DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Glossary
[0135] The term “ablation” as used herein, refers to a procedure that uses radiofrequency energy (e.g., microwave heat) to destroy a small area of heart tissue that is causing rapid and irregular heartbeats. Destroying this tissue restores the heart's regular rhythm. The procedure is also called radiofrequency ablation.
[0136] The terms “acute angle” and “acute angulation” are used interchangeably herein to refer to a sharp, obstructive or abnormal angle or bend (e.g., less than 90 degrees) in an organ, artery, vessel, etc.
Anatomical Terms:
[0137] When referring to animals that typically have one end with a head and mouth, with the opposite end often having the anus and tail, the head end is referred to as the cranial end, while the tail end is referred to as the caudal end. Within the head itself, rostral refers to the direction toward the end of the nose, and caudal is used to refer to the tail direction. The surface or side of an animal's body that is normally oriented upwards, away from the pull of gravity, is the dorsal side; the opposite side, typically the one closest to the ground when walking on all legs, swimming or flying, is the ventral side. On the limbs or other appendages, a point closer to the main body is “proximal”; a point farther away is “distal”. Three basic reference planes are used in zoological anatomy. A “sagittal” plane divides the body into left and right portions. The “midsagittal” plane is in the midline, i.e. it would pass through midline structures such as the spine, and all other sagittal planes are parallel to it. A “coronal” plane divides the body into dorsal and ventral portions. A “transverse” plane divides the body into cranial and caudal portions.
[0138] When referring to humans, the body and its parts are always described using the assumption that the body is standing upright. Portions of the body which are closer to the head end are “superior” (corresponding to cranial in animals), while those farther away are “inferior” (corresponding to caudal in animals). Objects near the front of the body are referred to as “anterior” (corresponding to ventral in animals); those near the rear of the body are referred to as “posterior” (corresponding to dorsal in animals). A transverse, axial, or horizontal plane is an X-Y plane, parallel to the ground, which separates the superior/head from the inferior/feet. A coronal or frontal plane is an Y-Z plane, perpendicular to the ground, which separates the anterior from the posterior. A sagittal plane is an X-Z plane, perpendicular to the ground and to the coronal plane, which separates left from right. The midsagittal plane is the specific sagittal plane that is exactly in the middle of the body.
[0139] Structures near the midline are called medial and those near the sides of animals are called lateral. Therefore, medial structures are closer to the midsagittal plane, lateral structures are further from the midsagittal plane. Structures in the midline of the body are median. For example, the tip of a human subject's nose is in the median line.
[0140] Ipsilateral means on the same side, contralateral means on the other side and bilateral means on both sides. Structures that are close to the center of the body are proximal or central, while ones more distant are distal or peripheral. For example, the hands are at the distal end of the arms, while the shoulders are at the proximal ends.
[0141] The terms “anomaly”, “variation”, “abnormality” and “aberration” are used interchangeably herein to refer to a deviation from what is standard, normal or expected. For example, “bovine arch variation” is an anatomical deviation from the most common aortic arch branching pattern in humans. By way of additional example, an anomaly can occur in a blood vessel having tortuosity.
[0142] The term “aneurysm”, as used herein, refers to a localized widening (dilatation) of an artery, a vein, or the heart. At the point of an aneurysm, there is typically a bulge, where the wall of the blood vessel or organ is weakened and may rupture.
[0143] Blood flow in most aneurysms is regular and predictable primarily according to the geometric relationship between the aneurysm and its parent artery. As blood flows within the parent artery with an aneurysm, divergence of blood flow, as occurs at the inlet of the aneurysm, leads to dynamic disturbances, producing increased lateral pressure and retrograde vortices that are easily converted to turbulence. Blood flow proceeds from the parent vessel into the aneurysm at the distal or downstream extent of the aneurysm neck (i.e., the transition from the sac to the parent artery), circulates around the periphery along the aneurysm wall from the neck to the top of the fundus (i.e., aneurysm sac) (downstream to upstream), returning in a type of “isotropic shower” along the aneurysm wall toward the neck region, and exits the closest extent of the aneurysm neck into the parent vessel (See, e.g., Strother C. M. Neuroradiology 1994; 36: 530-536; Moulder P. V. Physiology and biomechanics of aneurysms. In: Kerstein M D, Moulder P V, Webb W R, eds. Aneurysms. Baltimore, Md.: Williams & Wilkins; 1983:20).
