Is the TriGUARD 3™ Cerebral Embolic Protection Device safe?

Yes. A pilot study was conducted using the TriGUARD 3™ device for cerebral protection during TAVR. It was shown to be feasible and safe. During the study, the device was successfully delivered, deployed, and retrieved without interference with the TAVR procedure in 100% of cases, and achieved complete 3-vessel cerebral embolic protection throughout the procedure in 90% of cases without any clinical evidence of neurological impairment.[1]
