  • Publication number: 20230389932
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are clot treatment systems and associated devices and methods. In some embodiments, a clot treatment system includes a catheter having a shaped distal portion configured to access a patient's left atrial appendage. The shaped distal portion of the catheter can be aligned with and/or positioned within the patient's left atrial appendage and used to aspirate clot material therefrom. The clot treatment system can further include a clot capture device configured to at least partially cover an opening of the left atrial appendage. For example, the clot capture device can be aligned with, positioned against, and/or inserted at least partially through an ostium of the patient's left atrial appendage to catch any clot material that breaks free from the left atrial appendage.

  • Publication number: 20230241302
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are aspiration catheters having grooved inner surfaces for removing clot material from the vasculature of a patient, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, an aspiration catheter can include a proximal terminus, a distal terminus, and an inner surface defining a lumen. The inner surface includes at least one groove formed therein and that extends from the distal terminus at least partially toward the proximal terminus. When clot material is aspirated through the aspiration catheter, the at least one groove can provide a leak path past the clot material to improve the ingestion of the clot material through the catheter and inhibit clogging.
