    摘要: An introducer system delivers therapy locally to a renal system in a patient. A proximal coupler assembly is coupled to an introducer sheath that delivers multiple devices simultaneously into a location within an abdominal aorta associated with first and second renal artery ostia. The coupler assembly has a network of branch lumens arranged to allow for smooth slideable engagement of multiple coupled devices without substantial interference therebetween. A first branch lumen typically introduces a percutaneous translumenal interventional device such as an angiography or guiding catheter into the introducer sheath and is substantially aligned with a longitudinal axis of the sheath. One or more other branch lumen are off-axis from the longitudinal axis by about 30 degrees or less and introduce components of a bilateral renal delivery assembly into the introducer sheath in conjunction with the other device. Novel insertion devices are provided to coordinate the coupling of the multiple devices.

    摘要: A system and method is provided that is adapted to allow for rapid cannulation of a guidewire into a branch lumen extending from a main lumen in a body of a patient, and in particular into two renal arteries extending from an abdominal aorta wall. A dual lumen catheter shaft delivers first and second pre-shaped guidewires to the location of the renal arteries in the aorta, such that the first and second pre-shaped guidewires self-cannulate within the renal arteries. Additional guidewires and/or interventional devices may be incorporated into the system and method for use with the catheter shaft, or over the two pre-shaped guidewires, to meet a particular need for a particular patient or intended procedure.

    摘要: A practical control device having up to eight independent channels of communication for simultaneously operating a plurality of electromechanical devices or for simultaneously performing a plurality of independent functions on an electromechanical device, such as a prosthetic hand, includes a foot-operated controller and a microprocessor. The foot-controller includes a plurality of pressure sensors mounted at selected locations on a substrate. The microprocessor converts sensor inputs from the foot-operated controller into commands for a controllable electromechanical device such as a prosthetic hand. Commands may be communicated via a radio transmitter or via hard-wiring.
