A system may comprise a clot engagement element having a collapsed delivery configuration and an expanded configuration for engaging with a clot and for dislodging the clot from a first vessel segment. An elongate member may be configured to apply a pull force to the clot engaging element to dislodge the clot from the first vessel segment. A clot removal catheter may include a lumen at its distal end sized to receive the clot and configured to maintain a stable position in a second blood vessel segment proximal of and larger in diameter than the first blood vessel segment. A distal end of the elongate member may be configured to protect a third blood vessel segment between the first and second blood vessel segments from tractive forces transmitted by the elongate member during clot dislodgement from the first vessel segment.

1. A clot removal device comprising: a clot engaging element, a shaft, and a tractive tubular member, the clot engaging element having a collapsed delivery configuration and an expanded configuration;the shaft comprising a proximal section and a distal section, a distal end of the distal section of the shaft being connected to the clot engaging element;the tractive tubular member encircling the shaft over at least a portion of the length of the shaft distal section, the tractive tubular member being slidable and rotatable relative to the distal section of the shaft and the clot engaging element;wherein a proximal end of the clot engaging element is positioned distally of the distal end of the tractive tubular member during both the collapsed delivery configuration and the expanded configuration;wherein the shaft comprises a distal stop and a proximal stop, said tractive tubular member being located between the distal stop and the proximal stop; andwherein an interface between the shaft and the tractive tubular member comprises an outer surface of the shaft and a surface of a lumen of the tractive tubular member, and wherein the coefficient of friction of the surface of the lumen is less than the coefficient of friction of an outer surface of the tractive tubular member. 2. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the proximal stop and distal stop are spaced from one another such that the tractive tubular member may slide between the proximal stop and a distal stop. 3. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the shaft comprises at least one of Nitinol and stainless steel. 4. The clot removal device of claim 1, further comprising: a spring extending proximally of the clot engaging element and encircling at least a portion of the shaft. 5. The clot removal device of claim 1, further comprising: a longitudinally extending tether, a distal end of the tether coupled to the shaft and a proximal end of the tether coupled to the tractive tubular member. 6. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least one articulated region. 7. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least one region having slits extending through the tractive tubular member. 8. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion has a higher coefficient of friction than the second portion, and wherein the first portion includes a plurality of protrusions extending outwardly of the outer surface of the tractive tubular member. 9. The clot removal device of claim 1, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least a first portion having a first diameter and a second portion having a second diameter different than the first diameter. 10. A clot removal device comprising: a clot engaging element, a shaft, and a tractive tubular member, the clot engaging element having a collapsed delivery configuration and an expanded configuration;the shaft comprising a proximal section and a distal section, a distal end of the distal section of the shaft being connected to the clot engaging element;the tractive tubular member encircling the shaft over at least a portion of the length of the shaft distal section, the distal section of the shaft being slidable and rotatable relative to the tractive tubular member;wherein a proximal end of the clot engaging element is positioned distally of the distal end of the tractive tubular member during both the collapsed delivery configuration and the expanded configuration;wherein the tractive tubular member is discrete and uncoupled from the clot engaging element; andwherein the shaft comprises a distal stop and a proximal stop, said distal and proximal stops being spaced from one another. 11. The clot removal device of claim 10, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least one articulation region. 12. The clot removal device of claim 10, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least one region having slits extending through the tractive tubular member. 13. The clot removal device of claim 10, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion has a higher coefficient of friction than the second portion. 14. The clot removal device of claim 13, wherein the first portion includes a plurality of protrusions extending outwardly of the outer surface of the tractive tubular member. 15. The clot removal device of claim 10, wherein the tractive tubular member includes at least a first portion having a first diameter and a second portion having a second diameter different than the first diameter. 16. A method for removing a clot from a distal blood vessel of a patient, the method comprising: advancing a clot removal device to a position within the vasculature of a patient, the clot removal device comprising a clot engaging element, a shaft, and a tractive tubular segment axially spaced from a proximal-most end of the clot engaging element;expanding the clot engaging element within the clot from a collapsed delivery configuration to an expanded configuration;proximally retracting the shaft to retract the clot engaging element, the shaft comprising a proximal section and a distal section, a distal end of the distal section of the shaft being connected to the clot engaging element; andsliding the tractive tubular segment relative to at least a portion of the length of the shaft distal section, the distal section of the shaft being slidable and rotatable relative to the tractive tubular segment during at least a portion of a movement of the shaft, wherein the tractive tubular segment encircles the shaft over the at least a portion of the length of the shaft distal section. 17. The method of claim 16, further including: limiting a distance of sliding of the tractive tubular segment relative to the shaft via a distal stop and a proximal stop positioned on the shaft. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein proximally retracting the shaft transmits a tensile force to the clot engaging element. 19. The method of claim 16, wherein an interface between the shaft and the tractive tubular segment comprises an outer surface of the shaft and a surface of a lumen of the tractive tubular segment, and wherein the coefficient of friction of the surface of the lumen is less than the coefficient of friction of an outer surface of the tractive tubular segment.
