Step 7. To redirect to a different branch or to the other lung, the diagnostic catheter is reintroduced over the wire and the above steps are repeated. If aspiration is unsuccessful at removing thrombi, especially when the latter are impacted in the distal vessels, the self‐ deploying disks can be advanced over the wire inside the F20 and unsheathed in the distal vessel (Figure 16.10).
Once deployed, they are withdrawn into the F20 while syringe aspiration is activated.
Tip: Merely withdrawing the disks without negative suctioning is unlikely to be effective in thrombus removal.

Notes: The endpoint of the aspiration process is poorly defined. The authors typically terminate the procedure when one or more of the following occurs: (i) patient significantly feels better with improvement in saturation and/or heart rate; (ii) significant thrombus has been removed with evidence of better perfusion on

angiography; (iii) significant improvement in PA pressure and/or cardiac output has been achieved; and (iv) no thrombi are being removed despite multiple passes, typically seen in the more chronic emboli.
Step 8. Hemostasis can be achieved either with a mattress or figure‐of‐8 suture, or with a closure device (Proglide) deployed prior to insertion of the large sheath.
Note: Large catheter aspiration is attractive for patients with high‐risk PE with contraindication to thrombolysis and for patients with intermediate‐risk PE at risk for deterioration, especially when thrombolytic use is to be avoided. Patients stabilized with this procedure may avoid ICU stay. Potential complications include those of vascular access, tricuspid valve or cardiac injury, PA perforation/hemorrhage, or hemodynamic/pulmonary deterioration related to distal embolization of saddle or intracardiac thrombi.
Penumbra
The Penumbra’s Indigo® system (Penumbra Inc., Alameda, CA, USA) does not have a specific approval for use in the pulmonary arteries, but it is FDA approved for removal of thrombus in the peripheral venous and arterial system. The thrombectomy catheters suction by continuous vacuum generated aspiration through its Penumbra Engine™ (Penumbra Inc., Alameda, CA, USA) aspiration source.
For the purpose of thrombectomy for proximal pulmonary emboli, the largest catheter CAT8 (Continuous Aspiration Mechanical Thrombectomy Catheter 8) should be used. The CAT8 is available in three shapes: Straight (85 cm), Torq (85 cm), and XTorq (115 cm). The author prefers the XTorq shape (115 cm), given length and ability for circumferential aspiration. A #8 separator is needed to clear the lumen of the aspiration catheter during active suction.
Step 1. Obtain ultrasound‐guided venous access (femoral or jugular) using standard technique. A 65 or
90 cm 8 Fr sheath guide (Terumo Pinnacle
®
Destination®, TERUMO Medical Corporation, Somerset, NJ, USA), or long sheath should be advanced over a wire (0.035 angled or J‐tip wire) into the RA or proximal portion of the targeted pulmonary artery.
Tips: (i) A 90 cm length sheath cannot be used if the CAT8 straight (85 cm) or CAT8 Torq (85 cm) is used
due to length mismatch. (ii) If using a Cook Flexor
®
sheath (Cook Medical LLC, Bloomington, IN, USA), with a Check‐Flo valve a 10 Fr is required to accommodate the CAT8. (iii) A 6 Fr JR4 catheter can be telescoped through the sheath guide or long sheath to help steer the guidewire into the pulmonary artery.
Step 2. Once access is obtained, the patient is heparinized (80–100 U/kg bolus) to an ACT ≥250.
Step 3. The packaging of the aspiration catheter and its lumen and separator are flushed with heparinized saline. The catheter is inserted through a rotating hemostasis valve on the guide sheath or through the valve of the sheath using the peelable introducer sheath on the aspiration catheter. Once inserted the peelable sheath is removed from the aspiration catheter.
Tip: The peelable sheath can be kept on the catheter in the event the catheter needs to be removed from the sheath and then reinserted.
Step 4. The aspiration catheter is advanced over the wire into the targeted segment in the pulmonary artery and positioned immediately proximal to the thrombus. The guidewire is then removed. Contrast can be injected through the aspiration catheter to obtain a selective pulmonary angiogram to visualize thrombus locations. If not contraindicated, a small bolus of tpa (2–5 mg) can also be injected through the aspiration catheter.

