DESCRIPTION
Goals The goal of this project is to design a catheter that can efficiently remove an embolism from the pulmonary artery. The main goals of the project are: To research and evaluate current technology in pulmonary embolism extraction To design a catheter that can successfully remove embolisms percutaneously and completely without damage to the patient To produce a feasible prototype of our designTRANSCRIPT

Problem There are over 600,000 cases of
pulmonary embolisms annually in the United States, which result in nearly 60,000 fatalities.
Systemic thrombolytics can be dangerous Need a catheter that can quickly and
effectively remove pulmonary embolisms

Goals The goal of this project is to design a catheter that
can efficiently remove an embolism from the pulmonary artery. The main goals of the project are:• To research and evaluate current technology in pulmonary
embolism extraction
• To design a catheter that can successfully remove embolisms percutaneously and completely without damage to the patient
• To produce a feasible prototype of our design

Our Design Combined ideas from multiple existing
medical products• Inferior vena cava filter• Absorbable hemostat• Local clot busting drug administration
Security from multiple backups

Filter Based off inferior vena
cava filter Umbrella-like device Expandable to various
sizes Use of Nitinol

Surgicel or Gelita Material that attracts clots
• Oxidized cellulose polymer• Used clinically for over 50 years
Coat prongs of filter Prevent clots pieces
from going downstream Made by Ethicon

Trellis Catheter Device Inflatable back-end
“clot-catching” device
Local drug delivery
Use of guide wire

Function Parameters Time frame of < 1 hr Embolus located via x-ray angiography Typically done by interventional
radiology or cardiothoracic For use when systemic thrombolytics are
not viable option

Potential Problems Hemolysis causes release of adenosine
when cells lyse Bradycardia or heart failure Renal failure Unpredictable thrombolytic tolerance Mechanical damage to vessel wall
