5/3/2023 0 Comments Indigo 7 technology![]() CAT12 features a large 0.131″ lumen and angled tip for additional circumferential sweep. With the maximized inner diameter of 0.082″ and a 7 French outer diameter, CAT7 is 93% the size of CAT8, now with a lower profile. Made of laser-cut hypotube technology, CAT7 and CAT12 are designed to increase trackability and torqueability. CAT7 and CAT12 are the next generation of the Indigo System Catheters. Available in a selection of sizes, the CAT family can provide access to distal peripheral vessels of the upper and lower extremities, including below the knee. The Indigo System CAT3, CAT5, CAT6, CAT8, CATD, and CAT RX are engineered to be robust, trackable, atraumatic, and well suited for the peripheral anatomy. The CAT family of catheters is the foundation of Penumbra’s Indigo System. Lightning comes packaged with the Indigo CAT7, CAT8 or CAT12. Throughout each case, Lightning provides procedural feedback via audiovisual cues. With automatic valve control, Lightning can help the physician focus on optimizing thrombus removal procedures. The built-in microprocessor features a proprietary thrombus removal algorithm that automatically controls a valve in the tubing to provide continuous or intermittent aspiration. Lightning Aspiration Tubing has dual pressure sensors for real-time blood flow monitoring. The Indigo System with Lightning Aspiration Tubing is an intelligent aspiration system powered by Penumbra ENGINE. The Indigo System is used as a first-line approach or rescue therapy for arterial and venous thrombotic events. Lightning ® Intelligent Aspiration Tubing.Indigo CAT ™ Mechanical Thrombectomy Catheter.The Indigo Aspiration System is comprised of several devices: A minimally-invasive device, Indigo enables the restoration of blood flow in such cases as acute limb ischemia and venous thrombus. The Indigo System utilizes the Penumbra ENGINE ® aspiration source capable of delivering nearly pure, continuous vacuum (-29 inHg or 98.2 kPa) to our catheters, enabling thrombus removal in vessels of various sizes. Penumbra’s Indigo Aspiration System can be used to remove emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for treatment of pulmonary embolism.
