This technical report describes the successful use of the newly introduced Distal Access Catheter, initially designed to work with the Merci Retrieval System with the Penumbra aspiration system as the main aspiration catheter. Both devices, one a clot retriever and the other a thrombo-aspiration device, can be used and deployed via the same catheter saving time during acute stoke intervention. Moreover, the larger inner diameter of the distal access catheter may allow more effective clot aspiration.

Life Threatening

Prior to the introduction of successful intravascular countertraction techniques, options for lead extraction were limited and dedicated tools were non-existent. The significant morbidity and mortality associated with these early extraction techniques limited their application to life-threatening situations such as infection and sepsis. The past 30 years have witnessed significant advances in lead extraction technology, resulting in safer and more efficacious techniques and tools. This evolution occurred out of necessity, similar to the pressure of natural selection weeding out the ineffective and highly morbid techniques while fostering the development of safe, successful and more simple methods. Future developments in lead extraction are likely to focus on new tools that will allow us to provide comprehensive device management and the design of new leads conceived to facilitate future extraction. With the development of these new methods and novel tools, the technique of lead extraction will continue to require operators that are well versed in several methods of extraction. Garnering new skills while remembering the lessons of the past will enable extraction technologies to advance without repeating previous mistakes.
