    Abstract: A surgical access device assembly includes a cannula hub and a cannula tube. The cannula tube extends distally from the cannula hub along a longitudinal axis. The cannula tube defines a working channel. The cannula tube includes a tissue engagement feature and a balancing feature. The balancing feature is configured to promote lateral stability of the cannula tube and the cannula hub relative to the body cavity wall of the patient. The balancing feature includes a proximal portion of the cannula tube having a first wall thickness. The balancing feature also includes a distal portion of the cannula tube having a second wall thickness that is greater than the first wall thickness. At least a portion of the proximal portion is proximal relative to the tissue engagement feature. At least a portion of the distal portion is distal relative to the tissue engagement feature.

    Abstract: An access catheter provides access for a large bore stiff therapeutic catheter across the atrial septum from above via the superior vena cava. The access catheter has an expandable member that direct a delivery tube outwards in a radial direction to place a delivery tube opening into direct contact with the fossa ovalis. The braided expandable member allows blood flow to pass when it is expanded; the expandable member provides support against the opposite wall of the right atrium. A hollow dilator tube enters the delivery tube to form a tenting shape to the fossa and a guidewire is passed across the fossa ovalis. Standard procedure allows delivery of the therapeutic catheter over the guidewire.
