Pushable coils

Manufactured by Cook Medical
Sourced in United States

Pushable coils are a type of laboratory equipment used for various applications. They are designed to be inserted and maneuvered through small spaces or passages. The core function of pushable coils is to provide a flexible, navigable solution for specific laboratory procedures or experiments. This product offers a practical tool for controlled, precise positioning and manipulation within a controlled environment.

Superselective Embolization for Delayed Post-Pancreatectomy Hemorrhage

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This approach, was frequently employed at the hospital between 2005 and 2008, involved the application of embolization to the culprit lesion (Fig. 1). Hepatic artery patency was preserved intentionally. A microcatheter was typically navigated into the lesion, which was either a pseudoaneurysm or active bleeding site, and pushable coils (Cook, Bloomington, IN, USA) or a 40%–50% N-butylcyanoacrylate (NBCA)–lipiodol mixture were used.

Example of superselective embolization conducted on a 69-year-old man with delayed PPH 17 days after the classic Whipple procedure for cancer of the ampulla of Vater. a Celiac angiogram showing active bleeding (black arrow) at the common hepatic artery. b Superselective embolization with 40% N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA)–lipiodol mixture through a 1.7-Fr microcatheter (Excelsior SL-10; Boston Scientific, Fremont, CA, USA) was performed on the bleeding site. Postembolization angiogram showed preservation of the proper hepatic artery. Technical success was achieved initially

Hepatic Artery Embolization for Postoperative Hemorrhage

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This approach has been employed at the hospital since 2003. The destructive approach involved hepatic artery sacrifice (Fig. 2). The catheter was navigated to the distal part of the culprit lesion, and Pushable coils were deployed from the distal to the proximal part of the lesion (sandwich technique). When navigation to the distal portion was difficult, a 40%–50% NBCA–lipiodol mixture was used to occlude the proper hepatic artery or common hepatic artery from the proximal portion.

Example of destructive approach performed on a 65-year-old man with delayed PPH 17 days after the Whipple procedure for solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas. a Celiac angiogram showed a segmental, irregular, and narrow proper hepatic artery at the GDA stump with associated beaded protrusions (black arrow). b Pushable coils (Cook, Bloomington, IN, USA) were deployed from the proper hepatic artery to the common hepatic artery by using the sandwich technique. c Postembolization angiography showed complete occlusion of the proper hepatic artery and collateral vessels to liver parenchyma from the left gastric artery

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
