A thrombectomy suction catheter is a flexible or semi-flexible tube used to remove blood clots from blood vessels, bypass grafts, or dialysis access sites through aspiration. It is inserted percutaneously and works by applying suction via a syringe or external pump to extract thrombus or other obstructive material, and may also support fluid infusion or serve as a guide for additional thrombectomy tools.
This category includes only single-use devices intended for percutaneous thrombectomy procedures. Devices in this category are regulated as medical devices and are supplied sterile for one-time use, with collection containers sometimes included as part of the system.
