It is designed for the thermal closure of superficial veins, specifically targeting varicose veins and varicosities caused by reflux in the greater saphenous vein system. The kit employs laser energy to induce controlled thermal damage, promoting vein occlusion and subsequent fibrosis as part of endovenous treatment protocols.
This kit is supplied as a single-use, non-sterile assembly and requires sterile preparation prior to use. It is intended for use in clinical settings by trained healthcare professionals, including vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists. The device is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K050021) and is not MRI-compatible. Storage conditions must adhere to manufacturer guidelines to maintain device integrity, though specific sterility or shelf-life details are not provided in the submitted data.
