Title:
RECOIL BALANCING CATHETER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/187577
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes various catheters that address potential recoil issues. Such catheter may contain multiple lumens that allow for the discharge of infusants a various points on the catheter distal end. Further, multiple openings may be present on the distal end of the catheter. The openings can be covered with a membrane that ruptures at a designated flow pressure. The catheter tip can contain blind holes that remain covered, and are only opened to become active when required. Such catheters can allow for multiple infusant flow exits, rather than a singular steady jet exiting the distal end of the catheter.
