Definitions
- the present invention relates to a catheter for delivering a device through tortuous anatomy and to a stent deliverable by.
- Embodiments of the present invention relate to a catheter configured for delivering a deployable device such as a stent through tortuous blood vessels.
- Minimally invasive diagnostic or therapeutic procedures oftentimes utilize catheters that are navigated through vessels such as blood vessels, urinary tract vessels, fallopian tubes, bile ducts, and the like.
- An intravascular catheter is inserted and advanced through an introducer positioned at an access site (e.g., femoral artery) and is manually guided through the vasculature to a desired location.
- an access site e.g., femoral artery
- Intravascular catheters must be flexible enough to navigate through tortuous vasculature without damaging tissue, yet stiff enough to provide the pushability necessary for advancement through the vasculature and support for internally guided medical devices such as stents.
- catheters can have a stiff main body portion and a softer distal portion.
- the stiff main body portion gives the catheter sufficient pushability and torqueability while the distal portion is soft enough to allow tracking over a guide wire and maneuvering through a tortuous path in the vasculature.
- catheters can be successfully guided through tortuous anatomy to deliver therapeutics
- a deployable device such as a stent
- such catheters lose some of their maneuverability due to the fact that the stent is carried on the distal portion of the catheter and as such it increases the stiffness of the catheter distal portion.
- a catheter for stent delivery comprising an elongated catheter body having an outer catheter tube surrounding an inner catheter tube, the elongated catheter body having a distal portion that is more elastic than a proximally adjacent portion of the elongated catheter body; a stent holder for holding a stent within the outer catheter tube at the proximally adjacent portion; a first mechanism for advancing the stent forward into the distal portion; and a second mechanism for pulling back the outer catheter tube to thereby deploy the stent.
- the inner catheter tube includes a guidewire lumen.
- the guidewire lumen extends from a first opening at a distal tip of the elongated catheter body to a second opening at a side wall of the outer catheter tube.
- the catheter further comprises a nose cone attached to a distal end of the elongated catheter body.
- the stent is advanced forward against the nose cone.
- pulling back the outer catheter tube to thereby deploy the stent disengages it from the stent holder.
- the distal portion is 20-80 mm in length.
- the distal portion has an elasticity of 170-513 mPa.
- the catheter further comprises a handle for activating the first and the second mechanism.
- a method of delivering a stent through a tortuous blood vessel comprising advancing a catheter having a distal portion that is more elastic than a proximally adjacent portion through the tortuous blood vessel, the catheter carrying a stent within the proximally adjacent portion; advancing the stent forward into the distal portion and deploying the stent.

- the inner catheter tube includes a guidewire lumen.
- the guidewire lumen extends from a first opening at a distal tip of the elongated catheter body to a second opening at a side wall of the outer catheter tube.
- the catheter further comprises a nose cone attached to a distal end of the elongated catheter body.
- the stent is advanced forward against the nose cone.
- deploying the stent is effected by pulling back the outer catheter tube.
- the distal portion is 20-80 mm in length.
- the distal portion has an elasticity of 170-513 mPa.
- FIG. 1A illustrates an embodiment of the present delivery catheter having a standard over-the-wire configuration.
- FIGs. 1B-E illustrate advancement and deployment of a stent carried by the delivery catheter of Figure 1A.
- FIG. 2A-C illustrate the present catheter connected to a handle with the slider button in stent preloaded position (Figure 2A) and forward deployed position (Figure 2B) and the y- connector in a pulled-back position to unsheathe stent ( Figure 2C).
- FIG. 2D illustrates the internal components of the handle shown in Figures 2A-C.

- FIG. 3 illustrates the guidewire lumen and stent advancement mechanism of the rapid exchange embodiment of the present delivery catheter.
- FIGs. 4A-D illustrate advancement and deployment of a stent carried by the rapid exchange embodiment of the present delivery catheter.
- FIG. 5 schematically illustrates a stent constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention and deliverable using the present catheter system
- FIG. 6 is a prototype stent constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention.
- the present invention is of a delivery catheter which can be used to deliver a deployable device through tortuous anatomy. Specifically, the present invention can be used to deliver a stent to a site at or past tortuous anatomy.
- Catheters for deploying devices such as stents in the vasculature typically carry such devices at or near the distal end of the catheter. Once positioned in place, the stent is either unsheated for self-deployment or is expanded via balloon inflation. While maneuvering such catheters in non-tortuous vasculature is straightforward, tortuous vasculature can present a challenge due to the fact that the distally-mounted stent substantially increases the stiffness of the catheter distal portion and thus reduces maneuverability.
