions. It is specifically indicated for the removal of clots to restore blood flow in patients suffering from acute ischemic stroke.

Practical Considerations

The Penumbra System 110 Aspiration Tubing is typically compatible with other components of the Penumbra System. Clinicians should ensure proper sizing and compatibility with the patient's vascular anatomy. Technique considerations include ensuring adequate suction and maintaining catheter stability during the procedure.

Related Literature

The linked study, 'Endovascular Therapy Following Imaging Evaluation for Ischemic Stroke 3,' likely investigates the efficacy of endovascular therapy in stroke patients, although specific details are unavailable. The study may focus on imaging techniques to evaluate patient suitability for thrombectomy. Limitations include the lack of available abstract and year, which restricts detailed analysis.
