CA 2504135

A low profile, short, tapered distal tip catheter and methods for its manufacture are provided. The catheter tip is configured to have a taper over a relatively short length resulting in a low profile that is useful when navigating the catheter tip into tight passages such as the Papilla of Vater. The configuration of the tip and process for making it can be employed in any medical catheter but are found to be most useful in a multilumen papillotome catheter used in biliary procedures.

L'invention concerne un cathéter à embout distal conique, court, à profil bas, et ses procédés de fabrication. L'embout du cathéter est conçu pour présenter une conicité sur une longueur relativement courte résultant d'un profil bas qui est utile, lors de l'acheminement de l'embout du cathéter dans des passages étroits, tels que la papille de Vater. La configuration de l'embout et son procédé de fabrication peuvent être utilisés dans n'importe quel cathéter médical, mais ils sont particulièrement utiles dans un cathéter de papillotome multilumière utilisé dans des interventions biliaires.
