Description

From St Jude Medical

AGA Medical’s Amplatzer Vascular Plug offers a single layer of Nitinol mesh designed for rapid occlusion. The single lobe design of the Amplatzer Vascular Plug provides a device length appropriate for short vessel landing zones.

Amplatzer Vascular Plugs are designed to provide optimal embolization of peripheral veins and arteries through single device occlusion, full cross-sectional vessel coverage, controlled and precise deployment.

A single device from the Amplatzer Vascular Plug Family frequently blocks a vessel that would have required many coils, which makes it a very efficient and cost-effective alternative to coils or surgery. Amplatzer Vascular Plugs have the ability to recapture and reposition, if necessary.

The Amplatzer Vascular Plug is CE marked and FDA approved.
