Ultrasound to dissolve blood clots
- Está diseñado para pacientes con una carga de coágulos mayor o igual al 50% en una o ambas arterias pulmonares principales o lobulares
- Is designed for patients with a load of clots greater than or equal to 50% in one or both major or lobular pulmonary arteries

The EkoSonic IDDC and the removable coaxial ultrasound transducer core
This is possible through a device created by the company EKOS, called EkoSonic Endovascular System (EKOS, 2014; Medimaging, 2014), is a fibrinolysis device, is designed to accelerate thrombolytic agents via ultrasound in the thrombus, provides high levels of lysis to minimize the risk of intracranial hemorrhage , is designed for patients with a load of clots greater than or equal to 50% in one or both major or lobular pulmonary arteries, is also used when there is right cardiac dysfunction based on mean pulmonary arterial pressure greater than or equal to 25 mmHg or greater to the echocardiographic evaluation. The acoustic energy is responsible for conditioning the fibrin clot by thinning the fibrin and increasing the porosity, thereby creating a pressure gradient that transports the thrombotic agent to the depth of the thrombus. This technique is not destructive, which means that as a result there is no fracture or rupture of the thrombus or damage to the wall and no hemolysis.
