Unique Features: Filter and BareWire™ Delivery Wires
Filter
- 120-µm Pore Size
Effectively captures debris while also allowing blood flow
- High-Strength Nylon Filter Material
Is designed to enhance capture efficiency by maintaining wall apposition and protecting the vessel wall from direct contact with the nitinol frame
- Non-thrombogenic Hydrophilic Coating
Is designed to reduce platelet or protein adhesion
1. BareWire™ Technology
Is a proprietary wire technology that enables guide wire-only access through the lesion and ensures stable filter position
2. Proximal Marker Band
Includes proprietary radiopaque markers for smooth tracking through tortuous anatomy
3. Nitinol Frame
Is designed for outstanding circumferential wall apposition—even on a bend—and collapses into a low-profile wrap down during filter retrieval
4. Centered Wire Design
Prevents filter bias against the vessel wall and allows effective capture in all vessel types
5. Radiopaque Markers
To convey vessel apposition and deployment status
6. Pore-free Zone at Distal Tip
Prevents extrusion of embolic material during blood flow
7. Distal Marker Band
Includes proprietary radiopaque markers for smooth tracking through tortuous anatomy
8. BareWire™ 0.019” Step
Acts as a distal stop for the Filtration Element
Delivery Wires for Flexibility and Support
There are three types of BareWire™ delivery wires.
Distal Access
A soft guide wire that provides extra flexibility for successful access through tortuous anatomy
Workhorse
Provides optimal flexibility and support for superb access through most anatomies
Support
Is designed to provide additional support for delivery of the filter in challenging arches
Filter Visibility
The deployment status and the vessel apposition can be visually confirmed because of the device’s radiopaque frame.
