The DredgerTM Intracranial Stent Retriever is designed to rapidly restore blood flow by gripping and retrieving clots within the neurovasculature, with minimal compression, protecting against further complications. The specific design of this mechanical thrombectomy device, which is indicated for use within eight hours of stroke symptom onset.

The DredgerTM intracranial stent retriever is is an innovative medical device designed to assist in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) resulting from large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the brain. This device is used by neuro-interventionalists to remove the blood clot that has formed in the brain arteries, thereby restoring blood flow to the brain and reducing the risk of irreversible brain damage. One of the most significant features of the intracranial stent retriever is its innovative varied cell design. This design allows for greater flexibility and maneuverability within the vessel, enabling the device to navigate even the most complex and tortuous intracranial vasculature. With its advanced cell structure, the DredgerTM can successfully capture and extract thrombus, providing superior stroke management outcomes. Another remarkable feature of the Intracranial Stent Retriever is its clamping and engaging technology. This technology ensures the retriever latches onto the thrombus with the right amount of force to dislodge and remove it promptly. With the ability to access and attach to clot material in the distal arteries, the DredgerTM significantly reduces the risk of recurrent embolization. Finally, the Intracranial Stent Retriever is specially designed to offer lowest radial outward force and furthest intimal integrity. This unique feature means the device has a low risk of damaging vessels, producing the lowest outward radial force that ensures maximum patient safety. This feature is particularly essential and critical during neurosurgical interventions of the carotid and other fragile intracranial vasculature.
