With a rigid sheath, enhanced visualization, hemostatic control and two snare options, Argon’s Single-Loop and Triple-Loop Retrieval Kits are designed with the rigor of the IVC filter retrieval procedure in mind.
Coil-reinforced outer sheath for strength to detach filter legs from the IVC wall. 15° curve at the distal tip of the snare catheter allows for directional control. Radiopaque bands on the snare catheter, inner sheath, and outer sheath increase visibility for control when capturing and sheathing over the IVC filter. Embedded radiopaque marker increases visibility for sheathing over filter legs. Three independent loops for complete vessel coverage (Triple-Loop). Platinum strands (Triple-Loop) or gold-plated tungsten loop (Single-Loop) for visibility when snaring retrieval hook. Nitinol wire allows for 1:1 torque control and kink resistance. Holes around the distal tip of the dilator for even distribution of contrast during power injection.
