Retrievable Stent Thrombectomy

The Dredger retrievable stent thrombectomy is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove blood clots from the brain during an ischemic stroke. The technique involves the use of a retrievable stent, which is inserted through an artery in the groin and navigated to the site of the clot in the brain. The stent retriever is then deployed, and the clot is trapped within it, allowing it to be safely removed from the body.

Dredger^TM Retrievable Stent Thrombectomy

Dredger^TM retrievable stent thrombectomy is typically indicated for patients who have experienced an ischemic stroke caused by a large clot in a large vessel in the brain. Patients who are not eligible for clot-busting medication may also benefit from it. One of the main advantages of Dredger^TM retrievable stent thrombectomy is its ability to quickly and effectively remove blood clots, which can prevent further damage to the brain and reduce the risk of long-term disability. Additionally, it is a minimally invasive procedure, which means it involves less risk than traditional methods of stroke treatment, such as open surgery.

Features&Advantages

1. The soft tip prevents damage to the inner wall of the blood vessel.

2. Large push wire is easy to manupulate during surgery.

3. Comprehensive sizes meet a variety of different needs.

4. The front-end protective umbrella-type truck net design prevents small emboli from escaping to the far end.

5. The innovative varied cell design realizes capturing and engaing thrombus together.

6. Complete visible provides real-time visual feedback to assist clinicians during surgery.

7. The lowest radial outward force reduces vascular intima stimulation and damage.

FAQ

Q1: What is a retriever stent?

A1: Stent retriever device is a small, flexible, tube-like device made of metal that is inserted into the body to treat blockages in blood vessels.

Q2: How does a retrievable stent thrombectomy work?

A2: A retriever stent works by opening up the blocked blood vessel and allowing blood to flow freely. The stent is inserted into the affected artery or self-expandable mechanism.

Q3: Is a retriever stent safe?

A3: Stent retriever thrombectomy is a safe procedure, but like any medical procedure, it does carry some risks. The risks associated with retriever stent include bleeding, infection, blood clots, and allergic reactions to the stent.
