  • Catheter System and Method For Occluding A Body Vessel
    Publication number: 20110295301
    Abstract: Some embodiments of a balloon catheter device for introduction into a body vessel, in particular the coronary sinus, can include a catheter shaft which carries an inflatable balloon on its distal portion and in which a plurality of different lumens are formed. In particular embodiments, a system for treating heart tissue can include a coronary sinus occlusion catheter configured for improved deliverability to the coronary sinus and for thereafter performing intermittent occlusion of the coronary sinus.

  • Device for the intermittent occlusion of the coronary sinus
    Publication number: 20100256559
    Abstract: In a device for the intermittent occlusion of the coronary sinus, including a catheter with several lumens and an occlusion device fixed to the catheter and operable through at least one lumen of the catheter, the operating elements of the catheter cooperate with a first axial portion of the catheter for bending the same in said first portion, and with at least one further axial portion of the catheter for bending the same in said at least one further axial portion, and/or for stiffening said axial portions.
