    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described including a blood pump that includes an axial shaft configured for insertion into, and rotation within, a subject's body. The blood pump also includes an impeller, which includes a proximal bushing disposed over the axial shaft, a distal bushing disposed over the axial shaft distally from the proximal bushing, and one or more blades. Each of the blades includes a single inner helical elongate element, a single outer helical elongate element, and a film of material extending between the inner helical elongate element and the outer helical elongate element. The blades are proximally coupled to the proximal bushing and distally coupled to the distal bushing such that, as the axial shaft rotates, the blades rotate, thereby pumping blood of the subject. Other applications are also described.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided, including inserting a drive-cable-bearing tube, which includes one or more inwardly-facing ceramic portions, into a body of a subject and through an aorta of the subject, such that the inwardly-facing ceramic portions are within an aortic arch of the subject, while a drive cable, which is coupled to an intracorporeal device at a distal end of the drive-cable-bearing tube and includes one or more outwardly-facing ceramic portions, passes through the drive-cable-bearing tube such that the outwardly-facing ceramic portions are aligned with the inwardly-facing ceramic portions. The drive cable is rotated within the drive-cable-bearing tube, thereby rotating the intracorporeal device, while the outwardly-facing ceramic portions are aligned with the inwardly-facing ceramic portions. Other applications are also described.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described including inserting a catheter into a subject's body via a vein of the subject's groin. The catheter is advanced distally such that a distal end of the catheter is disposed inside the subject's renal vein. Respective stabilizing portions of the catheter stabilize the catheter by being in contact with inner walls of, respectively, an iliac vein of the subject, and a vena cava of the subject. Subsequently, a medical device is deployed inside the renal vein by retracting the distal end of the catheter, such that the distal end of the catheter is in a retracted state, in which the respective stabilizing portions of the catheter still stabilize the catheter by being in contact with the inner walls of, respectively, the subject's iliac vein and the subject's vena cava. Other applications are also described.

    Abstract translation: 描述了装置和方法,包括经由受试者的腹股沟的静脉将导管插入受试者的身体。 导管向远侧推进,使得导管的远端设置在受试者的肾静脉内。 导管的相应的稳定部分通过与受试者的髂内静脉的内壁和受试者的腔静脉接触来稳定导管。 随后,通过缩回导管的远端部分将医疗装置部署在肾静脉内部,使得导管的远端处于缩回状态,其中导管的各个稳定部分仍然通过进入导管来稳定导管 分别与受试者的髂内静脉和受试者的腔静脉的内壁接触。 还描述了其它应用。
