摘要:
A catheter with a balloon mounted coaxially thereon, and a radiation emitting source disposed and essentially centered in the catheter distal portion.
摘要:
A balloon catheter with a tubular catheter shaft having a proximal and a distal end. The elongated dilatation balloon is arranged on the catheter shaft in the vicinity of the distal end. An indispensable covering sleeve is movable along the catheter shaft. The covering sleeve has a first portion with a first inner diameter surrounding the catheter shaft and a second portion with a second inner diameter being pushable over the deflated dilatation balloon. The second inner diameter is larger than said first inner diameter. The covering sleeve provides continuous adjustability of the fuller expandable balloon length.

The stent comprises a flexible self-expandable braided tubular wall having a proximal segment having an outer diameter, and a distal segment having an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the proximal segment. An intermediate segment is formed between proximal and distal segments, which forms a truncated cone of which the base is forming the proximal end of the intermediate segment and of which the top is forming the distal end of the intermediate segment. A covering layer is arranged within the tubular wall.
摘要:
A docking assembly for the extension of a guidewire. The docking assembly comprises a plug formed at the proximal end of the guidewire, and a socket formed of a tubing permanently bent so as to have a V shaped portion comprised between two straight portions. The end of straight portion is affixed to the distal end of extension wire. A sleeve is slidably engaged over the tubing to substantially straighten it and facilitate insertion of plug into the tubing. Removal of sleeve allows the tubing to recover its preshaped deformation, thereby assuring locking of plug in tubing. To release the assembly it suffices to pull the guidewire and extension wire oppositely to slip the plug out from the tubing.

The balloon catheter comprises a shaft with an elongated dilatation balloon mounted in the vicinity of the distal end thereof. Armature for preventing expansion of balloon segments are mounted on shaft proximally of the balloon and include an armature enclosed in a sleeve moveable over a proximal portion of the balloon.
摘要:
The coated stent comprises a cylindrical wall formed by meshed wires and a covering layer of elastic material extending on a portion of its length, with an outer surface, and totally embracing the wire mesh.Method of coating the stent using a lifting medium and then an elastomeric composition dissolved in solvent are disclosed.
摘要:
A device for implanting endoprostheses has a tubular outer body and an elongated core element placed inside of the outer body. To operate the device, both the core element and the tubular body are provided with handles at their proximal ends. In order to produce a form-locking connection between the endoprosthesis and the core element, the core element exhibits a region in which is impressed a stamping corresponding to the inner form of the endoprosthesis. As a result, there are a great number of form-locking meshing sites between the enclosed, folded endoprosthesis and the core element. A device with this type of design permits a partially released endoprostheses to be folded back up in a radially contracted state again by pushing the tubular body forward so that the endoprosthesis may be repositioned. In addition, sure and reliable operation is achieved by this type of stamping of the core element.
