- The enhanced IRRAflow® catheter offers increased kink resistance, which improves the ability to place the catheter, and an altered dual-lumen design, which increases its ability to both irrigate and drain needed fluids.
- The enhanced catheter is already being used to treat neurocritical care patients in the United States.
Stockholm, October 7, 2021 - IRRAS, a commercial-stage medical technology company with a comprehensive portfolio of innovative products for neurocritical care, today announced the approval for an enhanced IRRAflow dual-lumen catheter in Europe. DEKRA, the company's notified body, recently approved upgrades to the catheter, which is placed in the intracranial space as part of the IRRAflow system to perform active fluid exchange. This enhanced catheter is already being used commercially in the United States.
IRRAflow, the company's initial commercial product, is a transformative medical device that offers intracranial fluid exchange by combining controlled irrigation and ongoing fluid drainage to better manage neurocritical care patients. The new IRRAflow 2.0 catheter now incorporates improved kink resistance, which improves catheter deliverability, and an upgraded dual-lumen design that results in optimized irrigation and drainage rates.
"We are pleased to receive CE Mark approval for our enhanced IRRAflow catheter in Europe," said, Will Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of IRRAS. "We have received positive feedback from the early clinical experience with this new catheter in the US, and we are excited to offer our growing list of European customers the latest IRRAflow innovations."
