Title:
接合された中心支柱を備えた偏向可能なカテーテルおよびその製造方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5666112
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A catheter (100) for diagnosing or treating the vessels found within a body or body space includes a center strut (80) that is bonded, preferably thermally, along its longitudinal axis with the thermoplastic tubular member within which it is housed. The tubular member preferably has three layers: an inner layer (62), a braided layer (64) and an outer layer (66). The composite catheter is made using a process in which two half-cylinder shaped mandrels are placed on each side of the center strut while the strut is heated in order to cause the thermal bonding. The bonded center strut provides in-plane deflection and improved transfer of torque to the tip of the catheter.
