Thrombus aspiration rate of each aspiration catheter. The rate was equal to the volume of post-aspirated thrombus divided by that of pre-aspirated thrombus (Student's t-test). We compared the thrombus aspiration rates of the two catheters in each model.
| Venous Model | Catheter (F) | Thrombus Aspiration Rate (%) | P Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pulmonary Artery | 8 | 0.998 ± 0.024 | 0.756 |
| 12 | 0.993 ± 0.043 | ||
| Inferior Vena Cava | 8 | 0.996 ± 0.022 | 0.330 |
| 14 | 0.896 ± 0.315 | ||
| Iliofemoral Vein | 8 | 0.995 ± 0.033 | 0.619 |
