A splittable occlusion balloon sheath includes a splittable sheath onto which an occlusion balloon has been secured near the distal end of the splittable sheath. A splittable hemostasis valve or a partitioned hemostasis valve system may also be secured within or to the splittable occlusion balloon sheath. This splittable occlusion balloon sheath is utilized to introduce a medical device, such as electrode leads, into the coronary sinus of the human heart. A dilator may also be used with the splittable occlusion balloon sheath for introduction of the medical devices. The splittable occlusion balloon sheath and/or the dilator may be precurved with a particular shape to assist in the introduction of the splittable occlusion balloon sheath and/or dilator into the coronary sinus. Also disclosed is a process of use of the splittable occlusion balloon system within the coronary sinus.

La présente invention concerne une gaine divisible à ballonnet d'occlusion comprenant une gaine divisible sur la partie distale de laquelle se trouve fixé un ballonnet gonflable. On peut aussi fixer à l'intérieur ou à la gaine divisible un système de valve hémostatique divisible ou répartie. Cette gaine divisible à ballonnet d'occlusion est utilisée aux fins d'introduction d'un dispositif médical, tel que des conducteurs d'électrodes, dans le sinus coronaire du coeur humain. Un dilatateur peut être utilisé avec la gaine divisible à ballonnet d'occlusion afin d'introduire des dispositifs médicaux. La gaine divisible et/ou le dilatateur peuvent posséder une forme particulière incurvée permettant de faciliter leur introduction dans le sinus coronaire. L'invention concerne aussi un procédé d'utilisation de la gaine divisible à ballonnet d'occlusion à l'intérieur du sinus coronaire.
