Abstract
Apparatus and methods are provided for use in deploying and retrieving a vascular device suited for filtering emboli from a vessel and performing thrombectomy and embolectomy. The vascular device comprises a support hoop having an articulation region connected near a distal end of a guide wire, and a blood permeable sac affixed to the support hoop so that the support hoop forms a mouth of the blood permeable sac. A specialized delivery system allows precise control over deployment and retrieval of the vascular device, and the introduction or withdrawal of fluids from an operative site.
