In the new study, Dr. Bashir and colleagues observed reductions in occlusions in segmental and proximal branches of the pulmonary artery 48 hours following treatment with the BASHIR catheter.

A computed tomographic scan of the thorax showed massive dilatation of proximal and segmental pulmonary arteries. Cardiac catheterization showed a pulmonary-artery pressure of 128/81 mm Hg (mean ...

with occlusion of the interlobar pulmonary artery that extended into the middle and lower lobes, including segmental arteries. There was also a new focal dilatation (1.1 cm in diameter ...

Already shown to be effective for reducing blockages in lung arteries, new research shows that this catheter also reduces blockages in the smaller segmental pulmonary artery branches. These ...
