The InVera Infusion Device is an innovative, minimally invasive, infusion catheter designed specifically for controlled delivery to superficial veins of the lower limb peripheral vascular system.


The InVera Infusion device is designed for precise and efficient delivery of physician-specified agents in superficial leg veins via a single-use, disposable catheter-based solution. The innovative design includes a helical coil with a micro-textured lumen engaging outer surface that is capable of inducing venospasm and disrupting the vessel wall to expose the media layer. This creates the optimal environment for the infused agent to act on the target vessel wall.

With a proven safety profile, the InVera Infusion device is designed to enable precise and effective delivery of infused agents and enhance procedural efficiency while prioritising patient comfort.

Slide Key Features of the InVera Infusion Device The InVera Infusion Device is a non-implanted, single-use, disposable catheter system designed for minimally invasive vascular treatments. It is introduced into the superficial venous circulatory system of the lower limb using a 5Fr Introducer sheath, ensuring smooth and controlled access to the treatment site. Nitinol Helical Coil Unique design with micro-textured lumen engaging outer surface and smooth inner surface. Precision laser cut textured surface disrupts the vein wall at a cellular, without catching or snagging in vein wall valves, for a smooth and intuitive withdrawal process. Delivery Catheter Holds the constrained coil during navigation and delivers physician-specified agents, such as sclerosants, to the target area. The catheter’s distal outer section is composed of spirally cut stainless-steel, combining strength and flexibility. Ergonomic Pin and Pull Handle Designed for easy deployment and recapture of the helical coil. An integrated infusion port with a standard luer connector allows for seamless agent delivery via an injection extension tube.

Slide Safety and Performance Benefits of the Device Precise Delivery Engineered for targeted infusion of physician-specified agents to the vein lumen and sub-endothelial layers. Intutitive Method The device's design prioritises ease of use, allowing for quick integration into standard clinical practice. The procedure is straightforward and based on existing minimally invasive ultrasound-guided endovascular techniques. Procedural Efficiency The single-use, disposable design contributes to an efficient procedure flow across a range of clinical environments. No requirement for additional consoles or equipment. Minimally Invasive Introduced via a standard 5Fr introducer sheath. The Non-thermal, Non-Tumescent technique requires only a single injection of local anaesthetic at the introducer site, promoting a faster return to daily activities for patients.

Slide Chronic Venous Disease Chronic Venous Disease (CVD) occurs when blood is not circulating effectively around the body. It is typically caused by the failure of one-way valves which is known as superficial venous reflux, responsible for preventing blood flowing backwards in veins and results in blood pooling in the legs leading to a range of symptoms that progressively worsen over time. Over 80% of patients with CVD have abnormal superficial venous reflux, 5% of individuals with CVD experience more advanced symptoms every year.

Symptoms begin with varicose veins which are dilated, tortuous veins. This can progress to pain, heaviness, leg swelling, eczema and subsequent skin changes leading to the breakdown of the skin, and malodorous leaking venous ulcerations, in addition to cosmetic dissatisfaction.

Slide A Huge Underestimated Healthcare Need Venous disease affects one in four people and ranks as the 4th most common chronic disease in the world. This progressive venous disease culminates in debilitating venous leg ulcers that destroy quality of life for sufferers. It places a huge burden on health care systems, representing up to 3% of total healthcare budgets of western countries.

Only 1.3% of the 120 million people in the US & Europe who suffer from venous disease currently receive treatment each year.

Our device offers an unrivalled lower risk treatment which will allow more patients who suffer from venous disease to access effective treatment*.
