EkoSonic® SV (Small Vessel) Endovascular System

The EkoSonic SV Endovascular System incorporates the same fundamental innovative ultrasonic accelerated thrombolysis technology used in all EKOS products. This technology’s acoustical properties enhance the clots’ capacity to absorb the lytic, resulting in the acceleration of lysis.

MicroSonic SV Endovascular Device:

  • 3F microcatheter
     
  • 150cm working length
     
  • Central lumen, end hole infusion
     
  • Ultrasound element at tip

The device design provides flexibility comparable to a leading neurocatheter. With this level of flexibility it can easily navigate small vessels within the body.

EKOS Recommends

  • 6FR (0.068” min. ID) guide catheter
     
  • 0.014” medium or stiff polymer tip guidewire

Indications

Neuro Vasculature: The EkoSonic SV Endovascular System is intended for regional infusion of contrast materials into selected vessels in the neurovasculature. The EkoSonic SV Endovascular System may be used for controlled, regional infusion into selected vessels.

The safety and effectiveness of the EkoSonic SV Endovascular System for thrombolytic therapy in the neurovasculature have not been established. Further clinical studies are necessary to ensure that use of devices to deliver thrombolytic therapy into the neurovasculature does not result in an increased incidence of adverse events (e.g., intracranial hemorrhage).

Coronary Vasculature: The EkoSonic SV Endovascular System is intended to deliver physician specified fluids to the coronary vasculature.

The safety and effectiveness of the EkoSonic SV Endovascular System used for intracoronary thrombolytic therapy administration have not been established. In particular, the ultrasound energy delivered by the EkoSonic SV Endovascular System is not intended to be therapeutic, and the safety and effectiveness of the EKOS system for coronary thrombolysis or thrombectomy (i.e. clot disruption) have not been established.
