- The outflow lumen of the AngioJet Catheter is closed off.
- This allows the fluid to be pulsed through the catheter, penetrating and disrupting the thrombus.
- Using the Y-spike set, the physician can switch between heparinized saline (normally used for thrombectomy) and a second fluid, usually a lytic.
- After the lytic has been allowed to work on the thrombotic lesion, the stopcock is opened, the catheter is primed and flushed with saline and reintroduced into the clot.
- After opening the outflow lumen for normal thrombectomy, the powerful Cross-Stream® action of the Xpeedior or the DVX catheter can remove the clot.
