Abstract: A weeping balloon catheter includes a catheter having an elongate tubular body defining a medical device lumen and a liquid delivery lumen. A dilation balloon is disposed at a distal end of the elongate tubular body and is in fluid communication with the liquid delivery lumen. The dilation balloon includes a fluid communication channel through an outer wall of the dilation balloon. A flow restriction member is positioned along the fluid communication channel and has an open position permitting fluid communication along the fluid communication channel and a closed position blocking fluid communication along the fluid communication channel. A drug delivery path of the weeping balloon catheter is defined by the liquid delivery lumen and the dilation balloon.

Abstract: An intraluminal activation system for activating an inactive agent includes a catheter defining an inflation lumen and a medical device lumen. A longitudinal distal segment of the catheter defines a transparent treatment region. An inflation balloon is disposed at the distal end of the catheter and over at least a portion of the transparent treatment region. An elongate energy transmission wire is configured to transmit activation energy from a proximal end thereof to a distal end thereof. The activation system has a configuration in which the balloon is expanded, the energy transmission wire is received within the medical device lumen such that the distal end of the energy transmission wire is within the transparent treatment region, and activation energy is emitted from the energy transmission wire, through the transparent treatment region, through the balloon, and toward the inactive agent.

Abstract: A weeping balloon catheter includes a catheter having an elongate tubular body defining an inflation lumen and a combination lumen that terminates at an open distal end of the elongate tubular body. A dilation balloon is disposed at a distal end of the elongate tubular body and is in fluid communication with the inflation lumen. A drug delivery balloon is disposed at least partially over the dilation balloon and includes at least one drug release opening through an outer wall of the drug delivery balloon. The drug delivery balloon is in fluid communication with the combination lumen through a sidewall opening of the elongate tubular body.
