Abstract

A device can detect and retrieve a blood clot by advancing a catheter with a clot sensing element through a patient's vascular system. The catheter can map, using an electromagnetic sensor disposed at a distal end of the clot sensing element, the patient's vascular system. A force sensor can generate a position signal indicating the clot sensing element contacted the clot in the patient's vascular system. Once located, a blood clot retrieval device can be deployed through the catheter and a lumen in the clot sensing element to remove the clot from the patient's vascular system.
