Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A medical catheter device is disclosed that comprises a tubular shaft member, a soft tip member, and a wire guide lumen extending longitudinally within the tubular shaft member and the soft tip member. The wire guide lumen is offset relative to the centerline within the soft tip member. By offsetting the inner diameter of the soft tip member in such a way as to not change the outward profile of the catheter, the soft tip will have improved tracking across existing stents and eccentric lesions.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A medical catheter, comprising: a tubular shaft member having a proximal shaft end, a distal shaft end, and a shaft outer diameter enclosing a wire guide lumen, at least a distal portion of the wire guide lumen extending longitudinally within the tubular shaft member along a central longitudinal axis of the tubular shaft member; and a distal tip member having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end being continuous with the distal shaft end…
