Stents have long been a part of the lives of people. It is critical to keep clots and emboli in check to maintain the vascular health of people. Stent retriever mechanical thrombectomy is used standardly in treatment of strokes. The research done in this article on thrombectomy in acute stroke treatment is groundbreaking. The NeVa thrombectomy device is showing that it is able to collect and therefore remove large clot occlusions from the vascular system and achieve near-full to full reperfusion. The design of the device lends itself very well to capturing these clots. Swine are the model of choice for this study because their vascular system so closely matches the human vascular system.
We’re proud of the work our animals help researchers accomplish and look forward to contributing research swine to help in similar breakthroughs in the future.
In addition to offering live porcine models and porcine tissue, we’re also happy to offer clients our expertise in selecting the right animal model and/or animal tissue to utilize in their research.
