Penumbra System ™ ACE ™ Reperfusion Catheters
Penumbra’s ACE ™ Reperfusion Catheters (ACE68, ACE64, and ACE60) are intended for use in the revascularisation of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion. The ACE catheter design further increases the distal and proximal lumen sizes, in comparison to the MAX ™ Reperfusion Catheters, aimed to support trackability and increase aspiration power. The ACE Catheters are delivered using a coaxial technique.
ACE68 is designed to navigate tortuous vessels to facilitate clot extraction from proximal large vessels through its large .068″ (1.73 mm) inner lumen with the vacuum power of the Penumbra ENGINE ™ .