- the present inventor devised a catheter system that can be easily maneuvered through tortuous vessels and yet can deliver a stent or any other deployable device to a body vessel site at or past the tortuous vessel.
- a catheter for delivering a deployable device such as a stent into a body vessel for delivering a deployable device such as a stent into a body vessel.
- deploymentable device refers to any device that can be deployed from a delivery catheter at an anatomical location such as a lumen of a blood vessel. Examples include stents (including stent grafts), coils and the like.
- body vessel refers to any vessel or conduit inside the body. Examples include blood vessels (e.g., artery, vein), urinary tract vessels, the spinal column, fallopian tubes, bile ducts, and the like.
- blood vessels e.g., artery, vein
- urinary tract vessels e.g., the spinal column
- fallopian tubes e.g., the bile ducts, and the like.
- the present catheter includes an elongated catheter body having an outer catheter tube surrounding an inner catheter tube.
- the elongated catheter body is attached at a proximal end to a handle and a nose cone at the distal end.
- the elongated catheter body includes a distal portion that is more elastic than a proximally adjacent portion of the elongated catheter body.
- Such a distal portion can be 20-80 mm in length with an elastic modulus of 12-170 mPa (Such as Pebax 2533 or Pebax 5533 or any other polymer with such durometer).
- the elastic/flexible portion of the catheter body facilitates navigation through tortuous vessels without damaging vessel walls.
- the rest of the catheter body including the proximally adjacent portion can be 20-2000 mm in length with an elastic modulus of 170-513 mPa. (Such as Pebax 5533 or Pebax 7233 or any other polymer with such durometer).
- the external diameter of the elongated catheter body can be 1.0-8.0 mm.
- the outer catheter tube can have an internal diameter of 0.8-7.8 mm and the inner catheter tube can have an external diameter of 0.5-2 mm and an internal diameter of 0.3- 1.8 mm.
- the inner catheter tube can run the length of catheter body or to an opening along the length of the outer catheter tube (100-400 mm from the distal end of the outer tube).
- the lumen of the inner catheter tube serves as a guidewire lumen in a standard over-the-wire configuration or a rapid exchange configuration.
- the present catheter can also include a holder for advancing and optionally holding the deployable device (e.g., stent) within the outer catheter tube and around the inner catheter tube at the proximally adjacent portion.
- the deployable device e.g., stent
- the present catheter maintains the stent proximally to the flexible distal portion of the catheter body (at the proximally adjacent portion) and enables navigation through tortuous anatomy.
- the present catheter can further include a first mechanism for advancing the stent forward into the distal portion (and against the nose cone).
- a mechanism is deployable from the handle and includes a pushrod/wire (within a sleeve) running from the handle actuation mechanism to the stent holder.
- the present catheter can further include a second mechanism for pulling back the outer catheter tube (against the inner catheter tube) to thereby deploy the stent.
- a mechanism is deployable from the handle and includes a handle actuation mechanism that is attached to the outer catheter tube. Deployment of the stent (radial expansion) disengages the stent from the stent holder (if the stent is engaged thereto) and enables delivery thereof to the vessel lumen.
- the rapid exchange configuration of the present catheter requires two adjacent lumens to move one relative to the other within an external surrounding lumen.
- the guidewire lumen is concentric distally to the stent holder in order to allow stent loading (advancing forward).
- the present catheter is particularly suitable for delivery of deployable devices through tortuous anatomy.
- One such deployable device is a stent that can be delivered through tortuous blood vessels of the brain (e.g., veins) for the purpose of dilating strictures.
- FIGS 1-4D illustrate several embodiments of a catheter (referred to hereinunder as catheter 10) suitable for delivering a device such as a stent to a location in the vasculature system.
- catheter 10 a catheter suitable for delivering a device such as a stent to a location in the vasculature system.
- Figures 1A-E illustrate an over-the-wire configuration of catheter 10 whereas Figures 3 and 4A-D illustrate a rapid exchange configuration of catheter 10.
- Figures 2A-D illustrates a handle that can be used with the rapid exchange configuration of catheter 10.
- Catheter 10 includes an elongated catheter body 12 having an outer catheter tube 14 surrounding an inner catheter tube 16.
- the lumen of inner catheter tube 16 serves as a guidewire 17 lumen.
- Elongated catheter body 12 is attached at a proximal end 18 to a handle 50 ( Figure 2) and a nose cone 22 at the distal end 23.
