CloverSnare 4-Loop Vascular Retrieval Snare. Product is packaged in a Tyvek-film sterilizable outer package and is supplied one pouch in a box. The CloverSnare 4-Loop Vascular Retriever is intended for use in the cardiovascular system to manipulate and retrieve foreign objects, including but not limited to, wire guides, coils, balloons, catheters, and filters.
This remedial action is the result of six product complaints associated with separation of the snare from the distal tip of the wire.
