US Patent:
8057430, Nov 15, 2011
Filed:
Feb 20, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/389393
Inventors:
Adam D. Grovender - Brooklyn Park MN, US
Benjamin Gundale - Plymouth MN, US
Thomas Knowles - Hermantown MN, US
Roger W. McGowan - Otsego MN, US
Todd Rowe - Excelsior MN, US
Charles Rundquist - White Bear Lake MN, US
Chuanjing Xu - Chaska MN, US
Assignee:
Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc. - Maple Grove MN
International Classification:
A61M 37/00
US Classification:
60410304, 604 9601, 604534, 604523, 604524, 604525
Abstract:
An elongate shaft of a medical catheter including a thermoset polymeric tubular member including a skived distal portion. The skived distal portion includes a distally extending trough having a convex surface and a concave surface. A thermoplastic tubular sleeve may be positioned over at least a portion of the skived distal portion of the thermoset polymeric tubular member. In some instances, the thermoplastic tubular sleeve includes a crescent-shaped tubular portion defining a crescent-shaped lumen. The trough of the skived distal portion may extend through the crescent-shaped lumen. The thermoplastic tubular sleeve is thermally bonded to the inner and outer tubular members of a distal section of the elongate shaft at a guidewire port joint.

B23P 11/00
US Classification:
606192, 29428, 156 60, 156 84
Abstract:
Balloon catheter and methods for making and using balloon catheters are disclosed. An example balloon catheter may include a proximal shaft. A midshaft may be attached to the proximal shaft. The midshaft may have an outer wall. A distal shaft may be attached to the midshaft. A balloon may be coupled to the distal shaft. An inflation lumen may be defined that extends from the proximal shaft, through the midshaft, and into the distal shaft. The inflation lumen may be in fluid communication with the balloon. A support member may be attached to the outer wall of the midshaft.

International Classification:
A61M 25/01
A61M 25/00
US Classification:
604528, 156294
Abstract:
Medical devices and methods for making and using medical devices are disclosed. An example medical device may include a guide extension catheter. The guide extension catheter may include a push member having a proximal portion with a proximal stiffness, a distal portion with a distal stiffness different from the proximal stiffness, and a transition portion disposed between the proximal portion and the distal portion. The transition portion may provide a smooth transition between the proximal stiffness and the distal stiffness. The push member may have a first outer diameter. A distal tubular member may be attached to the push member. The distal tubular member may have a second outer diameter larger than the first outer diameter.

International Classification:
A61B 17/34
A61F 2/24
Abstract:
An introducer sheath may include a tubular member comprising an inner layer and an outer layer coaxially disposed about a central longitudinal axis of the introducer sheath, the tubular member being configured to shift between an unexpanded configuration to an expanded configuration. The inner layer may be circumferentially discontinuous along at least a portion of its length. At least a first portion of the inner layer may be configured to move circumferentially relative to the outer layer when shifting between the unexpanded and expanded configurations.
