Aegisy - Vena Cava Filter
The Aegisy™ Vena Cava Filter is designed for percutaneous delivery into inferior vena cava (IVC) via the femoral or jugular approach under fluoroscopy or ultrasound guidance to offer protection from PE by capturing blood clots in DVT patients. The Aegisy™ Vena Cava Filter can be permanently placed in the IVC for PE prevention or can be removed out of the patient after a period of time (up to and including 14 days) as a retrievable filter. The Aegisy™ Vena Cava Filter is delivered with an Introducer Kit which contains a 6F Delivery Sheath, a Vessel Dilator, a 4.5F Delivery Cable and a 6F Loader. The Filter is connected with the Delivery Cable and preloaded in the Loader.
Precisely Controlled Release
- There is one nut (with screw) respectively at the proximal and the distal end of the filter to allow attachment with the Delivery Cable.
- Precise positioning, accurate deployment
- Avoid "Jump forward" when released
Outstanding Filtration Capability
- Asymmetric lantern design
- A three Y-shaped caudal entry basket
- A six diamond-shaped cranial basket-Filtration only at this layer
- With six struts connecting the two baskets
- Large capacity for clot trapping
- Transverse symmetry offers great stability of clot trapping
Desirable IVC Patency Rate
- Asymmetric configuration-Filtration at only one layer
- Minimize the effect to blood flow dynamics after clot capture
- Central turbulent shear force enables the blood flow to break the clot apart
- Prevent thrombus from spreading in VCF
- Maintain desirable long-term IVC patency
Dual Access - Jugular or Femoral
- The filter is preloaded for femoral use. Reassemble the device according to IFU before usage in jugular. The length of Introducer sheath is 55cm.
Easy to Retrieve (As Retrievable Filter)
- High success rate of retrieval
- Retrieving Hook - At the end of caudal basket
- Using Snare system for retrieval
- Retrieval time - Up to and including 14 days
- Retrieve via the femoral vein only
Safe and Reliable
- Laser Cut - Fatigue resistant
- Highly Biocompatible
- 6F Delivery System reduces vessel injury
- Six securing anchors -Fix filter to vessel wall
- Six straight struts-Prevent device from tilting
- Low incidence rate of migration or fracture
