About us
Crocevia Medical is a neurovascular medical device company, founded in collaboration with Sheba Medical Center .Our goal is to develop next-generation navigation tools that empower interventionalists with greater precision and control.
The problem
Current guidewires used in brain interventions lack steerability and integrated rotation capabilities. As a result, they often suffer from torque limitations and demand a high level of operator skill to navigate safely through complex and tortuous vessels. Physicians frequently need to remove and reshape the wire or use additional tools to complete the procedure, increasing complexity, procedural time, and overall cost. These added manipulations may also raise the risk of vessel injury and compromise patient outcomes.
Technology
Crocevia’s 0.014” guidewire features an innovative distal-end steering mechanism that allows both rotation and tip deflection via a simple, low-profile handle. This design gives physicians real-time control over the wire’s shape and direction, significantly improving maneuverability in challenging anatomy and reducing the need for ancillary tools or repeated attempts.
Market
Our initial focus is on interventional neurology, a global market valued at approximately $705 million annually. Beyond neurovascular applications, the Crocevia guidewire has potential for use in select percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and peripheral vascular procedures.
