US HCPs: Blood return adds procedural complexity with no improvement in post-procedure Hgb levels as seen in multiple single-center experiences. #CAVTStandsAlone#LightningFlash Rx only. See product and risk info: https://t.co/Qtv00hPV0q Clinical results may vary.
US HCPs: ❗Research indicates autotransfusion of unwashed blood for trauma patients is not as beneficial as you may think and is not widely accepted as the frontline therapy. Read more here: https://t.co/P54a6V95DX #TheCompletePEStory
US HCPs: Studies show returning unwashed blood may pose the potential risk of hypercoagulability in patients. Is it time to embrace safer alternatives to autotransfusion? Read more here: https://t.co/4SnLEzmJks #TheCompletePEStory
How has your Penumbra PE thrombectomy experience been. Happy ours went very well and thank you @AdamL1978 for supporting this first in the central IL region. Seems 16F Lightning Flash is quite precise and very maneuverable @SIUcardsfellows@AbhiKulk82@PenVascular@IllinoisACC
New @PenVascular 16F catheter: incredible radial force demonstrated, good flexibility, excellent variable aspiration, comes with a free headhunter! #DVT#IRad
Announcing STORM-PE 🫁 First-of-its kind prospective, multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial evaluating anticoag alone vs anticoag plus Indigo Mechanical Aspiration for the treatment of Intermediate High Risk PE w/ CoPIs @RosovskyRachel@roblookstein#Lightning@PERTConsortium
US HCPs: The EXTRACT-PE subset analysis found that the Indigo system is effective for the treatment of PE in both the main PA and distal branches. When versatility is needed - go with #Indigo for PE 🔥 Rx only. For risk info: https://t.co/wrIewhqVk5 Clinical results may vary.
Just announced at #TCT2022, Penumbra is taking the next step with CHEETAH-ACS! An international, multi-center randomized controlled trial comparing CAT RX + PCI vs. PCI alone in high thrombus burden ACS patients.
New trick for more efficient #PERT thromboctomy. Second access, pigtail next to CAT12, inject during procedure & redirect catheter in real time (just like coronary) see panel C for left side. Right side after complete removal. Saddle PE, hypotension failed med Rx! <55 min,250EBL!
US HCPs: Curious about #SustainedPowerAspiration? Join us Thursday evening for a discussion on the future of coronary aspiration and the results of the #CHEETAHStudy. https://t.co/Gud3JXtpUu
Not sure who I pissed off but 6 ALI cases, 4 PE's, 2 STEMIs in 48 hours. I am almost out of Indigo catheters! And my call is not yet over! Almost impossible to do that and General Cardiology Call at the same time. 😬
CHEETAH reported. Is coronary thrombus aspiration back in business? Continuous pump aspiration clearly a different mechanism of clot aspiration to syringe export systems we currently use in STEMI. RCT is needed now and there won’t be a shortage of sites. This story isn’t done yet
Excited to present the results of the CHEETAH study: Continuous Powered Mechanical Aspiration in High Thrombus Burden Patients at TCT21. Check out the Featured Clinical Science Session II starting at 8 AM EST on Friday. Innovation Theater, Halls A-B Level I. @TCTConference
Hear Drs. @SjayMathews, @SahilParikh, and Metzger discuss the significance of the new #CHEETAHStudy#PowerAspiration data coming out at #TCT2021! Tune in to the World Connect Studio Nov 5th 1-2pm ET. https://t.co/zQnq1dSwST
US HCPs: Removal of aortic thrombus with @WoosterMD using #Lightning12 with live feedback through the tubing. Rx only. For indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions & potential adverse events https://t.co/0Q7EuQvmaE. Clinical results may vary.
