摘要:
A delivery system and method for delivering a pulmonary artery lead into a pulmonary artery includes a delivery device having an inflatable balloon at a distal end. The device is inserted into the venous system, the balloon is inflated and the device is floated along a blood flow path within the venous system through the heart and into the pulmonary artery. The lead is delivered into the pulmonary artery using the device. In one embodiment, the device is a catheter that facilitates placement of an implantation catheter and/or a guide wire into the pulmonary artery for delivery of the lead. In another embodiment, the lead is mounted over the catheter. In yet another embodiment, the delivery device is formed at the distal end of the lead.
