Inretio has developed a patented clot-retrieving device that utilizes a protective basket to reach distal clots and minimize the risk of embolization during mechanical thrombectomy procedures. This approach addresses the challenge of incomplete thrombus removal, which occurs in 53-59% of cases, thereby improving revascularization outcomes and reducing complications associated with stroke treatment.

Problem
Incomplete thrombus removal during mechanical thrombectomy procedures occurs in a significant number of cases, leading to distal emboli caused by clot fragmentation. This results in the need for repeated maneuvers, potentially increasing complications and negatively impacting revascularization outcomes for stroke patients.
Solution
Inretio has developed a patented clot-retrieving device designed to improve the effectiveness of mechanical thrombectomy. The device utilizes a protective basket to reach distal clots, aiming to minimize the risk of embolization during the procedure. By reaching distally and opening the protective basket, the solution seeks to reduce the need for repeated maneuvers and improve revascularization, ultimately leading to better outcomes for stroke patients.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes physicians and medical professionals in the neurovascular field involved in stroke care and mechanical thrombectomy procedures.
Features
- Patented clot-retrieving device with a protective basket design.
- Aims to reach distal clots to minimize the risk of embolization.
- Designed to reduce the need for repeated maneuvers during mechanical thrombectomy.
