Balloon-tipped catheters have been used to occlude vessels for years. The catheters used have not been specifically designed for this application. The catheters used were too long, have too large a catheter body, and have openings for blood flow that must be clamped off. Dr. Pruitt’s ideas was to design a catheter to temporarily occlude vessels which had dimensions that would make it more useful and less trouble to work around.
Catheters Offered
Pruitt Aortic Occlusion Catheter: a transaneurysmal option for rapid control of bleeding with a malleable stylet that can be contoured for easier insertion, a central lumen for inflating the 50 cc balloon and an irrigation lumen with stopcock to prevent back-bleeding.
Pruitt Irrigation Occlusion Catheter: provides intraluminal occlusion plus irrigation using a 9F balloon and dual lumen architecture for distal tip irrigation.
Pruitt Occlusion Catheter: for controlling venous and arterial bleeding through a short incision in smaller vessels including tibials, popliteals, lumbars, celiacs, and occluding vessels during aneurysm repair.
Distal Perfusion Catheter: LeMaitre's Distal Perfusion Catheter is the ideal choice for distal perfusion of visceral arteries during open TAA or AAA procedures. Attach to external or internal blood circuit and insert balloon end into recipient vessel.
