<p>A multi-catheter (20, 22 and 24) emboli containment system is disclosed which is adapted to provide at least one pair of optimized paths (30 and 32) for irrigation and aspiration fluid flow. Through careful design of the cross-sectional area of these paths, the present system is able to be compactly utilized in even the smaller sized blood vessels. The catheter system itself is provided with occlusive devices (26 and 28) to form an emboli containment chamber in which irrigation and aspiration occur. The catheter system of the present invention provides an improved emboli containment and removal system which can be utilized in a wide range of vessel diameters. The system is easy to use and can quickly and efficiently evacuate the containment chamber.</p> |
