    摘要: A sheath for facilitating a guide wire exchange is defined by an elongated tubular member having a proximal end, a distal end and a single thru lumen. The sheath also has a proximal insertion opening and a distal insertion opening in communication with the thru lumen. The sheath includes a distal guide segment for "single operator" insertion and a peelable extent for peelably removing the sheath after use. The distal guide segment is formed along a distal portion of the elongated tubular member. The sheath is inserted along a pre-inserted guide wire by inserting a proximal end of the pre-inserted guide wire through a guide lumen of the distal guide segment. The sheath is advanced distally along the pre-inserted guide wire to a desired position and thereafter the pre-inserted guide wire is withdrawn. A re-shaped guide wire or substitute guide wire is inserted through the proximal insertion opening and advanced through the thru lumen of the sheath to a treatment site. The sheath is withdrawn while peelably removing the tubular member from the inserted guide wire.

    摘要: An over-the-wire balloon dilatation catheter has a stainless steel hypotube catheter shaft, an intermediate sleeve section bonded to the shaft and a distal balloon section connected to the sleeve section. The sleeve section is formed from relatively flexible polymer materials and includes an inner core tube which defines a guide wire lumen extending only through a distal portion of the catheter (including its sleeve and balloon sections) to facilitate fast balloon catheter exchanges. A distal end of the hypotube shaft is crimped laterally and the core tube is nested and bonded within the crimp to provide a proximal outlet for the guide wire lumen. The hypotube shaft provides an inflation lumen for the balloon, with the inflation lumen being continued as an annular inflation lumen through the sleeve section where an outer sleeve is bonded about the core tube and extends from the distal end of the hypotube shaft to the balloon section. A kink-resistant coil structure extends distally from the distal end of the hypotube shaft to provide a gradual change in stiffness along the length of the catheter from the relatively stiff hypotube shaft to the relatively flexible distal portion of the catheter.

    摘要: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed by which the blood pressure, nervous system activity, and neurohormonal activity may be selectively and controllably reduced by activating baroreceptors. A baroreceptor activation device is positioned near a baroreceptor, preferably a baroreceptor located in the carotid sinus. A control system may be used to modulate the baroreceptor activation device. The control system may utilize an algorithm defining a stimulus regimen which promotes long term efficacy and reduces power requirements/consumption. The baroreceptor activation device may utilize RF-coupled or other electrodes to activate the baroreceptors. The electrodes may be adapted for connection to the carotid arteries at or near the carotid sinus, and may be designed to minimize extraneous tissue stimulation.
