    摘要: The invention provides a device for heating or cooling a surrounding fluid in a feeding vessel and a method of manufacturing the same. The device includes a catheter assembly capable of insertion to a selected blood vessel in the vascular system of a patient. The assembly includes an elongated catheter body, a heat transfer element located at a distal portion of the catheter body and including an interior, an elongated supply lumen adapted to deliver a working fluid to the interior of the heat transfer element and having a hydraulic diameter, an elongated return lumen adapted to return a working fluid from the interior of the heat transfer element and having a hydraulic diameter, and wherein the ratio of the hydraulic diameter of the return lumen to the hydraulic diameter of the supply lumen is substantially equal to 0.75. The method of manufacturing the catheter assembly involves extruding an elongated catheter body; locating a heat transfer element including an interior at a distal portion of the catheter body; extruding an integrated elongated bi-lumen member including a first lumen adapted to receive a guide wire and a second lumen having a hydraulic diameter, the second lumen comprising either a supply lumen to deliver a working fluid to an interior of the heat transfer element or a return lumen to return a working fluid from the interior of the heat transfer element; and providing the integrated bi-lumen member substantially within the elongated catheter body so that a third lumen having a hydraulic diameter is formed, the third lumen comprising either a supply lumen to deliver a working fluid to an interior of the heat transfer element or a return lumen to return a working fluid from the interior of the heat transfer element and the ratio of the second lumen hydraulic diameter to the third lumen hydraulic diameter is substantially equal to 0.75.
