Product catalog summary
Overview of ALN Removal Kits
The document provides technical specifications and procedures for the ALN Removal Kits, specifically the Straight RS and Pre-Curved RS kits, used for the extraction of ALN Vena Cava filters.
Kit Extraction Diagrams
  • Straight RS (FT.902010): Recommended when the filter head is aligned with the Vena Cava axis.
  • Pre-Curved RS (FT.902010/VS2): Used when the filter head is not centered in the Vena Cava.
Vena Cava Filter Removal Procedure
  1. Pass the pincer kit over the filter head and position the pincer hooks around it using an image intensifier.
  2. Slide the introduction sheath over the pincer hooks to grasp the filter head completely.
  3. Continue sliding the sheath until the black marker band on the pincer catheter is visible, indicating the filter is fully enclosed.
Features of the Removal System
  • Composed of a pincer catheter, dilator, 9FR ID introduction sheath, puncture needle, and J-guidewire.
  • 8 strands with 90° hooks for a simplified and secure procedure.
  • Materials include stainless steel 316 LVM and polyethylene HD.
  • Jugular approach only, designed for the optional ALN filter.
  • CE Mark 0459 and FDA Approval: 510(k) # k113124.
Technical Specifications
  • Straight RS Kit: Includes a 9FR ID introducer sheath, 9F dilator, 7F catheter, and a pincer kit with a handle and 3-way stopcock. The puncture needle is stainless 304, ø 17 G, and the J-guidewire is stainless 304 with Teflon coating, ø 0.035'', length 150 cm.
