Abstract

1401477 Probes, pacing electrodes ELECTRO-CATHETER CORP 20 Sept 1972 [20 April 1972] 43553/72 Heading A5R An elongated tubular assembly for insertion into body cavities has at its forward end a probe 16 including spaced proximal and distal members 38, 40 and inflatable means 70 interconnecting the members for inhibiting the transfer of forces therebetween, the rearward end of the asembly being formed with means communicating with the forward end and receiving a fluid for inflating the inflatable means 70. The assembly may be used with a heart pacemaker machine, an annular electrode 54 being secured to member 38 and a cupshaped electrode 56 secured by solder 60 to distal member 40. The members 38, 40 are connected by a balloon. The probe is con nected by tubing 12 to an adaptor 14 having a branch 22 receiving electrical conductors 24, 26 for coupling to the electrode connectors 68, 62. A syringe 36 vented to atmosphere is attached to adaptor 14 and provides means for inflating the balloon 70 and the adaptor 14 includes check valves for controlling the flow of air or other fluid therethrough. The assembly may also be used to remove clots from the circulatory system.
