Left Ventricular ratio by ~25%1
1
- Reduces
PA
pressures
by
~30%
ACCESS PTS Study
- 76% less thrombolytic
drug dosage than standard

DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS
- 50% of DVT patients have PE3
- Removes thrombus more
completely compared to CDT4
- Reduces Post
Thrombotic Syndrome5
PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL OCCLUSION
- Lower 30-day amputation rate6
