ARMOUR: Proximal Protection With The Mo.Ma Device During Carotid Stenting
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Mo.Ma cerebral protection device for Carotid Artery Disease. Completed, enrolled 262 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The objective of the ARMOUR study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Mo.Ma proximal flow blockage cerebral protection device for patients at high surgical risk for carotid endarterectomy who undergo carotid artery stenting
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Proximal embolic protection based on the principle endovascular clamping consisting of a catheter with two compliant balloons. Mo.Ma is designed to achieve cerebral protection by proximal blood flow blockage at the carotid bifurcation: antegrade and retrograde flow blockage are achieved by proximal balloon occlusion of the CCA and distal balloon occlusion of the ECA. Cerebral protection is established prior to the initial wire passage through the stenosis and maintained during the entire procedure. Mo.Ma provides withdrawal of embolic particles by allowing manual syringe aspiration of any micro-emboli at the end of the procedure before restoring blood flow through the stented vessel.
