Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments of the present disclosure include, for example, an embolic protection system (EPS) including an inner-body having a body diameter and a distal section, and an expandable filter arranged on or adjacent at least the distal section of the inner-body. The filter is configured to include a plurality of pores, sized to allow the flow of the blood with limited interruption and capture of emboli greater than the pore size. Such embodiments may also include an expandable introducer sheath/sleeve having a sheath diameter configured to accommodate the inner-body and filter, including the distal portion, when unexpanded, as well as a tear-away (TA) sleeve having a sleeve diameter configured to accommodate the introducer sheath containing the inner-body and filter when unexpanded.
