The GluttonTM Aspiration Catheters For Stroke Thrombectomy is suitable for blood supply in patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusion (internal carotid artery, middle cerebral artery M1 and M2 segments, basilar artery and vertebral artery) within 8 hours after the onset of symptoms. Patients who cannot use intravenous tissue prolysinogen activator (IV t-PA) or who have failed treatment with IV t-PA are candidates for this treatment.
he GluttonTM aspiration catheters for stroke thrombectomy is a medical device that help remove blood clots from blood vessels in the brain. When combined with thrombectomy, aspiration catheters significantly improve the success rate of the procedure. The aspiration technique allows physicians to remove the clot from the affected artery in just a few minutes, decreasing the likelihood of collateral damage due to prolonged ischemia. The use of aspiration catheters for stroke thrombectomy has been shown to improve patient outcomes and decrease mortality rates significantly. One recent study found that patients who received thrombectomy with aspiration catheterization had a 20% higher chance of achieving a good outcome score, compared to those treated with thrombectomy alone. Glutton is easy to use, making them ideal medical devices for physicians to perform thrombectomy procedures. The catheters are flexible, which allows doctors to navigate through arteries and reach the clot quickly and efficiently. Furthermore, the aspiration technique is relatively simple and straightforward, which minimizes the risk of complications during the procedure. The use of aspiration catheters reduces the time and effort needed to remove blood clots, increasing the number of patients who can be treated with thrombectomy.
