Catheters including a rugged, reusable proximal body and a disposable distal body attached by a releasable connection are provided. The reusable proximal body is constructed from resterilizable materials such as glass, metal alloys and engineering plastics. The disposable distal body, designed for one-time use, is made from reliable but inexpensive materials. The catheters may be dilatation catheters and may be manufactured in any configuration, including rapid exchange, balloon-on-a-wire, and over-the-wire designs with single or multiple lumens. The modular construction of the catheter and releasable connection provides for rapid and easy changes in the configuration and balloon size depending on the needs of the medical procedure.
L'invention concerne des cathéters présentant un corps proximal rugueux réutilisable et un corps distal jetable fixé par un raccord amovible. Le corps proximal réutilisable est fabriqué dans des matériaux restérilisables tels que le verre, les alliages métalliques et les plastiques industriels. Le corps distal jetable, conçu pour un usage unique, est en matériaux fiables mais peu coûteux. Les cathéters selon l'invention peuvent être des cathéters à dilatation et peuvent être utilisés quelle que soit leur configuration, à échange rapide, à ballonnet sur un fil, et sur fil, avec une ou plusieurs lumières. La construction modulaire du cathéter et du raccord amovible permettent des changements de configuration et de taille de ballonnet rapides et faciles en fonction des besoins de la procédure médicale.