- Elongated catheter body 12 can include a distal portion 24 that is more elastic than a proximally adjacent portion 26 although a catheter 10 having an elongated catheter body 12 with a unitary elasticity throughout its length is also envisaged herein.
- Distal portion 24 of catheter body 12 can facilitate navigation through tortuous vessels without damaging vessel walls.
- Elongated catheter body 12 is configured for carrying a stent 30 within outer catheter tube 14 and over inner catheter tube 16 at proximally adjacent portion 26.
- Stent 30 can be a selfdeploying stent or a balloon expanded stent, a self-deploying stent is shown in the Figures.
- Stent 30 can be 15-80 mm in length, 1-8 mm in diameter (when packed within outer tube 14, Figure 1A) and 2-24 mm in diameter when expanded (as is shown in Figure IE).
- Stent 30 of the configuration shown in the Figures is designed for deployment within brain blood vessels for the purpose of treating stenosis or strictures.
- Catheter 10 further includes a stent holder 32 for advancing the stent forward.
- the stent holder can also engage the stent via, for example, radial protrusions for engaging eyelets formed within proximal struts of stent 30.
- Expansion of stent 30 ( Figure IE) caused by unsheathing (pulling back outer catheter tube 14, as is further described hereinbelow) releases the eyelets from the radial protrusions and disengages stent 30 from holder 32.
- Holder 32 is movable over inner catheter tube 16 (and within outer catheter tube 14) via a wire/rod 34 that is connected to a first mechanism within the handle (further described below with reference to Figures 2A-D). Holder can be advanced to move stent 30 forward into distal portion 24 and retracted to pull stent 30 back into proximally adjacent portion 26 if need be (e.g., to abort deployment or reposition catheter 10).
- Outer catheter tube 14 is connected to a second mechanism within the handle that actuates unsheathing of stent 30 by pulling back outer catheter tube 14 with respect to inner catheter tube 16.
- Inner catheter tube 16 is connected to mid tube 36 which connects to handle body 52 ( Figure 2A).
- Catheter 10 is navigated over-the-wire through the blood vessel with stent 30 carried within proximally adjacent portion 26 (Figure IB). Once in position, stent 30 is advanced to distal portion 24 against nose cone 22 ( Figure 1C, outer catheter tube shown in section view for clarity) and outer catheter tube 14 is pulled back using the second handle mechanism to allow stent 30 to expand ( Figure 1D-E). Such expansion releases stent 30 from holder 32 to thereby deploy it at the site of treatment. Outer catheter tube 14 can then be advanced forward to cover distal portion 24 and catheter 10 can be removed from the body.
- FIGS 2A-D illustrate a handle (referred to herein as handle 50) that can be used with catheter 10.
- Handle 50 includes a handle body 52 (formed from two halves) that houses a first mechanism 54 for advancing and retracting stent 30, and a second mechanism 56 (Y-connector 56) for longitudinally translating outer catheter tube 14 with respect to inner catheter tube 16.
- Y-connector 56 can also include an irrigation port 57.
- Outer Catheter tube 16 is connected to mid catheter tube 36.
- Tube 36 is fixed to handle 52 via cone 58 ( Figure 2D) with outer catheter tube 14 and holder 32 being movable relative to catheter tube 36.
- Figure 2A illustrates the initial handle position in which button/slider advancement mechanism 54 is in a proximal position and Y-connector 56 is in a distal position relative to handle 52.
- Button/slider advancement mechanism 54 is connected to wire ⁇ rod 34.
- advancement mechanism 54 is moved distally ( Figure 2B) to advance stent 30 to distal portion 24.
- Stent 30 is then unsheathed by pulling Y-connector 56 (proximally) relative to handle 52 ( Figure 2C). At this position, stent 30 is fully unsheathed and is free to selfexpand and release from holder ⁇ pusher 32.
- Figures 2E-G illustrates another embodiment of handle 100 that can be used with catheter 10.
- Handle 100 includes a handle body 102 and a ratchet-like advancement mechanism 104 (Figure 2E).
- Figures 2F-G illustrate the internal components of handle 100 and in particular advancement mechanism 104.
- Handle 100 includes a handle body 102 (formed from two halves) that houses mechanism 104 for advancing and retracting stent 30, and a gear mechanism 105 that includes knob 106, gear 112 and rack 111 for longitudinally translating outer catheter tube 14 with respect to inner catheter tube 36.
- Mechanism 104 also includes an irrigation port 109.
- Outer Catheter tube 14 is connected to catheter tube 18.
- Tube 36 is fixed to handle 102 via flush port 108 ( Figures 2F-G) with outer catheter tube 18 and holder 32 being movable relative to catheter tube 36.
