Innovative Slits for Consistent, Even Distribution of Lytic Agent.

Catheter Directed Thrombolysis (CDT) offers many advantages over alternative treatments and is a viable option for managing thrombus.  For over 20 years AngioDynamics has been the market leader for CDT catheters with its innovative slit technology to infuse a consistent, even distribution of lytic agent to an area of clot. The Uni*Fuse catheter uses this time-tested technology to provide faster and more effective treatment for clots, and its sturdier construction makes it more versatile.

FEATURES:

  • Pressure Response Outlets: allow for even distribution of lytic throughout the length of the catheter
  • Occluding Ball Wire: prevents kinking and provides the proper force to activate pressure response outlets
  • Radiopaque Markers: for ease of placement
  • Sturdier Construction: less catheter material is removed when making slits versus making holes allowing for a stronger catheter with more pushability
  • Supports catheter over bifurcation
  • Compatible with a 0.035” guidewire
  • Longer infusion length options to treat longer clots

A standard sidehole catheter design results in the lytic agent following the path of least resistance causing uneven distribution.

The Uni*Fuse catheter with Pressure Response Outlets and the occluding ball wire allow for even pressure distribution throughout the catheter resulting in a more even distribution of lytic agents.
