Mechanical thrombectomy for DVT

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2004
Deep venous thrombosis is a common source of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Complications include pulmonary embolism and chronic post-thrombotic syndrome. Chronic post-thrombotic syndrome is characterized by extremity pain, edema, venous claudication, skin changes, and skin ulceration.

The fluid mechanics of aspiration thrombectomy

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery
Large vessel occlusion causing acute ischemic stroke is ideally treated with endovascular clot retrieval, which is increasingly being performed via direct aspiration thrombectomy. Successful aspiration thrombectomy depends on multiple tenets of fluid and solid mechanics, including the application of hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces to lodged clots ...

Supplementing mechanical thrombectomy with neuroprotection

Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, 2016
The success of the 2015 stroke trials changed the indications for mechanical thrombectomy and the landscape of acute stroke care.1–5 A treatment we have always believed to be beneficial was shown, without doubt, to be effective. Systems of care have been designed around IA therapy for acute stroke. Procedural volumes have increased dramatically.

Thrombolysis, Mechanical Thrombectomy and Percutaneous Aspiration Thrombectomy

2012
Over the past 25 years there have been many developments in the percutaneous minimally invasive dissolution and removal of thrombus from the vasculature. Available methods include lysis by drugs, which enhance the body’s native thrombolytic system, and those which involve physical maceration and/or removal of clot. This chapter will focus in particular

Mean platelet volume and mechanical thrombectomy

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2020
Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) is a marker of platelet activity and it is an independent predictor for long-term outcome in stroke patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between baseline MPV value and clinical outcome at 90-days in anterior circulation stroke and large vessel occlusion (LVO) patients submitted to mechanical ...

Indications for Mechanical Thrombectomy

2019
The past decade has seen a significant change in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). There has been a paradigm shift from a predominantly conservative approach to administration of intravenous thrombolytics and to endovascular thrombectomy. These treatment strategies have been backed by multiple randomized clinical trials.

Recent advances in devices for mechanical thrombectomy

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2020
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to the occlusion of a large intracranial vessel (LVO) is a recognized public health problem. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has gained full acceptance: Class A, Level 1 in 2015 after the publication of numerous trials.

The Evolution of Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Stroke

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2016
The natural history of an acute ischemic stroke from a large vessel occlusion (LVO) is poor and has long challenged stroke therapy. Recently, endovascular therapy has demonstrated superiority to medical management in appropriately selected patients. This advance has revolutionized acute care for LVO and mandates a reevaluation of the entire chain of ...
