Functional description

The Indigo System Lightning Kits consist of Indigo Aspiration Catheters packaged together with Lightning Aspiration Tubing. Aspiration Catheters are vascular catheters that serve a conduit to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. Lightning Aspiration Tubing utilizes software which monitors two pressure sensors along the length of the tubing to determine whether or not the tubing vale is open or shut.
