Definitions
- the present invention is related generally to medical devices. More specifically, the present invention is related to catheters.
- the present invention includes stent delivery catheter apparatus with a tapered tip that is fracturable during deployment of a self-expanding stent that has been loaded onto the catheter.
- Atherosclerotic disease is a leading cause of death in the industrialized world, particularly in the United States.
- Many heart attacks and strokes are caused in part by a narrowed, stenosed blood vessel.
- a medical procedure commonly used to deal with vessel stenosis is angioplasty.
- Angioplasty in particular Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA)
- PTA Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty
- the balloon can then be inflated to widen or dilate the narrowed region.
- the balloon catheter can then be withdrawn.
- the widened vessel rebounds or re-closes, narrowing the vessel over a period of time.
- Stents have come into increasing use to prevent the widened vessel regions from narrowing after angioplasty.
- a stent typically having a tubular shape, can be put in place in the widened vessel region to hold the vessel walls apart and the lumen open in the event the conditions would otherwise result in re-stenosis.
- One class of stents requires that the stent be forcibly outwardly expanded to put the stent into position against the vessel walls.
- Another class of stents, self-expanding stents can be delivered to a site in a compressed or constrained configuration and released in the vessel region to be supported.
- the self-expanding stent then expands in place to a configuration having a wide lumen, typically pressing firmly against the vessel walls where released.
- the stent is commonly placed at a recently dilated, stenosed vessel region.
- Self-expanding stents can be delivered to a target site mounted over an inner tube or shaft and constrained within the distal end of an enclosing retractable tube or sleeve.
- the self-expanding stent can be freed from the restraint of the outer sheath by either distally pushing the inner shaft against the stent or proximally pulling the retractable outer sheath from over the stent.
- the self- expanding stent can expand to force itself against the vessel inner walls.
- Self- expanding stents are often elastically biased to assume an original larger shape after being temporarily compressed into a smaller size to more easily be transported through blood vessels to the target site.
- catheters that deliver self-expanding stents There is an ongoing need for improvements in catheters that deliver self-expanding stents.
- a self-expanding stent delivery assembly includes a shaft having a proximal end, a distal end, a distal region, a lumen, and a longitudinal axis.
- a retractable sheath having an outer surface, a proximal end and a distal end is co- axially disposed around the shaft distal region.
- a stent is disposed co-axially between the shaft and the retractable sheath.
- a tubular tapered tip is bonded to the retractable sheath distal end.
- the tubular tapered tip has an elongate region predisposed to fracturing.
- a method of delivering a self-expanding stent includes placing a stent delivery device at a target site.
- the stent delivery device includes a shaft having a proximal end, a distal end, a distal region, a lumen, and a longitudinal axis; a retractable sheath having a proximal end and a distal end co-axially disposed around the shaft distal region; a stent disposed co-axially between the shaft and the retractable sheath; and a tubular tapered tip bonded to the retractable sheath distal end, the tubular tapered tip having an elongate region predisposed to fracturing.
- the stent is deployed at the target site by retracting the retractable sheath or advancing the stent and fracturing the elongate region predisposed to fracturing.
