The BraidE Embolization Assist Device is indicated for use in the peripheral vasculature as a temporary endovascular device used to assist in the coil embolization of wide-necked peripheral aneurysms with a neck width ≤ 10 mm. A wide-necked peripheral aneurysm defines the neck width as > 4 mm or a dome-to-neck ratio < 2.

The BraidE Embolization Assist Device is a sterile single use endovascular device intended to provide temporary assistance for the coil embolization of wide-necked peripheral aneurysms. The BraidE is comprised of a nitinol braided mesh, stainless steel shaft, nitinol core wire and a handle. The braided mesh at the distal portion of the device is shown in Figure 2. The shaft connects the mesh and the handle by the core wire that runs inside the shaft from the distal end of the mesh to the slider activation element in the handle. The mesh is expanded when the physician pulls the slider. Because the wires of the mesh are completely radiopaque, the physician sees the mesh under fluoroscopy and controls it until it conforms to the aneurysm neck morphology and vessel requirement.
