System, devices and methods for removing obstructions in body lumens

Abstract

A method includes receiving at an aspiration module of a pump assembly an input associated with a catheter parameter of a catheter coupled to the pump assembly. An aspiration profile associated with the catheter parameter is selected via the aspiration module from a list of preset aspiration profiles associated with different catheters and include upper and lower pressure limits, an aspiration speed, and an infusion speed. A first signal is sent to actuate the pump based on the aspiration profile to operate the pump in a first mode. A pressure signal is received at the aspiration module and a second signal is sent to actuate the pump based on the aspiration profile to operate the pump in a second mode, in which the pump is cycled between the aspiration speed and the infusion speed such that the catheter pressure cycles between the upper pressure limit and the lower pressure limit.
