DRIVEWIRE 24 redefines interventional access by providing an active deflectable tip that controls and steers a range of catheters directly to the target vessels. Whereas conventional access devices are reactive and rely on external forces to reach their target, DRIVEWIRE's active technology selects turns on-demand and handles the complexity of navigating the vascular highway with ease.

“DRIVEWIRE addresses a major unmet need in the endovascular space,” exclaims Dr. Shahram Majidi of Mount Sinai Health System in New York City, NY. “It transforms access across a range of procedures, from aneurysms to strokes and more. We’re always looking for devices to make procedures faster, safer, less expensive. My first experience with DRIVEWIRE suggests it could do all of these.”
In the 2 cases completed by Dr. Majidi, DRIVEWIRE 24 navigated the aspiration catheter directly to the M2 arterial occlusion for first-pass excellent reperfusion. In the second case, DRIVEWIRE navigated complex turns to place 2 flow diverters in a large, multilobed aneurysm.
DRIVEWIRE provides high-performance intravascular steering. Physicians control the direction and shape of the guidewire tip in real time, eliminating the need to remove the wire to reshape it. The device also features variable support to articulate a wide range of micro and intermediate catheters without advanced forerun or additional support devices. This results in precise navigation via the most direct route through the neuro and peripheral vasculature.
“With DRIVEWIRE, our design goal was to bring new levels of access and control to the interventional suite while improving best-in-class guidewires,” comments Giora Kornblau, Chief Technology Officer at Rapid Medical. “When physicians are looking for technologies that increase the clinical possibilities and safety for the patient, we want Rapid to be the first place they look.”
