CA 2761750

An interventional system that utilizes a carotid chemoreceptor(s) and optionally baroreceptor(s) for inducing vasodilatation in blood vessels of the brain is provided for treating ischemic conditions of the CNS, such as ischemic stroke and cerebral vasospasm. The system includes an electrical signal generator and an endovascular module with electrode units for transiently being disposed in the internal and external carotid arteries, adjacent a carotid body.

L'invention porte sur un système d'intervention qui utilise un ou plusieurs chimiorécepteurs carotidiens et, facultativement, un ou plusieurs barorécepteurs, pour induire une vasodilatation dans les vaisseaux sanguins du cerveau, lequel système est destiné à traiter des troubles ischémiques du système nerveux central tels qu'un accident ischémique cérébral et un vasospasme cérébral. Le système comprend un générateur de signal électrique et un module endovasculaire avec des unités d'électrode destinées à être disposées de façon transitoire dans les artères carotidiennes interne et externe, adjacents à un corps carotidien.
