By GlobalDataThe system comprises a new, next-generation nitinol stent, a pre-positioned post-dilation balloon and an integrated microembolic filter with 40μm pores.
With an asymmetric hourglass design, that is widened at both ends to aid in wall apposition in tortuous anatomy, the closed-cell stent can potentially attain great performance in radial strength, vessel coverage and flexibility. Throughout procedures, the integrated filter of the system can capture both macro- and micro-emboli.
Indicated for adults with clinically significant carotid artery stenosis needing stenting, the system was first analysed in the PERFORMANCE I clinical trial.
In the study, which was carried out on 67 patients at nine European sites with one-year follow up, the Neuroguard IEP System demonstrated a 100% success rate with no stroke and death rate reported in 30 days.
Contego Medical CEO and founder Ravish Sachar said: “CE Marking of the Neuroguard IEP System is an important milestone for Contego Medical and allows us to bring the remarkable safety and performance benefits of the Neuroguard stent to patients in Europe.
“We anticipate launching the product in select countries, as well as initiating a post-marketing clinical study in the coming months.”
