Abstract
A system for removing a blood clot from a blood vessel or vein is provided. The system includes a plurality of support members that can be expanded to define a basket. The support members include a mesh portion at their distal ends. The system includes a first wire attached to the proximal end of the basket defined by the support members and a second wire attached to a distal end of the basket. The second wire extends through the middle of the basket when the basket is in the expanded condition. The width of the basket can be adjusted by adjusting the second wire relative to the first wire, and the location of the basket can be adjusted by adjusting the first wire. The basket is delivered distally beyond the blood clot, where it is expanded outward. The blood clot is captured by translating the basket proximally.
