Ask4PAE is an educational patient program to raise awareness about symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and current treatment options, mainly prostatic artery embolization (PAE). We aim to bring valuable information to men and their families who suffer from this disease.
The Ask4PAE campaign is proudly sponsored by Merit Medical Systems, Inc., manufacturer of Embosphere® Microspheres, which are the first, and only, embolic agent to receive clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration for prostate artery embolization. Embosphere® Microspheres are the most widely used spherical embolic agent, having been used for more than 20 years in a variety of medical procedures such as embolization of hypervascular tumors, including uterine fibroids, and arteriovenous malformations.
