Multi-lumen catheter devices/systems (50) and methods for their use in enhancing fluid flow through a vascular site occupied by a vascular occlusion are provided. In a first embodiment, the multilumen catheter devices (51) are made up of a first, second and third lumen, where: (a) the first lumen (44) is used for delivery of an acidic dissolution solution (55) to the vascular site; (b) the second lumen (45) is used for delivery of a buffer solution to the vascular site; and (c) the third lumen (26) is used for removal of fluid from the vascular site. In a second embodiment, the second lumen (45) is not present, such that the subject catheters are made up solely of the first (44) and third lumens (26), i.e. an aspiration catheter (20) and an insert catheter (40), which insert catheter (40), may be either a total or partial insert catheter. In many preferred embodiments, the lumens of the various catheter components are coaxial. Also provided are systems and kits comprising the subject catheter devices. |
