Flow Arrest Safety and Technical Success With Balloon Guide Catheters

Flow Arrest Safety and Technical Success With Balloon Guide Catheters

The objective of this post-market registry is to assess technical efficacy and safety associated with the use of the BOSS Balloon Guide Catheter during neuro-vascular procedures while providing temporary arrest of blood flow.

This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized observational registry evaluating use of BOSS balloon guide catheters in patients diagnosed with an acute ischemic stroke due to large intracranial vessel occlusion.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Acute ischemic stroke vessel occlusion (ICA, M1 or M2) of the anterior circulation with associated symptoms
• Adult patient willing to provide Informed Consent
• Pre-treatment National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) ≥ 6

Exclusion Criteria:

• Posterior circulation stroke
• Tandem occlusions
• Cervical carotid stenosis
• Participating in another clinical trial
