Patent

CA 2431062

A balloon catheter in which its distal tip is precisely positionable in order to control movement of the catheter through tortuous vasculature and especially through the lumen of a deployed stent is disclosed. The distal tip of the catheter is rendered radiopaque, at least at its distal-most end, to enable visualization of the position of the catheter and to facilitate placing the catheter in the desired position.

Cette invention concerne un cathéter à ballonnet dont l'extrémité distale peut être positionnée avec précision, ce qui permet de commander le déplacement du cathéter dans des vaisseaux sinueux et en particulier dans la lumière d'un stent déployé. L'extrémité distale du cathéter est rendue radio-opaque, au moins dans sa partie la plus éloignée, ce qui permet de visualiser la position du cathéter et de l'amener plus facilement dans la position voulue.
