    摘要: A method including: introducing a shunt into a vascular system, wherein the shunt includes an inlet aperture in an inlet region and an outlet aperture in an outlet region; positioning the inlet region into an epidural or intervertebral vein; with a stylet, puncturing a wall of the epidural or intervertebral vein, traversing an interstitial space, and puncturing a thecal sac, wherein the stylet includes a wire extending through the shunt; moving the shunt to cause the inlet region to extend through a wall of the epidural or intervertebral vein; moving the shunt to cause the inlet region to extend into an interstitial space; and moving the shunt to cause the inlet region to extend through the thecal sac, such that the inlet region is positioned in an intradural space, and such that the outlet region is positioned in a venous pathway.

    摘要: An introducer includes an introducer hub and a vasodilating drug-delivery introducer sheath coupled to the hub and extending distally therefrom. The introducer sheath may include a primary lumen and infusion lumens for delivering a therapeutic agent such as a vasodilator through ports in the introducer sheath or may include an outer porous layer for the therapeutic agent to be delivered to the vessel, or may include at least one drug-coated outer layer for the therapeutic agent to be released from the drug-coated outer layer.
