Problem
Systemic drug administration for vascular disease often proves ineffective due to dilution and off-target effects, limiting therapeutic impact and potentially increasing systemic toxicity. Precise localized drug delivery is challenging, requiring accurate placement and real-time monitoring to ensure optimal drug concentration at the target site. Current methods lack the ability to effectively control drug distribution and assess the pressure dynamics during infusion, hindering treatment efficacy.
Solution
Liquet Medical's Versus Catheter is a dual-tip infusion device designed for precise localized drug delivery in vascular disease treatment. The catheter incorporates real-time pressure monitoring and a flow-directed placement balloon to enhance targeted therapy. By providing controlled drug infusion directly at the affected site, the Versus Catheter aims to maximize therapeutic impact while minimizing systemic exposure. The flow-directed balloon facilitates accurate placement within the vasculature, while real-time pressure monitoring allows clinicians to optimize drug delivery parameters. This technology seeks to improve patient outcomes by enabling more effective and targeted treatment of vascular diseases.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, and other medical professionals involved in the treatment of vascular diseases.
Features
