11/16/06 - 20060258978 - Steerable and shapable catheter employing fluid force
A catheter employing fluid force to steer and/or shape the catheter. In one particular implementation, the catheter includes at least one actuating lumen operably associated with the shaft of the catheter. The at least one actuating lumen is in fluid communication with a valve or other fluid control means at ...

10/05/06 - 20060224110 - Methods for minimally invasive vascular access
The present methods provide access to high flow vessels without causing severe trauma for the patient. At the same time, the methods maximize the size of a vascular instrument that can be deployed at the target location. The methods involve tunneling through the patient's tissue to create an access path ...

08/03/06 - 20060173407 - Tubing assembly and signal generator placement control device and method for use with catheter guidance systems
A tubing assembly having a signal generator placement control device for use in conjunction with electronic catheter guidance systems. The control device facilitates control of the position the guidance systems' signal generator relative to the end of the tubing assembly. The tubing assembly includes a tubular insulator coupled to one ...

06/01/06 - 20060116634 - System and method for controlling movement of a surgical tool
A system whereby a magnetic tip attached to a surgical tool is detected, displayed and influenced positionally so as to allow diagnostic and therapeutic procedures to be performed rapidly, accurately, simply, and intuitively is described. The tools that can be so equipped include catheters, guidewires, and secondary tools such as ...

06/01/06 - 20060116633 - System and method for a magnetic catheter tip
A system whereby a magnetic tip attached to a surgical tool is detected, displayed and influenced positionally so as to allow diagnostic and therapeutic procedures to be performed rapidly, accurately, simply, and intuitively is described. The tools that can be so equipped include catheters, guidewires, and secondary tools such as ...

04/20/06 - 20060084911 - Driveable catheter systems and methods
The system (2) includes a catheter drive unit (22) and a catheter (24) extending therefrom movably mounted to a catheter drive sled (26). The catheter drive unit rotates and translates the catheter core (34) within the catheter sheath (36). The sled has a serrated, conical drive unit interface (82), with ...

02/16/06 - 20060036213 - Navigation of remotely actuable medical device using control variable and length
A method of navigating a medical device includes determining the location of a medical device at a point in an operating region in a subject's body, the medical device being responsive to at least one control variable to assume a desired configuration includes storing information representative of the at least ...

02/02/06 - 20060025719 - Navigation of remotely actuable medical device using control variable and length
A method of navigating a medical device includes determining the location of a medical device at a point in an operating region in a subject's body, the medical device being responsive to at least one control variable to assume a desired configuration includes storing information representative of the at least ...

01/12/06 - 20060009735 - Navigation of remotely actuable medical device using control variable and length
A method of navigating a medical device includes determining the location of a medical device at a point in an operating region in a subject's body, the medical device being responsive to at least one control variable to assume a desired configuration includes storing information representative of the at least ...

08/11/05 - 20050177101 - Method and apparatus for guide catheter positioning
The present disclosure describes a method and apparatus for guide catheterization. In one embodiment, a guiding catheter system includes a flexible shaft having a distal end shaped for accessing a target vessel. A handle assembly is movably coupled to the flexible shaft. The flexible shaft is selectably movable between a ...

06/02/05 - 20050119614 - Irrigation and aspiration device
An elongate tubular body is disclosed, such as for use in medical applications. The body comprises a spring coil having at least one central lumen extending axially therethrough, for receiving medical implements, fiber optics, suction or transmission of fluids such as for irrigation or drug delivery. An elastomeric outer layer ...
