Penumbra 3MAXC 3 Max Reperfusion Cath. 4.7F x 153cm x 0.062inch (x)

The Penumbra 3MAXC 3 Max Reperfusion Catheter 4.7F x 153cm x 0.062 inch is a state-of-the-art medical device designed for use in the interventional treatment of acute ischemic stroke. This catheter is part of the Penumbra family of mechanical thrombectomy tools, engineered to effectively remove thrombi (blood clots) from the cerebral vasculature and restore normal blood flow to the brain. The 3MAXC Reperfusion Catheter is specifically designed to support advanced stroke intervention procedures and enhance patient outcomes.

Key Features and Benefits

Advanced Thrombectomy Technology: The Penumbra 3MAXC catheter utilizes advanced thrombectomy technology to effectively capture and remove large thrombi from the intracranial vessels. The catheter is engineered to provide optimal suction and retrieval capabilities, making it highly effective in clearing clots and restoring blood flow in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Optimal Size and Length: With a catheter diameter of 4.7 French (4.7F) and a length of 153 cm, the 3MAXC is designed to navigate the intricate anatomy of the cerebral vasculature. The catheter’s dimensions allow for efficient maneuverability and access to various vascular territories within the brain, ensuring comprehensive thrombus removal.

Innovative Design for Enhanced Performance: The catheter features a 0.062 inch inner diameter, which is optimized for compatibility with the Penumbra aspiration systems. This design facilitates effective clot capture and evacuation, enabling healthcare providers to achieve rapid and thorough reperfusion of the affected brain regions.

Flexible and Conformable: The 3MAXC catheter is constructed from flexible materials that allow it to conform to the natural curves and branches of the cerebral vasculature. This flexibility aids in navigating complex anatomical pathways and ensures effective thrombus retrieval even in challenging vascular anatomies.

Effective Aspiration Mechanism: The catheter is equipped with a powerful aspiration mechanism that enhances its ability to remove thrombi efficiently. This mechanism ensures that thrombus material is effectively aspirated into the catheter, minimizing the risk of fragment dispersion and improving procedural outcomes.

Radiopaque Marker: The 3MAXC features a radiopaque marker that enhances visibility under fluoroscopy. This marker allows for accurate positioning and tracking of the catheter during the procedure, facilitating precise thrombus retrieval and reducing the risk of procedural complications.

Compatibility with Penumbra System: The 3MAXC catheter is designed to work seamlessly with the Penumbra aspiration systems, including the Penumbra System 5 and other related devices. This compatibility ensures that the catheter integrates smoothly into existing interventional workflows and maximizes the effectiveness of the thrombectomy procedure.

Patient Safety and Comfort: The catheter’s design prioritizes patient safety and comfort by minimizing the risk of vessel injury and optimizing thrombus removal. The device is crafted to reduce procedural trauma and enhance overall patient outcomes.

Clinical Applications

The Penumbra 3MAXC 3 Max Reperfusion Catheter 4.7F x 153cm x 0.062 inch is primarily used in:

Acute Ischemic Stroke: Effective in removing large thrombi from cerebral vessels to restore blood flow and minimize neurological damage.
Endovascular Thrombectomy Procedures: Facilitates mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute stroke, improving recanalization rates and clinical outcomes.
Other Thromboembolic Conditions: Can be utilized in various interventional procedures where clot retrieval and vascular clearance are required.

The Penumbra 3MAXC 3 Max Reperfusion Catheter 4.7F x 153cm x 0.062 inch is a cutting-edge tool designed to enhance the efficacy of thrombectomy procedures in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. With its advanced design, optimal size, and effective aspiration capabilities, the 3MAXC catheter supports precise thrombus removal and contributes to improved patient outcomes. Its compatibility with Penumbra aspiration systems and its flexibility in navigating cerebral vasculature make it a valuable asset in modern interventional stroke care.
