  • Steerable guiding sheath with ring electrodes and related method of construction
    Patent number: 12485250
    Abstract: A guiding sheath has a braided layer for improved deflection characteristics and ring electrodes for electrical sensing, mapping and visualization, wherein lead wires for the ring electrodes are passed through lumened tubing position under the braided layer in a proximal portion of the guiding sheath shaft and above the braided layer in a distal portion of the guiding sheath shaft. Moreover, the hemostatic valve includes an improved friction ring with air vents to reduce the risk of air being introduced into the valve.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 23, 2022
    Date of Patent: December 2, 2025
    Assignee: Biosense Webster (Israel) Ltd.
    Inventors: Raymond Yue-Sing Tang, Brian Raze, Mark Griffin, Eric Gratz, Cortney Young, Eric E. Bielefeld
