Passive Venting Solutions – Aire PV™ Catheter

The truFreeze^® System may be used for passive venting procedures for both benign and malignant pulmonary applications, including:

• Benign stricture
• Tumor burden
• Malignancies
• Post-intubation trauma
• Hemoptysis
• Stent management
• Stricture management
• Lung transplant anastomosis stricture
• Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction (HPV)
• Wegener' granulomatosis

The Aire PV™ Catheter Technology

The Aire PV™ catheter is used in passive venting cases to ablate benign and malignant tissue. Passive venting involves the natural diffusion of gas from the ablation area. It may be used with a vent tube when delivering spray cryotherapy proximal to a resistor where the lumen is open.

Benefits of the Aire PV™ Catheter

• Preservation of central airways - truFreeze^® spray cryotherapy helps to preserve airways during pulmonary procedures.
• Post-procedural healing - Spray cryotherapy promotes a rejuvenative healing response due to low scarring compared to traditional heat-based ablation therapies
