1. Evaluation conducted in a pre-clinical porcine model. Coils were deployed every 3 minutes until complete occlusion was achieved. Complete occlusion was defined as TIMI Grade 0 (no antegrade flow beyond the point of occlusion) and assessed by the physician evaluator. Contralateral vessel pairs of comparable diameters were used for each assessment. For EMBOLD Soft comparisons, 3 replicates were conducted. For EMBOLD Fibered, 4 replicates were conducted. For Embold Soft comparisons, the longest coil length commercially available for each coil type was used: Concerto 4mm x 10cm/Embold Soft 4mm x 30cm and Ruby Soft 6mm x 30cm/Embold Soft 6mm x 60cm. For Embold Fibered, comparable coil lengths were evaluated to assess fiber vs. metal impact: Ruby Standard 6mm x 20cm/Embold Fibered 6mm x 20cm. med six times. Testing done at an independent facility. Bench Test study results may not necessarily be indicative of clinical performance.
2. In vitro bench model: testing results from bovine blood flow loop. Occlusion time is an average of a single 6 x 20 coil from each manufacturer performed six times. Testing done at an independent facility. Bench test or pre-clinical study results may not be necessarily indicative of clinical performance.
3. In vitro bench model: testing results from bovine blood flow loop. Occlusion time is an average of a single 30 cm coil from each manufacturer performed six times. Testing done at an independent facility. Bench Test study results may not necessarily be indicative of clinical performance.
4. In vitro bench model: testing results from bovine blood flow loop. Occlusion time is an average of a single 3 x 15 coil from each manufacturer, except for Concerto with two 3 x 8 coils, performed six times. Testing done at an independent facility. Bench Test study results may not necessarily be indicative of clinical performance.
