A removable vascular filter for blocking micro-emboli, and macro-emboli while allowing the continued perfusion of blood comprising a filter membrane (20), wherein the free end of the membrane sits tightly against the guide wire (10) when the filter membrane is in a collapsed state, and wherein the filter has a means for deploying the filter membrane in the interior of a lumen which is comprised of cables or spines (30) operable with a movable core (40), or fibers inside the guide wire which transitions the filter membrane from the collapsed state to the deployed state. The filter membrane is comprised of a fine mesh material which has a pore size capable of blocking emboli while allowing continued blood flow.

La présente invention a trait à un filtre vasculaire amovible destiné à bloquer la microembolie et la macroembolie tout en permettant la perfusion sanguine. Ce filtre comprend une membrane filtre (20), l'extrémité libre de la membrane s'appuyant fermement contre le fil directeur (10) lorsque la membrane filtre est affaissée. Le filtre est pourvu d'un dispositif lui permettant de déployer la membrane filtre à l'intérieur d'une lumière, comprenant des fils ou des tubes (30) fonctionnant avec une partie centrale mobile (40), ou renfermant à l'intérieur du fil directeur des fibres qui amènent la membrane filtre de l'état d'affaissement à celui de déploiement. La membrane filtre comprend un matériau à mailles fines, comparables à des pores, capable de bloquer l'embolie tout en permettant au sang de s'écouler normalement.
