Fogarty® arterial embolectomy catheter

Removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arteries of the non-central circulatory system

  • Hand-tied using a recessed winding technique to secure balloon to catheter
  • Balloon exhibits a symmetry that exerts uniform contact with vessel walls for even pressure and
    precise traction
  • Rounded tip promotes easy insertion for reduced trauma

Fogarty Fortis arterial embolectomy catheter

Removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arteries of the non-central circulatory system

  • Can withstand greater pull-force than the Fogarty arterial embolectomy catheter
  • The addition of barium sulfate to the catheter tubing provides radiopacity

Fogarty thru-lumen embolectomy catheter

Multi-use guidewire-compatible design enables removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the arterial system as well as temporary occlusion of blood vessels, infusion of fluids, and blood sampling

  • Fogarty balloon conforms to the vessel to maximize clot removal while minimizing trauma
  • Provides the solution for distal thrombus removal in the arterial system
  • The addition of barium* to the catheter shaft material and stainless steel markers proximal and distal to the balloon provide radiopacity*

*3F thru-Lumen embolectomy catheter body does not include barium

Fogarty Corkscrew catheter

Removal of emboli and thrombi from either native vessels or synthetic grafts in the arterial system

  • For extracting thrombus that is too resistant for an elastomeric balloon
  • Corkscrew design increases the surface area for entrapping fibrous material
  • Radiopaque and flexible

Fogarty graft thrombectomy catheter

Designed for removing organized thrombus and adherent thrombotic material from synthetic bypass grafts, specifically, AV fistulas for dialysis access and grafts for iliofemoral bypass

  • For extracting thrombus too resistant for an elastomeric balloon
  • Provides a larger diameter range than the Fogarty adherent clot catheter
  • The pulling force can be varied by adjusting the diameter
