Interlock™ -18 Fibered IDC Occlusion System
Device-Type
Embolization Coil
Manufacturer
Boston Scientific
Associates Precision & Control of a detachable coil to the powerful Thrombogenicity of a fibered coil configuration. The Interlocking arm is designed to allow the coil to be advanced and retracted before final placement. Synthetic streamlined oriented & dense fibers onto the platinum coil foster stasis to help reach occlusion. Available in a broad range of product sizes, Interlock™ Fibered occlusion system offers precise treatment and clinical flexibility.
Features and Benefits
Fibered for Thrombogenicity Power
- Every Coil contains multiple dense networks of Dacron® Fibers, each designed to catch blood cells and propagate the formation of thrombus.
- A close-up image of Dacron Fibers (left) shows that the structure of the fiber strands are robust, yet porous, allowing for rapid thrombosis.
Interlock-18 fibered coils perform faster:
- It reaches occlusion over 2 times faster than Covidien Concerto*.
- Penumbra Ruby™ Coils take over 50% longer to reach same level of occlusion*.
Catheter Compatibility
The Interlock - 18 Fibered IDC Occlusion System is designed to be delivered through a 0.021 in inner lumen microcatheter [0.53 mm]
Coil delivery
Single Marker Microcatheter
Double Marker Microcatheter
Shapes
The 2D Helical shape is designed to provide optimal anchorability, as the helical shape allows the coil to be in constant, consistent contact with the wall of straight or tapered vessel.
The Diamond shape is designed to maximize occlusive power by tapering the distal and proximal ends of the coil, maximizing cross-sectional flow disruption.
