Abstract: The application relates to an assembly for the transvascular stimulation of part of the autonomic nervous system of a human body, in particular for transvascular renal nerve stimulation or transvascular stimulation of the carotid body. The application essentially consists of an assembly for unipolar transvascular stimulation from inside an artery, which enables nerve stimulation of the region(s) of the autonomic nervous system around the artery, it being possible for this stimulation to be either rapid or for mapping purposes.

Abstract: The application includes a coronary diagnostic assembly, the wire guide of which serves both to measure transstenotic pressures for a fractional flow reserve (FFR), by means of the pressure sensor integrated into the wire guide, and to perform cardiac pacing during said FFR measurement.

Abstract: The present application relates to an assembly for replacing a heart valve or coronary angioplasty assembly, including an insertion sheath (13) of an introducer (1) or a delivery catheter (1?), which is smaller in size than an introducer, intended for being inserted into an artery of a human body.

Abstract: The present application relates to an assembly for replacing a heart valve or coronary angioplasty assembly, including an insertion sheath (13) of an introducer (1) or a delivery catheter (1?), which is smaller in size than an introducer, intended for being inserted into an artery of a human body. The application involves integrating the metal substrate of an electrode of the cardiac stimulator directly into the sheath for insertion into the artery of a patient.

Abstract: An assembly for placement of a cardiac, aortic or arterial implant. The assembly includes an insertion sheath of an introducer or of a delivery catheter, which is of a size smaller than that of an introducer, intended to be introduced into an artery of a human body. The metal support of an electrode of the external cardiac stimulator being integrated into the insertion sheath of a peripheral venous or arterial accessory catheter, or a sleeve around the accessory catheter, which is introduced into the peripheral vein or artery of a patient. The sheath of the accessory catheter or the sleeve is therefore directly in contact with a peripheral vein or artery of the patient.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly for replacing a heart valve or to a coronary angioplasty assembly, comprising an introduction sheath (13) for an introducer (1) or for a delivery catheter (1?), which is smaller compared to an introducer, intended to be introduced into an artery of a human body. The invention basically comprises: either integrating the metal support of an electrode of the cardiac stimulator into a part to be fitted around the introduction sheath that is introduced into the artery of a patient or into a guide wire that becomes a bipolar electrode support; or connecting the cathode of an external cardiac stimulator to the guide wire of an artificial valve and the anode to a transcutaneous electrode in contact with the skin of the patient.
