FORWARD: Functional Outcomes in Real-World Treatment and Revascularization of Non-dominant and Distal M2 Occlusions
This study tests how the Penumbra System works in real-world patients with non-dominant or distal M2 occlusions who have an acute ischemic stroke, comparing endovascular thrombectomy to medical management alone.
-
Real-world performance and safety of the Penumbra System in acute ischemic stroke
This project will test how the Penumbra mechanical thrombectomy system performs and how safe it is in adults aged 18–75 who have acute ischemic stroke and are eligible for clot removal.
-
Removing leg artery clots with the Indigo Aspiration System for acute lower‑limb ischemia
This will test whether the Indigo Aspiration System can safely remove clots and restore blood flow in adults with recent (≤14 days) lower‑limb acute ischemia.
-
Evaluating the long-term safety and outcomes of the Indigo Aspiration System for pulmonary embolism treatment
This study is testing how safe and effective the Indigo Aspiration System is for treating pulmonary embolism in patients over the long term.
