Utility
Systems and Methods for Thrombolysis and Delivery of an Agent
1 Dec 22
A system for aspirating thrombus and delivering an agent including an aspiration catheter having an aspiration lumen and a supply lumen, and at least one orifice at or adjacent a distal end of the supply lumen and in fluid communication with the aspiration lumen, the at least one orifice located proximally of the open distal end of the aspiration lumen, wherein the at least one orifice is configured to create a spray pattern when pressurized fluid is pumped through the supply lumen such that the spray pattern is caused to impinge on a deflection element disposed opposite the at least one orifice when a distal end of the aspiration catheter is immersed within an aqueous environment, and such that the spray pattern upon impinging on the deflecting elements is caused to deflect, transforming into at least a substantially distally-oriented flow configured to exit the open distal end of the aspiration lumen.

Utility
Systems and Methods for Removal of Blood and Thrombotic Material
1 Dec 22
A system for aspirating thrombus includes an aspiration catheter including a supply lumen and an aspiration lumen each extending within an elongate shaft, and an opening at or near the distal end of the supply lumen, the opening configured to allow the injection of pressurized fluid into the aspiration lumen at or near the distal end of the aspiration lumen when the pressurized fluid is pumped through the supply lumen, a tubing set including tubing and having a distal end configured to couple to the aspiration lumen of the aspiration catheter and a proximal end configured to couple to a vacuum source, a tubing compression element configured to externally engage the tubing of the tubing set, and an activation interface configured to activate the tubing compression element to compress the tubing at a location between the proximal end of the tubing set and the distal end of the tubing set.
