  • Title: Use of filterwire EX for distal embolic protection during complex percutaneous coronary interventions: four case studies.
    Author: Kornowski R, Assali A.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2003 Mar; 58(3):364-9. PubMed ID: 12594704.
    Abstract:
    We describe four successful cases demonstrating the use of a novel filter-guidewire (FilterWire EX) during complex percutaneous coronary interventions in saphenous vein grafts (n = 3) and native coronary artery (n = 1) for prevention of distal embolization and consequently myonecrosis.
