ACtive Catheterization for EndovaScular TreatmentS — ACCESS  

Carotid Stenosis Clinical Trial

Official title: ACCESS : ACtive Catheterization for EndovaScular TreatmentS

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and technical success of the Basecamp Vascular controllable directional GECKO guidewire when used to facilitate endovascular access to the targeted vessel in order to treat the vascular lesion.

Clinical Trial Description

The Basecamp Vascular trial is a prospective monocenter, non-randomized, open clinical investigation of their controllable directional GECKO guidewire which has not yet received the CE mark. The GECKO active guidewire is a sterile, single-use device to be used by interventional neuroradiologists (INR) to position a distal access catheter (DAC). The device is a system composed of a deflector (the guide) and a handle. The handle contains the battery and integrated electronics. The device can be activated using buttons on the handle. When the user presses a button, a current is transmitted along the guide to its end: this allows the guide to bend (two possible curves). The end of the device can then take an "S" shape. In INR, the placement of a DAC (at the cervical level) is the first step of an endovascular intervention (Primary Access). This is followed by the treatment phase of the vascular pathology with other medical devices (example: embolization, angioplasty). The GECKO active guide is a system that facilitates endovascular navigation and allows the positioning of the DAC via vascular access (femoral or radial artery). The GECKO device is intended to introduce devices used for treatment, at a desired anatomical location (cervical carotid artery, for example) in the central circulatory system. The GECKO guidewire itself is not meant to perform a treatment but is used to set the primary access that will allow performance of the treatments. ;
