Pete Stibbs: CleanerVac Real-World Study Presented at VIVA and The VEINS 2026
Pete Stibbs, Senior Vice President, Global Medical Affairs and Medical Director at Argon Medical Devices, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Journal of Vascular Surgery, adding:
“It is a pleasure to be at VIVA and The VEINS 2026 the Bellagio in Las Vegas and to have the opportunity to present our recently published 200-patient CleanerVac study in the Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders.
This multicenter study provides important real-world evidence on the use of the CleanerVac thrombectomy system across a broad and clinically representative patient population, adding to the growing body of evidence supporting mechanical thrombectomy in the management of venous thromboembolic disease.
A special thank you to Dr. Charbel Ishak and Dr. Paul Haser for sharing their clinical perspectives, experience, and individual case histories using the CleanerVac system.
The opportunity to combine published evidence with the practical experience of physicians treating these patients every day makes these discussions particularly valuable.
It is always rewarding to connect with colleagues and peers, exchange perspectives, and contribute to the evolving conversation around evidence-based venous and vascular care.”
Title: ARC-VAC Study (Analysis of Real-world multicenter experience with large bore Cleaner-VAC thrombectomy system), an analysis of 200 patients
