Have used a few devices in PE but impressed by our first @angiodynamics Alpha-Vac F18's maneuverability in large pulmonary embolism burden patient recently. Wireless navigation with companion long sheath makes repositioning of catheter so much easier saving time in busy labs.
Dr Sabah Butty at Indiana University Health recently completed his 20th pulmonary embolism procedure with the AlphaVac F18-85 device.
In the video below he displays the ability to navigate the device wirelessly.
“The unique wireless capability and funnel tip technology of the AlphaVac F18-85 catheter allows for a rapid procedure time, as well as maximal clot engagement. Because of these features one can effortlessly navigate the pulmonary vasculature with targeted removal of embolic debris minimizing blood loss”
-Dr. Sabah Butty- Associate Professor of Clinical Radiology & Imaging Sciences Indiana University Health

Check it out… Advantage of a proprietary #funnel compared to an endhole thrombectomy catheter when encountering large clot burdens. As shown, the funnel helps conform and remove material larger than the device itself. #AlphaVac#AngioVac#VTE
Excited to share our case series on left sided Angiovac @LargeBoreOG mass extraction. This demonstrates the feasibility and safety of such approach and calls for bigger studies to confirm. https://t.co/panEIQxG2L @DeeDeeWangMD@PedroMDMSc@BillONeillMD@MarvinEng3 @TiberioFrisoli
Congratulations to our partners @AnasSafadi8, Dr. Danavi, and Dr. Yehyawi on a monumental case using the AlphaVac F18 System! We are proud to be your partners in patient care. Learn more about the AlphaVac System at https://t.co/z0r5XJoRlE