Step 5. Aspiration tubing is then attached to the aspiration pump and turned on. The valve on the aspiration tubing should be in the OFF position. Gauge should read −20 mmHg or greater.
Step 6. The aspiration catheter is advanced and embedded in the thrombus. A #8 separator is then inserted through the rotating hemostasis valve into the aspiration catheter. The aspiration tubing is connected to the side port of the rotating hemostasis valve. The valve on the aspiration tubing is switched to ON to begin aspiration, and the separator is advanced and retracted during active suction. The aspiration catheter can be rotated to engage additional thrombus.
Safety Tips: (i) Never retract, advance, or torque the catheter or separator against resistance as this could lead to vessel damage and perforation. (ii) The separator should not be used as a guidewire to advance the catheter.
Step 7. To stop aspiration the aspiration tubing valve is switched to the OFF position and then the pump can be turned OFF. The separator is removed. A volume of 5– 10 ml of blood should be aspirated from the catheter and once the catheter is cleared, it can be used to hand inject contrast. If further treatment of smaller distal branches (vessel size 2–3 mm) is needed, the CAT3 device can be used by telescoping through the existing sheath or CAT8 device.
Safety Tip: During active aspiration a nurse or technician should pay close attention to the amount and speed of blood removal into container. This should be continuously verbalized to the operator. When the aspiration catheter is engaged in thrombus, blood is seen slowly dripping out into the canister. If flow stops completely despite use of the separator, the catheter should be withdrawn and flushed to remove trapped thrombus. If blood flow is more rapid and continuous, this is indicative that clot is not being engaged or removed and flow should be either interrupted or the catheter
repositioned to avoid excessive blood loss. If there is substantial aspiration of blood as the procedure warrants, consideration can be made to replete with a packed red blood cell transfusion.
AngioVac
The AngioVac® system (Angiodynamic, Latham, NY, USA) is a large‐bore suction thrombectomy device indicated for removal of fresh, soft thrombi or emboli during extracorporeal bypass. The system utilizes a 22 French coil reinforced aspiration cannula with an expandable funnel tip that can engage and aspirate large thrombi. Aspiration is achieved by attaching the cannula to a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit, where the blood is filtered and then is then returned to the patient via a large‐bore return cannula via a second central venous access (Figure 16.11).
It currently is available in straight, and 20° configurations with a balloon‐actuated expandable funnel (generation 2) (Figure 16.12a) as well as a configuration (generation 3) (Figure 16.12b) which allows up to 180° angulation of the catheter by unsheathing the distal end of the cannula. The funnel on third‐generation device is expanded by nitinol struts in the leaflets and is deployed by unsheathing the funnel.
Large thrombus in the setting of pulmonary embolism may be amenable to removal utilizing the AngioVac system [6, 7]. The AngioVac also shows promise in the treatment of clot‐in‐transit in the right atrium/ventricle
[8]. It can also be utilized effectively for debulking large
infected right heart vegetations to prevent septic pulmonary embolism [9, 10].
Patient Selection and Central Venous Access
As this device requires large‐bore sheath and cannula access into central veins, documentation of patency of two suitable accesses should be ascertained, including evaluation of both internal jugular veins and both common femoral veins. There should be no absolute

contraindication to anticoagulation. Patients with heparin allergies can be anticoagulated with argatroban or bivalirudin. Right heart vegetation procedures are often facilitated in conjunction with real‐time transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance, necessitating anesthesia services, and an operator of the echocardiography imaging equipment. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has also been used to facilitate right heart vegetation removal [11], which may obviate the need for general anesthesia. Clot‐in‐transit embolectomy procedures can be performed with intraprocedural transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) monitoring, as general anesthesia may not be desirable in patients with pulmonary embolus.

