DEFLECTABLE CATHETER ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME |
摘要 |
<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a deflectable catheter assembly. <P>SOLUTION: The deflectable catheter assembly comprises a catheter shaft having a catheter proximal section and a catheter distal section, and at least one lumen extending therethrough. The catheter distal section is more flexible than the catheter proximal section. A tendon is disposed within a first lumen of the catheter shaft. The first lumen is approximately centrally located within the catheter shaft at the catheter proximal section. The first lumen is positioned off-center of the catheter shaft at the catheter distal section. The tendon is able to deflect the catheter distal section when being pulled on. A catheter handle is coupled to the catheter shaft at the catheter proximal section, the catheter handle includes a control mechanism to control the tendon. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