- Mechanism 104 also include a loading advancement actuator 110 that is connected to wire/rod 34 and a release button 107 that prevents premature release of stent 30.
- Figure 2F illustrates an initial handle position in which loading/advancement actuator 110 is in a proximal position and rack 111 is in a distal position relative to handle 102.
- Actuator 110 is connected to wire/rod 34.
- actuator 110 is moved distally ( Figure 2G) to advance stent 30 to distal portion 24.
- Stent 30 is then unsheathed by turning knob 106 (clockwise) relative to handle 102 ( Figure 2G). At this position, stent 30 is fully unsheathed and is free to self-expand and release from holder/pusher 32.
- FIGS 3 and 4A-D illustrate a rapid exchange configuration of catheter 10.
- Catheter 10 includes an elongated catheter body 12, an outer catheter tube 14 and an inner catheter tube 16.
- Inner catheter tube 16 does not extend the length of elongated catheter body 12 (as is the case with the configuration shown in figures 1A-E) but rather extends from nose cone 22 to an opening 29 (Figure 4A) along a length of outer catheter tube 14 (100-300 mm from distal end 23).
- a lumen 21 of inner catheter tube serves as a guidewire lumen and as such, the guidewire inserts at nose cone 22 opening 39 and exits at opening 29.
- wire/rod 34 translates holder 32 and stent 30 carried thereby over inner tube 16 to move stent 30 from proximally adjacent portion 26 and into distal portion 24 (Figure 4B) following catheter navigation and prior to stent 30 deployment ( Figures 4C-D).
- the rapid exchange configuration of catheter 10 provides several advantages including:
- Catheter 10 of the present invention can be used in a cerebral vein, cerebral arteries, Renal arteries and veins, coronary arteries or any other suitable vessels.
- the advantage of the system is its ability to cross through a tortuous anatomy.
- the guidewire is held fixed in position and catheter 10 is advanced over the wire to position the distal portion of catheter 10 at the site of treatment.
- Stent 30 is then advanced within catheter 14 to distal section 24 ( Figures 1C, 4B) by pushing distally deployment mechanism 54 ( Figure 2B).
- Y-connector 56 is then pulled proximally towards handle body 52 ( Figure 2C) to pull back outer tube 14 and unsheath stent 30, allowing it to expand. Once stent 30 is fully exposed it releases from holder 32. The catheter is then pulled out of the blood vessel.
- delivery catheter 10 can be used to deliver any stent 30.
- the present inventor realized that open braid stents can snag on the delivery sheath (outer catheter tube 14) when pushed distally during loading.
- the present inventor treated the ends of wires 31 forming the braid of stent 30 (as is shown in Figure 5) to form balllike protrusions 33 so as to reduce the likelihood of such snagging.
- a prototype of the present delivery catheter and an off-the-shelf delivery catheter were used to deliver a stent to the internal mammary vein of pigs; ease of delivery and histological impact on vein tissue were assessed for both catheters.
- Each animal was placed in dorsal recumbency and a Hartmann solution (1 Liter x2) was administered IV via constant rate infusion.
- An introducer sheath was placed in a femoral artery for blood pressure and vital signs measurements. Heparin was administered IV to maintain activated clotting time (ACT) of 250-350 sec, throughout the procedure.
- An introducer sheath of an appropriate size was placed in the femoral vein and a pigtail/multipurpose catheter was inserted over a guidewire, through the sheath in the femoral vein and a radiopaque solution was injected to perform fluoroscopic angiography.
- the off-the-shelf delivery catheter loaded with the stent (Cordis Pro RX 8x40) was advanced through the introducer sheath in the femoral vein, over the guidewire, to the right or left internal mammary vein; the stent was then self-expanded via unsheathing.
- the vein diameter at the selected site for implantation was measured and recorded prior to implantation and was in the range of 3-7 mm.
- the present catheter was used to deliver the new stent design shown in Figure 6 (7X50) into a pig mammary vein using the procedure described above.
- the vein diameter at the selected site for implantation was measured and recorded prior to implantation and was in the range of 3-7 mm.
- the present catheter was advanced over the same wire and easily navigated through the narrow opening into the mammary vein.
- the flexible distal portion of present catheter showed superior maneuverability when compared to the off-the-shelf catheter and did not require a larger guiding catheter to reach the Mammary vein.
- the stent delivered by the present catheter and the stent delivered by the off-the-shelf catheter were maintained in the animals for two weeks and then sent to histopathology.
- the new stent design showed similar histopathology results to the off the shelf stent.