[0144] As flow persists, areas of stagnation or vortices develop within a central zone of the aneurysm. These rotating vortices, formed at the entrance to the aneurysm at each systole (i.e., ventricle contraction) and then circulated around the aneurysm, are caused by the slipstreams or regions of recirculating flow rolling upon themselves when they enter the aneurysm at its downstream wall during systole. The stagnant vortex zone occurs in the center and at the fundus or upper portion of the aneurysm and becomes more pronounced in larger aneurysms. It is this stagnant zone that is believed to promote the formation of thrombi or blood clots, particularly in giant aneurysms (See, e.g., Gobin Y. P. et al. Neuroradiology 1994; 36: 530-536; Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0145] The term “abdominal aortic aneurysm” or “AAA”, as used herein refers to an aortic diameter at least one and one-half times the normal diameter at the level of the renal arteries, which is approximately 2.0 cm. Generally, a segment of abdominal aorta with a diameter of greater than 3.0 cm is considered an aortic aneurysm. Aortic aneurysms constitute the 14th leading cause of death in the United States. Risk factors associated with AAA include age, sex, ethnicity, smoking, hypertension and atherosclerosis, among others (See, e.g., Aggarwal S. et al. Exp Clin Cardiol. 2011; 16(1): 11-15; Ouriel K. et al. J Vasc Surg. 1992; 15: 12-18; Silverberg E. et al. C A Cancer J Clin. 1990; 40: 9-26).
[0146] The term “arteriovenous malformation” (“AVM”), as used herein, refers to a tangle of abnormal and poorly formed blood vessels (e.g., arteries and veins) which have a higher than normal rate of bleeding compared to normal blood vessels.
[0147] AVMs are congenital vascular lesions that occur as a result of capillary mal-development between the arterial and venous systems. Approximately 0.14% of the United States population has an intracranial AVM that poses a significant risk and represents a major life threat, particularly to persons under the age of 50 years. The vessels constituting the AVM are weak and enlarged and serve as direct shunts for blood flow between the high-pressure arterial system and the low-pressure venous system, corresponding to a large pressure gradient and small vascular resistance. The abnormal low-resistance, high-flow shunting of blood within the brain AVM without an intervening capillary bed causes the fragile dilated vessels in the nidus (i.e., tangle of blood vessels) to become structurally abnormal and fatigued, to further enlarge, and to rupture (See, e.g., Wilkins R. H. Neurosurgery 1985; 16:421-430; Graves V. B. et al. Invest Radiol. 1990; 25: 952-960; Hademenos G. J. et al., Neurosurgery 1996; 38: 1005-1015).
[0148] The abnormal microvessels of an AVM serve as passive conduits for blood flow from the arterial circulation directly to the venous circulation, by-passing their normal physiological function of brain tissue perfusion. The hemodynamic consequences of an AVM occur as a result of two interdependent circulatory mechanisms involved in the shunting of blood between artery and vein (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1996; 27: 1072-1083).
[0149] In the normal cerebral circulation, blood flows under a high cerebrovascular resistance and high cerebral perfusion pressure. However, the presence of a brain AVM in the normal circulation introduces a second abnormal circuit of cerebral blood flow where the blood flow is continuously shunted under a high perfusion pressure through the AVM, possessing a low cerebrovascular resistance and low venous pressure. The clinical consequence of the abnormal shunt is a significant increase in blood returning to the heart (approximately 4 to 5 times the original amount, depending on the diameter and size of the shunt), resulting in a dangerous overload of the heart and cardiac failure. Volumetric blood flow through an AVM ranges from 200 mL/min to 800 mL/min and increases according to nidus size (See, e.g., Yamada S. Neurol Res. 1993; 15: 379-383).
[0150] The abnormal shunting of blood flow by brain AVMs rapidly removes or “steals” blood from the normal cerebral circulation and substantially reduces the volume of blood reaching the surrounding normal brain tissue. This phenomenon, known as cerebrovascular steal, depends on the size of the AVM and is the most plausible explanation for the development of progressive neurological deficits. Cerebrovascular steal could translate into additional neurological complications developed as a result of cerebral ischemia or stroke in neuronal territories adjacent to an AVM (See, e.g., Manchola I. F. et al. Neurosurgery 1993; 33: 556-562; Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0151] The term “atherectomy”, as used herein, refers to a minimally invasive endovascular surgery technique for removing atherosclerosis from blood vessels within the body by cutting plaque from the walls of a blood vessel.
