摘要: A body implantable lead for placement in a selected coronary vein includes a resilient retention structure for inhibiting displacement of the lead because of heart beat action, breathing or other body movement. The retention structure includes a plurality of resilient projections that are attached to the lead body and which are adapted to project at a predetermined acute angle to the axis of the lead body when unconstrained. Prior to being routed through the vascular system, the projections can be bonded to the lead body to provide a low profile with a biodegradable adhesive. Following exposure to body fluids, the adhesive dissolves, releasing the projections so that they can engage the walls of the vein in which the lead is disposed.

摘要: An improved guidewire for assisting in implantation of a cardiac lead includes three sections. The most distal zone is sufficiently floppy to prevent trauma to the vessel walls through which the guidewire and lead are inserted. An intermediate zone is generally stiffer and has a cross-section less than or equal to the cross-section of the distal zone. The third zone is stiffer yet and is joined to the intermediate zone by a shoulder. The shoulder cooperates with protrusions on the lead to transfer forces between the guidewire and lead. A removal wire having temporary locking device to lock the removal wire to the lead is employed to remove the guide catheter without moving the lead from its desired location. Lubricious coatings are also provided to reduce friction between the lead and guidewire.

摘要: An intravenous lead for use with a cardiac device for implantation in the coronary venous system of the heart includes a lead body that is adapted to be routed through the vascular system into the coronary sinus with the distal end portion of the lead placed in the great cardiac vein or branch vein. The lead body includes a fixation member disposed just proximal of its tip. The fixation member comprises a radially expandable polymeric matrix that incorporates an osmotic agent so that when placed in a aqueous medium it will swell. Thus, when placed in a cardiac vein, the swelling of the fixation member will anchor the lead against longitudinal displacement due to body motion, blood flow and the beating action of the heart.

摘要: An apparatus for positioning a cardiac lead in the vasculature of the heart includes a guide catheter, a sleeve and a guidewire. The guide catheter has an inflatable balloon at its distal end and a central lumen open distally to the exterior of the catheter for injection of dye or advancement of a guidewire through the guide catheter and past its distal end. The guide sleeve replaces the guide catheter once the guidewire is in position so that a lead can be advanced over the guidewire with the sleeve.

摘要: A catheter assembly for cannulating an ostium of a coronary sinus of a heart comprises an outer catheter member and an inner catheter member. The outer catheter member has a distal end portion including a deflectable distal end and a lumen extending through the deflectable distal end, wherein the distal end portion includes regions of varying stiffness and has a pre-formed curvature. The inner catheter member is slidably and rotatably disposed within the lumen of the outer catheter member, and has a distal end portion including a distal end, and a lumen extending through the distal end. The distal end portion of the inner catheter member has regions of varying stiffness and a pre-formed curvature. The outer and inner catheter members are configured such that relative translation and rotation of the outer and inner catheter members causes the distal end of the outer catheter member to assume a plurality of two and three dimensional shapes.
