Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention relate generally to systems and methods for providing embolic protection to a medical procedure by filtration of debris generated by the medical procedure. The system and methods include an embolic protection device having an ultrasound transducer for assisting in intravascular navigation of the device.

Claim (Index 17):
A system for providing embolic protection, the system comprising:\n an embolic protection device comprising:\n a guidewire having a proximal end, and a distal end; \n a first sheath having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen, the lumen configured to receive the guidewire;\n a first distal protection filter attached to a distal portion of the first sheath; \n a second sheath having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen, the second sheath disposed over the first sheath, wherein the distal end of the second sheath is located proximally the first distal protection filter; \n a second distal protection filter attached to a distal portion of the second sheath; \n an outer sheath disposed over both the first sheath and the second sheath; and \n an intravascular ultrasound transducer disposed on an atraumatic tip, the atraumatic tip extending from the distal end of the first sheath. \n a user interface configured to receive input from an operator regarding a surgical procedure including an insertion site and a destination site; a display; a processor programmed to:\n receive input from the user interface regarding the surgical procedure; \n determine anatomical landmarks between the insertion site and the destination site; \n receive an intravascular ultrasound signal from the intravascular ultrasound transducer; \n process the intravascular ultrasound signal into an image; and send the image to the display.
