摘要: A bow shaped, integrated wire catheter apparatus and method of use for access to, and laser or other treatment within, cavities and organs in the human body, the apparatus having a curvilinear shape but flexible enough to assume a generally elongated shape such that the apparatus can be extended through the vasculature in the generally elongated shape and can assume the curvilinear shape when extended into a body cavity or organ, the curvilinear shape serving to securely position the apparatus adjacent a selected surface within the body cavity or organ for laser or other treatment with a laser delivery device or other functional device thereon, the apparatus having a central axis, the apparatus comprising a main catheter shaft having a proximal end and an apex seeking and stabilizing distal end, the main catheter shaft having material of construction or other mechanism or means for causing a portion of the catheter shaft to have a bowed shape adjacent its distal end, the main catheter shaft having at least one hollow lumen extending axially and at least partially therethrough such that a bow shaped portion defines and distinguishes an outer arcuate sidewall for placement in contact with the selected area or areas for laser or other treatment thereon, and an inner arcuate sidewall, at least the outer arcuate sidewall having one or more guide holes disposed thereon for selectively providing laser or other treatment on the selected surface by controllably advancing a laser delivery device or other functional device selectively through the one or more guide holes to the selected surface. The catheter apparatus can be made at least partially of superelastic and/or shape memory materials of construction.

摘要: An elongated steerable catheter for placement within a heart chamber, organ aperture or other body opening and having at least one center tube with hollow passageway for guiding a laser delivery means or other functional device to selected surfaces of a heart chamber, organ aperture or other body cavity for laser or other treatment thereon, particularly adapted for laser-assisted percutaneous transmyocardial revascularization (TMR), is disclosed herein. The steerable catheter has a handle portion at its proximal end and a controllably deflectable end portion at its distal end. The elongated center tube has a distal end, in the region where a curvature is to be formed, and a shim anchor sleeve is slidably disposed over the center tube. The shim anchor sleeve is attached to the inside wall of the outer jacket and coupled to the distal end of the center tube with a bendable shim member which extends between the distal tip of the steerable catheter and the sleeve over the center tube. Opposite the shim is a guide for a pull cable, the pull cable attached to the distal end of the steerable catheter and extending through the guide to the handle. Thus, the shim is maintained radially opposite the pull cable with the center tube in between. An outer jacket has, in a preferred embodiment, distinct sections of different stiffness or durometer. A distal, more flexible portion is coupled to a proximal, stiffer portion. The shim anchor sleeve is positioned at or near the junction of two portions of the outer jacket. Thus, the center tube moves freely through the shim anchor sleeve. Adjacent the handle, the outer jacket terminates at the catheter base. The pull cable extends past the catheter base, through a deflection housing tube, and terminates in a cable stop. Rotation of a deflection knob threadably mounted onto the deflection housing tube will cause the pull cable to be pulled backward, or the outer jacket to be pushed forward, relative to each other, thereby inducing deflection of the distal end of the steerable catheter.
