X-SIZER® Catheter System is a single-use, disposable medical device intended for the mechanical removal of thrombus from synthetic hemodialysis access grafts. The device consists of a dual-lumen hydrophilic coated catheter shaft connected to a hand-held Control Module. The inner lumen of the catheter contains a hollow torque cable with a helical cutter housed within the distal tip. The outer lumen of the catheter is the path in which the excised debris is removed by vacuum. In use, the cutter is rotated at approximately 2,100 rpm by the motor, which is powered by a 9-volt alkaline battery.
