Abstract: An endovascular apparatus including a stabilizing element and a rod that may be detachably coupled to the stabilizing element. The rod may be elongated along a longitudinal axis. The rod may have at least one therapeutic agent thereon. The therapeutic agent may be an enzyme, an antibody, a biomarker, or a bioreceptor for neutralizing components of a bodily fluid of a patient. The rod may be inserted into the patient's body to place the therapeutic agent into fluid communication with the patient's bodily fluid. The rod may be formed from silicone and an outer surface of the rod may be etched prior to coating the rod with the therapeutic agent.

Abstract: An endovascular apparatus comprises a catheter shaft constructed and designed for insertion into a venous vessel of a patient; a capture thread positioned in at least one lumen of the catheter shaft and extending from a proximal end of the catheter shaft to a distal end of the catheter shaft for capturing components of a bodily fluid from the patient, the catheter shaft including a plurality of ports for exposing the capture thread to the bodily fluid of the patient; and an enclosure coupled to the proximal end of the catheter shaft. The enclosure includes a feed vessel in communication with a first end of the capture thread and a collection vessel in communication with a second end of the capture thread; and a drive system that controls a movement of the capture thread in the catheter shaft from the feed vessel to the collection vessel.