AngioVac Circuit Setup and Thrombus Aspiration
Step 1. Venous access should be obtained in two central veins (internal jugular vein or common femoral veins). Ultrasound guidance is recommended for access to avoid inadvertent arterial injury before large‐bore sheath placement and anticoagulation.
Tip: The preclose technique can be performed after obtaining access, before dilating to larger French size at the venous access sites by placing a purse‐ string suture at each access site or placing a single Perclose ProGlide (Abbott, Santa Clara, CA, USA) suture at this time if desired.
Step 2. Intravenous anticoagulant bolus can be administered at this point before placement of reinfusion cannula to prevent thrombus from forming in the cannula (a minimum target of ACT of 300 is desired while blood is in the circuit).
Step 3. Serial dilatation is then performed at each venous access site, respectively, 16 or 18 Fr reinfusion cannula is placed at one site, and a 26 Fr DrySeal sheath

(W.L. Gore, Flagstaff, AZ, USA) is placed at the site desired for aspiration.
Step 4. The circuit is opened in the sterile field, and the Y‐circuit hub is connected to the female connector, closing the circuit of the operator’s side (Figure 16.13a). A Tuohy‐Borst adaptor is inserted into the red Tuohy on the Y‐adapter; both are tightened to finger tight (Figure
16.13b). An adequate amount of sterile circuit tubing is
left on the field, and the remainder of the circuit is passed off to perfusionist for circuit assembly (perfusion circuit assembly is not included in this description).
Step 5. After the circuit is primed, clamps are placed on the ends of the tubing, marked by a blue line and red line, respectively, ensuring the circuit remains primed (Figure 16.13c). The two ends are then separated again. A wet‐to‐wet connection is made at the reinfusion cannula, ensuring there is no air in the tubing.
Tip: A stopcock and a 60 cc syringe can be used to aspirate any residual air from the return tubing.
The Y‐adaptor end is connected to the AngioVac cannula (Figure 16.13d), the clamp is removed, and the cannula is then primed with saline. The Tuohy insert is removed, and the obturator is inserted until it is entirely through the distal end of AngioVac cannula (Figure 16.13e). The clamp is removed and cannula flushed. The AngioVac cannula can then be advanced through the DrySeal sheath over a wire to its desired location, and the obturator is then removed.

Tip: If the AngioVac does not need significant
intravascular manipulation, the cannula can be directly advanced through the DrySeal sheath without the obturator, taking care not to damage the leaflets as it enters the hub. The cannula can then be unsheathed to avoid advancing it into the vessel wall.
Step 6. With the second‐generation AngioVac device, an inflator is used to distend a balloon which deploys funnel. The balloon should not be inflated more than 2 mmHg as it may rupture. With the third‐generation AngioVac device, the funnel is deployed by unsheathing the end of the cannula.

Tip: With the second‐generation device, if the balloon ruptures, the leaflets of the cannula may not open properly, limiting flows.
Step 7. All clamps are removed, and flow is initiated and optimized to approximately 3–4 l/min.
Step 8. AngioVac cannula is then advanced to engage the thrombus.
AngioVac for Pulmonary Embolus
AngioVac can engage and remove large thrombus and may be a useful tool in the treatment of large central pulmonary embolus, especially when the use of lytics may be contraindicated. Note, however, the use of AngioVac in the pulmonary arteries constitutes off label use of the device.Because of the size and rigidity of the current iteration of the cannula, manipulating through the right heart into the pulmonary arteries may prove challenging. Also, the cannula cannot be advanced past the main pulmonary arteries and may be less effective in the treatment of isolated peripheral segmental thrombus. Caution must be taken when manipulating the cannula across the tricuspid valvular apparatus during catheter placement to avoid valvular injury. When crossing the tricuspid valve, care must be taken to avoid hooking chordae tendineae of the valve. This can be achieved by using an inflated Swan–Ganz balloon catheter or a formed pigtail catheter with a tip deflecting wire to cross the valve into the right ventricle/pulmonary outflow tract. This can then be exchanged for a stiff wire, i.e. a super‐stiff Amplatz wire or a Lundquist wire, to facilitate the delivery of the AngioVac cannula to the pulmonary artery. The cannula is advanced with the obturator to the pulmonary artery, central to the clot. The obturator is removed, the funnel expanded, and flow is then initiated before the thrombus in engaged.
