Transformational crossing system to prevent amputation and treat complex chronic total occlusions in critical limb ischemia
Versono's CTO guidewire uses ultrasound to enable endovascular surgeons to effectively treat 90% of chronic total occlusions, aiming to restore blood flow and prevent limb amputation in CLTI patients.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Critical limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) is caused by chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in the arteries of the lower extremities. Left untreated, the complications of CLTI result in amputation of the affected limb. The prognosis for those diagnosed with CLTI is comparable to that of an aggressive cancer.
Prognosis
At 1 year post diagnosis:
- 25% of patients will die
- 30% have had an amputation
- 60% are dead by year 5
Cause of CTO
CTO is caused by the build-up and calcification of plaque inside the artery, which blocks the artery. This condition hardens over time and prevents the passage of a guidewire or therapy device through the vessel.
Versono's Solution
Versono has designed and developed a solution to allow an endovascular surgeon to confidently cross 90% of occlusions within 10 minutes.
Technology Overview
This dedicated CTO guidewire uses an acoustic wave (ultrasound) to penetrate through the calcium/plaque. This enables physicians to apply other treatments such as:
- Stents
- Balloons
- Atherectomy devices
These treatments help to unblock the CTO and restore blood flow to the tissue downstream.
