Armadillo receives CE mark
Patented SelectFlex™ Technology allows operators to achieve the ideal balance of trackability and support on demand to navigate complex neurovasculature.
System enables biaxial approach, regardless of access site, to eliminate complexity and cost of conventional configurations.
Our partner Q’Apel Medical, a privately-owned medical device company focused on revolutionising neurovascular interventions, has received CE mark certification for its Armadillo SelectFlex™ Neurovascular Access System. The first-of-its-kind 7F system features the patented SelectFlex™ Technology and is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the neurovasculature.
The Armadillo Neurovascular Access System with SelectFlex™ Technology delivers the versatility required for physicians to confidently tackle a wide range of neurovascular interventions. Regardless of access site, the low-profile 7F catheter enables a biaxial approach to accelerate delicate interventions and eliminate the complexity and cost of conventional tri-axial configurations.

“Neurovascular access can be extremely challenging. The tortuous anatomy requires flexibility to navigate the tight twists and turns, however, flexible access catheters tend to lack the support and stability required for device delivery once positioned,”
commented Pascal Jabbour, MD, FAANS, FACS, FAHA, The Angela and Richard T. Clark Distinguished Professor of Neurological Surgery and Radiology, Division Chief of Neurovascular Surgery & Endovascular Neurosurgery at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, PA.
“Armadillo provides a one-and-done solution that simplifies access procedures. It is designed to place full control in the hands of the operator as it allows users to transform the catheter from highly trackable to highly supportive as needed throughout the procedure with the simple injection or withdrawal of just 0.2cc of saline.”
“The Armadillo Neurovascular Access System with SelectFlex™ Technology addresses the shortcomings of currently available neurovascular access catheters. We believe it provides a novel option that allows hospitals to standardize device usage, decrease inventory constraints and reduce cost per procedure,”
stated Jodie Fam, CEO of Q’Apel Medical.
