AngioJet – Rheolytic Thrombectomy System

AngioJet

The Angio-Jet Thrombectomy System is one of the most advanced catheter-based thrombectomy systems available for thrombolytic therapy.  The system is designed to offer safety, power, performance and versatility.  The AngioJet System offers many advantages over alternative treatments; the most important being safety monitoring and balanced isovolumetric flow. 

Blood clots are broken into thousands of tiny particles and vacuumed through a catheter for removal.  This procedure improves the blood flow to the limb which can allow the patient to avoid surgery to remove the blood clot or to amputate the limb.
