Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Pipeline™ Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology™ utilizes a phosphorylcholine (PC) surface treatment to the implant combined with the PFED delivery system. The Shield Technology™ surface treatment applied to the implant is an inert polymer material created to mimic the outer membrane of a human red blood cell. The Pipeline™ Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology™ is intended for endovascular embolization of cerebral aneurysms and is designed to be placed across the opening (or 'neck') of a brain aneurysm and redirect blood flow away from the aneurysm, causing the blood within the aneurysm to clot.
