Terumo is bringing its PriorityOne AC aspiration catheter to the United States. The device is used to remove thrombi in the coronary and peripheral arteries and features a fully braided, stainless steel body and a kink-resistant stylet for easy navigation through the vasculature.
The company touts the PriorityOne’s large extraction lumen and the rounded, short-tip design that helps the surgeon push the catheter down its path.
