ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath

Enough studies have shown the danger caused by high intra-renal pressure during the lithotripsy. (30 mmHg is considered as the safety threshold of intrarenal pressure. Oyelo-sinus,-tubular and venous backflow occurs when the Intrarenal pressure is above that. )

What if you could actively and easily control the IRP without compromising the visual field, evacuate stone fragments simply with suction, and shorten the operation time?

A 45° oblique branch to the main sheath that can be connected to a suction apparatus

A pressure vent on the oblique to allow adjustment of suction pressure

Mechanism

The inflow of irrigation is through the endoscope.

The outflow of irrigation is between the scope and the sheath.

A vortex is created at the distal end of the sheath.

The irrigation fluid, the stone fragments, dust, blood, etc., in the vortex can be aspirated out.

The pressure vent on the oblique side branch of the sheath can adjust the aspiration pressure.

Applications

ClearPetra Ureteral Access Sheath for RIRS

“Suction shapes the future of flexible ureteroscopy” – by various Urologists

Benefits

Maintaining Low Intra-luminal Pressure and Temperature

A vortex is created by continuous irrigation and aspiration. The irrigated fluid can be effectively evacuated, thus always maintaining low intra-renal pressure and temperature, ensuring fewer complications and thermal damage.

High Stone Clearance Rate

The deflectable tip can be safely placed in the pyelo-calyceal system for better aspiration of the stone fragments even in the lower pole.

High Surgical Efficacy

Stone dust can be aspirated out during laser lithotripsy.

Reduced retropulsion

Stone fragments will aggregate at the distal end of the ClearPetra sheath instead of scattering.

Improving visual field

Under the continuous irrigation and suction, bleeding and dust storm from stone pulverization no longer obscure the visual field.

Treating Larger Stones

With high efficacy and better vision, urologists can treat larger stones.

Less Accessory Device Required

Stone baskets, forceps, and anti-retropulsion devices are no longer necessary as the stone fragments are aspirated out spontaneously.

ClearPetra Nephrostomy Sheath

“There is some evidence of using suction during PNL to reduce intra-renal pressure and increase stone free rate.”
-EAU Guidelines 2022

Benefits

Total solution for PCNL and allows further miniaturization

Standard PCNL: > 24Fr

Mini PCNL (MIP): 16 – 22Fr

Supermini PCNL (SMP): 12 – 14Fr

Micromini (ClearPetra Micro): < 10Fr

(图1)

Conclusion

The ClearPetra Mini PCNL and MicroMini PCNL are as efficient as the Standard PCNL for treating bigger stones and maintaining intra-renal pressure, meanwhile they are safer with less bleeding and smaller wound area reduced by 62.3% with 16Fr Mini PCNL and 85.3% with 10Fr MicroMini PCNL.
