SYSTEM FOR DEPLOYING AN INDUCTIVE SHAPE MEMORY CATHETERIZATION DEVICE AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH |
摘要 |
A system for deploying a shape memory catheterization device within a patient, includes a catheter for endovascular insertion of the shape memory catheterization device. A heat source heats the shape memory catheterization device above the transition temperature. A transformation data generator includes a circuit driver for driving a circuit that includes at least one inductive element of the shape memory catheterization device and a detection circuit for generating transformation data based on an inductance of the at least one inductive element, wherein the transformation data indicates a shape transformation of the shape memory catheterization device from a catheterization shape to a transformed shape. |

1. A system for deploying a shape memory catheterization device within a patient, the system comprising:
shape memory member having a transition temperature that is higher than a normal body temperature of the patient; a catheter having a delivery rod for endovascular insertion of the shape memory member; a heat source for heating the shape memory member above the transition temperature; a transformation data generator, coupled to the catheter, that includes a circuit driver for driving a circuit that includes at least one inductive element of the shape memory member and a detection circuit for generating transformation data based on an inductance of the at least one inductive element, wherein the transformation data indicates a shape transformation of the shape memory member from a catheterization shape to a transformed shape. |
