    摘要: An apparatus for sealing a passage through tissue includes a bioabsorbable body disposed on a distal end of a handle device. The plug member includes a helical thread on its outer surface and the plug member and handle device include cooperating lumens communicating with a distal port. A sealing member is disposed within the plug member lumen. An obturator is inserted through the lumens until its distal tip extends beyond the plug member, the distal tip including a bleed back port. The plug member is threaded into a passage towards a blood vessel until the bleed back indicator identifies the location of the vessel with respect to the plug member. The plug member is released from the handle device, the handle device and obturator are withdrawn, and the sealing member seals the lumen. The plug member is left within the passage to seal the passage until the tissue heals.

    摘要: A catheter exchange member is provided for reducing exchange time when replacing one catheter (or similar device) with another in the vascular anatomy of a patient. The catheter exchange member includes a tubular body having a proximal and a distal end and a central lumen. A tapered fixture having a distal port and a proximal opening which is larger than the distal port is attached to the tubular body at the distal port. An elongate shaft is attached to and extends proximally from either the tapered fixture or the tubular body. The exchange member is preferably used within a conventional guiding catheter where the tubular body is advanced through a distal end of the guiding catheter and into the coronary artery while the tapered fixture remains in the guiding catheter. This configuration allows various therapeutic and diagnostic devices to be stored within the guiding catheter just proximal to the tapered fixture. One of the devices can be placed within the coronary artery by simply advancing it through the tapered fixture which channels the device into the tubular body and into the coronary artery. The device may be replaced with another by simply removing it and advancing the second device into the tapered fixture and into the coronary artery

    摘要: Apparatus and method are described for introducing an imaging catheter to the coronary vasculature. A guiding catheter is introduced so that the distal end of the guiding catheter engages a coronary os. The distal end of the guiding catheter is shaped so that a mark on the distal end is oriented in a predetermined orientation relative to the coronary vasculature. An imaging catheter is then introduced through the guiding catheter and an image of the mark is produced with the imaging catheter while in the guiding catheter. In this manner, the relative orientation of the produced image and the coronary vasculature is known.

    摘要: The claimed invention provides an improved tracking tip for use with a work element in a catheter system having a flexible tubular catheter body. Use of a tracking tip according to the present invention will facilitate advancement of the work element within the catheter body and will substantially eliminate the possibility that the work element will puncture the catheter body. Preferred embodiments will comprise a wire coil and will often include a rounded end member, which may be in the form of a solder ball, at the distal tip of the wire coil. In some embodiments, the rounded end member may be coated with a lubricant or a suitable non-stick material to further improve tracking of the work element within the catheter body.

    摘要: A catheter system includes a catheter sheath and a flexible working shaft within a working lumen of the sheath. The sheath includes a monorail-type guidewire lumen at its distal end, and a stiffening member is provided adjacent a side port of the monorail guidewire lumen to inhibit prolapse of the catheter as it is introduced past a bend or curve over a guidewire. In a first embodiment, the stiffening member may be secured directly within a working lumen of the catheter body. In a second embodiment, the stiffening member may be attached to a distal end of the working shaft, typically an imaging core.
