      ⚠️ Indications, Safety, and Warnings
      rendering of RED Reperfusion Catheters

      Penumbra’s RED™ Reperfusion Catheters (RED 43, RED 62 , RED 68, RED 72 SILVER LABEL, RED 72 SILVER LABEL with SENDit™ Technology, and RED 78) are designed to remove thrombus and restore blood flow in the neurovasculature using aspiration.

      Every case is different, and the RED family of catheters provides a full range of products designed to optimise lumen size and trackability for the situation. All six products feature new REDglide™ technology which is designed to improve catheter interaction with vessels and to enhance delivery in tortuosity.

      RED 43 advanced trackability provides smooth delivery of our large bore catheters as well as providing strong distal aspiration.

      • .043″ (1.09 mm) Lumen: Delivers powerful distal aspiration
      • .060″ (1.52 mm) Outer Diameter: Low profile and atraumatic design for distal deliverability
      • REDglide Technology: Designed to enhance delivery in tortuosity
      • 153 cm Length: To reach target vessels
      • Precision Tip: Articulating marker band with short polymer tip for optimal visualisation and placement

      RED 62 is Penumbra’s most versatile reperfusion catheter providing advanced trackability even in the most challenging anatomy.

      • .062″ (1.57 mm) Lumen: Delivers powerful distal aspiration
      • .076″ (1.93 mm) Outer Diameter: Low profile for easy access
      • Atraumatic Design: Engineered to effortlessly navigate tortuous anatomy
      • 138 cm Length: To reach target vessels
      • 11 Material Transitions: Optimised for performance in complex distal anatomy

      RED 68 is our medium-bore reperfusion catheter which is designed to combine the best of both worlds, trackability and efficient clot engagement.

      • .068″ (1.73 mm) Lumen: Delivers powerful aspiration
      • .084″ (2.13 mm) Outer Diameter: Atraumatic tip designed for improved navigation
      • REDglide Technology: Enhanced distal hydrophilic coating for smooth trackability
      • 132 cm Length: To reach target vessels
      • 16 Material Transitions: Optimised for performance in challenging anatomy

      RED 72 SILVER LABEL is our latest large-bore Reperfusion Catheter, which provides the highest TRF on the marketa and is optimised for navigating challenging anatomy in LVO.

      • SILVER LABEL Technology: Blended transition zones designed for enhanced performance in challenging anatomy
      • .072″ (1.83 mm) Lumen: Delivers highest TRFa
      • .085″ (2.16 mm) Outer Diameter: Articulating marker band design to improve tip softness
      • REDglide Technology: Enhanced distal hydrophilic coating for smooth trackability
      • 132 cm Length: To reach target vessels

      a. As compared to AXS Vecta™ 71 and Stryker™ (Medela), LBC and Vacuson 60, React™ 71 and Riptide™, AXS Vecta 74 and Stryker (Medela), and Zoom™ 71 and Zoom pump. Thrombus Removal Force (TRF) = (Catheter Tip Area) × (Vacuum). Sources: company website, marketing literature, IFU, and data on file.

      RED 72 SILVER LABEL is our latest large-bore Reperfusion Catheter, which provides the highest TRF on the marketa and is now available with SENDit Technology. SENDit Technology is designed to simplify preparation and ease delivery of RED 72 SILVER LABEL.

      • Blended transition zones designed for optimised compatibility with SENDit Technology
      • Preloaded in RED 72 SILVER LABEL for simplified setup
      • 1 Flush Point for quick preparation
      • Occupies 99% of RED 72 SILVER LABEL lumenb
      • Tapered 1.5 cm distal tip designed for close clot proximity
      • .014″ wire compatible
      • Intended for use with BENCHMARK™ BMX™96 Access System
