  • US Patent:
    6290698, Sep 18, 2001
  • Filed:
    Feb 24, 1999
  • Appl. No.:
    9/256958
  • Inventors:
    David E. Wentzel - Issaquah WA
    Ryan Kaveckis - Seattle WA
  • Assignee:
    SciMed Life Systems, Inc. - Maple Grove MN
  • International Classification:
    A61B 1818
  • US Classification:
    606 34
  • Abstract:
    Methods and devices for performing percutaneous myocardial revascularization without disrupting the blood pumping activity of the heart. A percutaneous myocardial revascularization system including an active electrode disposed at the end of a catheter and a radio frequency generator coupled to the active electrode for delivering radio frequency energy thereto. Radio frequency energy is selectively applied to the active electrode when the active electrode is properly positioned and when the heart is not in a vulnerable stage of the cardiac rhythm.
  • Rf Ablation And Ultrasound Catheter For Crossing Chronic Total Occlusions

    view source
  • US Patent:
    6394956, May 28, 2002
  • Filed:
    Feb 29, 2000
  • Appl. No.:
    09/514970
  • Inventors:
    Chandru V. Chandrasekaran - Mercer Island WA
    Zihong Guo - Bellevue WA
    Anthony J. Pantages - Los Altos CA
    Donald Masters - Sunnyvale CA
    Ryan Kaveckis - Seattle WA
  • Assignee:
    Scimed Life Systems, Inc. - Maple Grove MN
  • International Classification:
    A61B 800
  • US Classification:
    600439, 600466, 607122
  • Abstract:
    A combination catheter includes an ultrasound transducer and RF ablation electrode. The ultrasound transducer transmits ultrasound signals into and receives echo signals from a vessel. The echo signals are processed and used to produce an image of the tissue surrounding the catheter. A driveshaft rotates the ultrasound transducer to obtain a 360Â view of the vessel wall. At the distal end of the driveshaft is an electrode. An RF generator is electrically coupled to the driveshaft to deliver RF energy to the electrode at the distal end of the driveshaft to ablate occluding material in the vessel. The electrode may have a variety of tip shapes including concave, roughened, or expandable configurations, depending on the size of the vessel and composition of the occluding material to be ablated. Alternatively, the RF ablation energy may be delivered to a guidewire that is used to route the ultrasound catheter through a patients vasculature. Finally, a steerable catheter can be used to further position the ultrasound catheter and ablation electrode in the vessel.

  • Filed:
    Apr 6, 2000
  • Appl. No.:
    09/544348
  • Inventors:

  • Assignee:
    SciMed Life Systems, Inc. - Maple Grove MN
  • International Classification:
    A61B 1814
  • US Classification:
    606 45, 606 47, 606 48, 606170, 606186
  • Abstract:
    An intravascular device and methods for forming multiple percutaneous myocardial revascularization (PMR) holes in a heart chamber wall simultaneously. One device includes a basket formed of flexible arms carrying cutting probes over their length. The basket arms are outwardly arcuately biased so as to assume an outwardly bowed, arcuate shape when unconstrained. The device includes an inner shaft distally secured to a proximal portion of the basket and slidably disposed within an outer shaft. The inner shaft and collapsed basket can be retracted within the outer shaft, delivered intravascularly to the left ventricle, and distally advanced, forcing the basket to assume the bowed shape. Radio frequency current supplied to the electrical cutting probes burn holes into the ventricle wall and myocardium. One embodiment has high pressure fluid jet cutting means. Another embodiment uses a basket as an anchor to position a steerable cutting probe.

  • International Classification:
    A61B 18/14
  • US Classification:
    606 41
  • Abstract:
    Systems and methods for transeptal cardiac procedures are disclosed. A method for treating a patient in accordance with a particular embodiment includes positioning a tissue penetrating guidewire adjacent to a cardiac septum, directing pulses of energy to the guidewire, and advancing the guidewire into and through the septum by moving the guidewire in a distal direction in a series of discrete steps. Individual steps can be of a predetermined distance measured outside the patient's body. The method can further include passing a catheter over the guidewire after the guidewire has passed through the septum.

The flexible segment is elongated along an elongation axis. A penetrating member is positioned at the distal portion and includes at least one blade segment having a tapered outer peripheral surface and an adjacent generally sharp edge. The blade segment extends to a distal end of the penetrating member to form a generally blunt tip. In operation, the guidewire can be connected to an electrical current source to deliver high frequency current to the penetrating member.
