Embolic protection during carotid artery stenting reduces the rate of thromboembolic events. The Wirion Embolic Protection System is used to deploy an independent distal filter using any 0.014″ guidewire. WISE study (Wirion Study Europe) evaluated the safety and performance of Wirion Embolic Protection System in patients undergoing carotid artery stenting.
