Abstract

Systems for use in blood clot removal can comprise a first tube, a second tube slidable within the first tube, and a self-expanding receiver having a membrane and positioned at least partially within the second tube. When the second tube and a proximal portion of the receiver are positioned within a distal end portion of the first tube and the second tube is moved proximally relative to the receiver until a distal end of the second tube is positioned proximally of a proximal end of the receiver, the proximal portion of the receiver can radially expand and make contact with the distal end portion of the first tube and a distal portion of the receiver can radially expand such that it has an inner diameter that is at least 10% larger than an inner diameter of the first tube.
