Thrombectomy needs vary based on the size, location, and age of thrombus.
Sometimes subtle low force is needed, other times full-force is required. Certain procedures benefit from continuous force…other procedures only need a quick spot, or touch-up, targeted force. Yet in other situations, pulsed force to rapidly cycle between full and no force is required.
Basic syringe-based systems lack this versatility as syringes offer limited force, control, & volume. Typically, syringes only fill 30ml at a time requiring repeated attachment, stopcock manipulation, filling, detachment, drainage, and re-attachment to catheters. Slow, messy, risky, and inefficient.
