TemREN represents a front-cutting atherectomy device engineered to mechanically debulk and clear plaque within peripheral arteries—especially in challenging PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease) lesions. By combining low-profile design, direct lesion access, and reduced vessel trauma, TemREN is poised to enhance both efficacy and procedural confidence in the endovascular management of systemic atherosclerosis.
Front Cutter
•Direct Lesion Debulking: The front-cutting mechanism addresses atherosclerotic tissue at the lesion core, reducing the need for nosecone passage prior to cutting.
•Minimized Vessel Trauma: By precise plaque shaving rather than forceful pushing, the cutter design aims to lower shear stress or vessel dissection risk.
Low-Profile, Over-the-Wire Catheter
•Enhanced Deliverability: A streamlined catheter shaft navigates through tortuous pathways without unnecessary friction, improving trackability and pushability.
•Wire Guidance: The over-the-wire approach allows stable lesion crossing, facilitating accurate lesion engagement and device alignment.
Reduced Need for Stents
•Mechanical Atheromatous Removal: Atherectomy can diminish plaque burden while preserving or maximizing native vessel patency, potentially limiting adjunctive stenting.
•Optimized Physiologic Remodeling: By clearing plaque from the lumen, flow dynamics are restored with lower reliance on metallic implants.
Versatile Indications in PAD
•Femoral, Popliteal, and Infrapopliteal Vessels: Suitable for a range of peripheral segments typically subjected to high shear stress from stenting or angioplasty alone.
•Adjunct to Balloon Angioplasty: Enhances the efficacy of subsequent balloon dilation or drug delivery.
