  • Pacing catheter with expandable distal end
    Patent number: 9037235
    Abstract: Cardioprotective pacing is applied to prevent and/or reduce cardiac injury associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and revascularization procedure. Pacing pulses are generated from a pacemaker and delivered through one or more pacing electrodes incorporated onto one or more percutaneous transluminal vascular intervention (PTVI) devices during the revascularization procedure. In one embodiment, a PTVI device includes an expandable distal end to provide a stable electrical contact between a pacing electrode and the vascular wall of a blood vessel when the distal end is placed in the blood vessel.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 15, 2009
    Date of Patent: May 19, 2015
    Assignee: Cardiac Pacemakers, Inc.

  • Pacing catheter with stent electrode
    Patent number: 8639357
    Abstract: Cardioprotective pacing is applied to prevent and/or reduce cardiac injury associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and revascularization procedure. Pacing pulses are generated from a pacemaker and delivered through one or more pacing electrodes incorporated onto one or more percutaneous transluminal vascular intervention (PTVI) devices during the revascularization procedure. In one embodiment, at least one pacing electrode is constructed as, or incorporated onto, a stent at a distal end portion of a stent catheter.

  • VASCULAR INTERVENTION CATHETERS WITH PACING ELECTRODES
    Publication number: 20090318943
    Abstract: Cardioprotective pacing is applied to prevent and/or reduce cardiac injury associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and revascularization procedure. Pacing pulses are generated from a pacemaker and delivered through pacing electrodes incorporated onto percutaneous transluminal vascular intervention (PTVI) devices during the revascularization procedure. Examples of the PTVI devices include a guide catheter, a guide wire, and an angioplasty catheter such as a balloon catheter used in the revascularization procedure. The pacing electrodes are incorporated onto such PTVI devices in various ways.
