Intravascular Rf Occlusion Catheter

US Patent:
6120499, Sep 19, 2000
Filed:
Jan 3, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/582600
Inventors:
Duane Dickens - Fremont CA
Gene Samson - Milpitas CA
Ruey Sung - Hillsborough CA
Assignee:
Cardima, Inc. - Fremont CA
International Classification:
A61B 1736
US Classification:
606 41
Abstract:
The invention is directed to an intravascular device for occluding a patient's blood vessel by coagulating blood in a desired location within the blood vessel to form occluding thrombus therein by means of RF electrical energy which preferably has a frequency of about 0. 3 to about 1. 5 megahertz. The intravascular device is particularly useful in terminating arrhythmia in a patient's heart by occluding a coronary artery to terminate the flow of oxygenated blood to a region of the patient's heart where aberrant signals causing the arrhythmia either originate or through which they are conducted. The device may also be used to occlude other blood vessels such as in the treatment of intracranial berry aneurysms.

Sheathed Multipolar Catheter And Multipolar Guidewire For Sensing Cardiac Electrical Activity

US Patent:
5549109, Aug 27, 1996
Filed:
Dec 8, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/353529
Inventors:
Gene Samson - Milpitas CA
Gabriel B. Vegh - Alamo CA
Duane Dickens - Fremont CA
Herbert G. Rettke - Mountain View CA
Assignee:
Target Therapeutics, Inc. - Fremont CA
International Classification:
A61B 5042
US Classification:
128642
Abstract:
This invention is a medical device. It is a multipolar catheter assembly optionally in combination with a guidewire. Each of the catheter and the guidewire may be sheathed and have multiple electrodes at their distal ends. Because of their size and flexibility, the catheter and the guidewire may be used at virtually any point within the vasculature particularly, however, within the cardiac arteries or veins, perhaps in conjunction with external electrocardiogram leads, to map the body's electrical activity. When used in the heart, they may be used to determine the source of a cardiac arrythmia. The intimate presence of the guidewire or catheter body in the cardiac vasculature allows the response time to changes in cardiac electrical activity is very quick. The invention is also a method for mapping the electrical activity of the heart by use of one or more of these inventive guidewires or catheters in the cardiac arteries or veins. They may also be used to determine the local electrical activity of any site within the body, such as in the brain.

Guiding Catheter For The Coronary Sinus

US Patent:
5775327, Jul 7, 1998
Filed:
May 19, 1997

Inventors:
Yvonne Randolph - Morgan Hill CA
Duane Dickens - San Clemente CA
Assignee:
Cardima, Inc. - Fremont CA
International Classification:
A61B 504
A61M 2900
US Classification:
128642
Abstract:
A guiding catheter for delivery of intravascular devices to a patient's coronary sinus. The guiding catheter has a relatively stiff proximal section and a relatively flexible distal section, the latter being about 1 to about 6 inches in length and being configured to subselect a branch cardiac vein leading to the coronary sinus. The guiding catheter is particularly suitable for delivering an intravascular device for sensing electrical activity into a cardiac vein to detect such activity from within the blood vessel.
