Penumbra


The Neuron® Intracranial Access System allows for rapid distal placement into the neurovasculature, providing both robust intracranial support and a wide range of device compatibility.


Penumbra Select™ Catheters enable Rapid Primary Access into final position, eliminating the need for an over-the-wire exchange.


Neuron 5 F Select™ Catheter

•Stainless steel braided proximal shaft for support and torque response with a soft polymer distal shaft to enable atraumatic vessel selection.

•Full-length radiopacity to facilitate vessel selection.

•Lumen accommodates up to .038" wire.

•Built to be used in conjunction with the Neuron 070 for rapid primary access.


Features and Benefits

Neuron 070

  • Built with hybrid coil design that allows for dual device delivery via .070″ (1.78 mm) lumen.
  • Full radiopaque platinum distal shaft.
  • Compatible with Penumbra 5 F (1.65 mm) Select Catheters for Rapid Primary Access delivery to final position, eliminating an over-the-wire exchange.


Neuron 053

  • .053″ (1.35 mm) lumen for primary device delivery.
  • 6 F (2.03 mm) proximal to 5 F (1.65 mm) distal tapered OD.


5 F Select Catheter 

  • Allows for easy selection off of arch into desired vessel.
  • Facilitates atraumatic placement into distal vasculature.
  • Can be used for diagnostic angiogram – .040″ (1.02 mm) lumen.
  • Compatible with all .035″ – .038″ (.89 mm – .97 mm) guidewires.
  • Seamless transition zone with no shelf facilitates atraumatic advancement.
  • 5 F (1.65 mm) Select designed for use with Neuron 070 and BENCHMARK™ 071.



Safety informations

Caution: Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. Prior to use, please refer to the Instructions for Use for complete product indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions, potential adverse events, and detailed instructions for use.



Indication For Use

The Neuron Intracranial Access System is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.

Contraindications

There are no known contraindications.

Warnings

The Neuron Intracranial Access System should only be used by physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional techniques.

Precautions

• The device is intended for single use only. Do not resterilize or reuse. Resterilization and/or reuse may result in ineffective catheter coating lubrication, which may result in high friction and the inability to access the target vasculature location; and/or may compromise the structural integrity of the device.

• Do not use kinked or damaged devices. Do not use open or damaged packages. Return all damaged devices and packaging to the manufacturer/distributor.

• Use prior to the “Use By” date.

• Use the Neuron Intracranial Access System in conjunction with fluoroscopic visualization.

• Do not advance or withdraw the Neuron Intracranial Access System against resistance without careful assessment of the cause using fluoroscopy. If the cause cannot be determined, withdraw the device. Unrestrained moving or torquing the device against resistance may result in damage to the vessel or device.

• Maintain a constant infusion of an appropriate flush solution.

• If flow through the device becomes restricted, do not attempt to clear the lumen by infusion. Remove and replace the device.

Potential Adverse Events

Possible complications include, but are not limited to, the following:

acute occlusion; air embolism; death; distal embolization; emboli; false aneurysm formation; hematoma or hemorrhage at puncture site; infection; intracranial hemorrhage; ischemia; neurological deficits including stroke; vessel spasm, thrombosis, dissection, or perforation.



Indication For Use

The NEURON MAX® System is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.

Contraindications

There are no known contraindications.

Warnings

The NEURON MAX System should only be used by physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional techniques.

Precautions

• The device is intended for single use only. Do not resterilize or reuse. Resterilization and/or reuse may result in ineffective catheter coating lubrication, which may result in high friction and the inability to access the target vasculature location; and/or may compromise the structural integrity of the device.

• Do not use kinked or damaged devices. Do not use open or damaged packages. Return all damaged devices and packaging to the manufacturer/distributor.

• Use prior to the “Use By” date.

• Use the NEURON MAX System in conjunction with fluoroscopic visualization.

• Do not advance or withdraw the NEURON MAX System against resistance without careful assessment of the cause using fluoroscopy. If the cause cannot be determined, withdraw the device. Unrestrained moving or torquing the device against resistance may result in damage to the vessel or device.

• Maintain a constant infusion of an appropriate flush solution.

• If flow through the device becomes restricted, do not attempt to clear the lumen by infusion. Remove and replace the device.

Potential Adverse Events

Possible complications include, but are not limited to, the following:

acute occlusion; air embolism; death; distal embolization; emboli; false aneurysm formation; hematoma or hemorrhage at puncture site; infection; intracranial hemorrhage; ischemia; neurological deficits including stroke; vessel spasm, thrombosis, dissection, or perforation.



Indication For Use

The BENCHMARK Intracranial Access System is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.

Contraindications

There are no known contraindications.

Warnings

The BENCHMARK Intracranial Access System should only be used by physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional techniques.

Precautions

• The device is intended for single use only. Do not resterilize or reuse. Resterilization and/or reuse may result in ineffective catheter coating lubrication, which may result in high friction and the inability to access the target vasculature location; and/or may compromise the structural integrity of the device.

• Do not use kinked or damaged devices. Do not use open or damaged packages. Return all damaged devices and packaging to the manufacturer/distributor.

• Use prior to the “Use By” date.

• Use the BENCHMARK Intracranial Access System in conjunction with fluoroscopic visualization.

• Do not advance or withdraw the BENCHMARK Intracranial Access System against resistance without careful assessment of the cause using fluoroscopy. If the cause cannot be determined, withdraw the device. Unrestrained moving or torquing the device against resistance may result in damage to the vessel or device.

• Maintain a constant infusion of an appropriate flush solution.

• If flow through the device becomes restricted, do not attempt to clear the lumen by infusion. Remove and replace the device.

Potential adverse events

Possible complications include, but are not limited to, the following:

acute occlusion; air embolism; death; distal embolization; emboli; false aneurysm formation; hematoma or hemorrhage at puncture site; infection; intracranial hemorrhage; ischemia; neurological deficits including stroke; vessel spasm, thrombosis, dissection, or perforation.
