Abstract
【解決手段】収縮されている状態から、少なくとも部分的に内部で内腔を規定する拡張した状態にまで膨張できる可撓性を有するシースが提供される。シースは滑らかで比較的薄い壁を有し、それにより、曲がりくねったアナトミーを経由して及び/または比較的狭い通路中に、流体及び/又は器具を運ぶための折り畳み可能/膨張可能であるガイドを提供する。シースは、収縮した状態で、入口サイトから体管腔内に進行させられる。シースが目的とする体管腔に達すると、シースは拡張した状態に膨み、それによりシース内に内腔を規定し、流体および/または器具がシースの内腔を経由して体内に導入される。処理が終了すると、シースは体管腔から除去される。

Description
最小限の侵襲性の処置が、種々の医療の場において、例えば、脈官介入(例えば、脈管形成術、ステント植込み術、塞栓の予防、心臓電気刺激、心臓写像および明視化等)のために実施されてきた。これらの処置は、概して、器具を患者の脈管構造内に正確に誘導し、配置することに依存する。
そのような処置の間、ターゲット(または目的)とする管は、介在する脈管構造を経由して、ターゲットとする管に進行するガイドワイヤを用いてアクセスされ、それにより管に「線路」を与えることができる。1または複数の器具(例えば、カテーテル、シース等)がガイドワイヤまたは「レール」の上を進行して、管内に進行する。したがって、診断および/または治療処置は、これらの線路の上を1または複数の器具を進行させることにより実施され得る。
本発明は、医療処置の間、体管腔にアクセスするための、ならびに/または体管腔に器具および/もしくは薬剤を運ぶための装置および方法を概して対象としている。より特には、本発明は、ガイドシース、および当該ガイドシースを使用して患者の体管腔内(例えば、患者の冠状、神経および/または末梢の脈管構造内、患者の胃腸管、尿生殖管、呼吸器管、リンパ管系、および/または外科的に形成された流路内)に器具および/または薬剤を運ぶことを容易ならしめる方法を対象とする。
ここで図面を参照すると、図1A〜図2Bは、体管腔(図示せず)内へのアクセスを提供するための及び/または1または複数の器具(図示せず)を体管腔内へ送るための装置10の第1の好ましい形態を示す。体管腔は、例えば、患者の脈管構造内の管、尿生殖器管、呼吸器管、リンパ系、および患者の胃腸管内の通路等である。
