1. An occlusion catheter system comprising:
a proximal hub;
a flow valve configured to selectively fluidly communicate the proximal hub with an inflation device;
a proximal catheter section in fluid communication with the proximal hub;
a distal catheter section distally terminating with an atraumatic tip;
an intervening occlusion balloon connecting the proximal catheter section with the distal catheter section, the occlusion balloon being compliant;
at least one length marking on an exterior of the proximal catheter section to indicate an insertion depth of the occlusion catheter system;
a lumen extending from the proximal hub through the proximal catheter section and into fluid communication with the occlusion balloon;
a solid wire, secured at a proximal-most end thereof within the proximal hub, and extending within the proximal catheter section, the occlusion balloon and into the distal catheter section; and
the proximal catheter section, the occlusion balloon and the distal catheter section having a greatest outer diameter of less than 6 Fr in an uninflated configuration.