[0152] The term “atherosclerosis” (also known as “hardening of the arteries”), as used herein, refers to a pathological process in which calcified lipid or fatty deposits from flowing blood accumulate along the innermost intimal layer of a vessel wall. Atherosclerotic plaques are found almost exclusively at the outer wall of one or both daughter vessels at major arterial bifurcations, including the carotid. Atherosclerosis and the development of arterial plaques are the products of a host of independent biochemical processes including the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins, formation of fatty streaks, and the proliferation of smooth muscle cells. As the plaques form, the walls become thick, fibrotic, and calcified. As a result, the lumen narrows, reducing the flow of blood to the tissues supplied by the artery (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077; Hademenos G. J. Am Scientist 1997; 85: 226-235; Woolf N., Davies M. J. Sci Am Science & Medicine 1994; 1: 38-47).
[0153] Atherosclerotic deposits promote the development of blood clots or the process of thrombosis, due in part, to flow obstruction and to high shear stresses exerted on the vessel wall by the blood. High wall shear stress mechanically damages the inner wall of the artery, initiating a lesion. Low wall shear stress encourages the deposition of particles on the artery wall, promoting the accumulation of plaque. Turbulence has also been implicated in atherosclerotic disease because it can increase the kinetic energy deposited in the vessel walls and because it can lead to areas of stasis, or stagnant blood flow, that promote clotting. The presence of atherosclerotic lesions introduces an irregular vessel surface, resulting in turbulent blood flow, thus causing the dislodgment of plaques of varying size into the bloodstream. Subsequently, the dislodged plaque lodges into a vessel of smaller size, preventing further passage of blood flow (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0154] The term “atresia”, as used herein, refers to the absence or abnormal narrowing of an opening or passage in the body. For example, aortic atresia refers to a rare congenital anomaly in which the aortic orifice is absent or closed.
[0155] The term “atrial fibrillation”, as used herein, refers to an irregular and often fast heart rate which may cause symptoms such as heart palpitations, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Atrial fibrillation weakens the cardiac wall and introduces abnormalities in the physiological function of the heartbeat, which ultimately result in reduced systemic pressure, conditions of ischemia and stroke.
[0156] The term “brachiocephalic trunk”, also known as “innominate artery”, as used herein, refers to a major vessel that supplies the head, neck and right arm. It is the first of three main branches of the aortic arch, which originates from the upward convexity. After arising in the midline, it courses upwards to the right, crossing the trachea, and bifurcates posteriorly to the right sternoclavicular joint into the right subclavian and right common carotid arteries. It typically measures 4-5 cm in length with a diameter of approximately 12 mm.
[0157] The term “brain aneurysm”, as used herein, refers to a cerebrovascular disease that manifests as a pouching or ballooning of the vessel wall (i.e., vascular dilation). The vascular dilatation develops at a diseased site along the arterial wall into a distended sac of stressed and thinned arterial tissue. The fully developed cerebral aneurysm typically ranges in size from a few millimeters to 15 mm but can attain sizes greater than 2.5 cm. If left untreated, the aneurysm may continue to expand until it ruptures, causing hemorrhage, severe neurological complications and deficits, and possibly death (Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077; Hademenos G. J. Phys Today 1995; 48: 24-30).
[0158] The two main treatment options for a patient suffering from a brain aneurysm are (i) surgical clipping; and (ii) endovascular coiling. Surgical clipping is an intracranial procedure in which a small metallic clip is placed along the neck of the aneurysm. The clip prevents blood from entering into the aneurysm sac so that it no longer poses a risk for bleeding. The clip remains in place, causing the aneurysm to shrink and permanently scar. Endovascular coiling is a minimally invasive technique in which a catheter is inserted into the femoral artery and navigated through the blood vessels to the vessels of the brain and into the aneurysm. Coils are then packed into the aneurysm to the point where it arises from the blood vessel, thus preventing blood flow from entering the aneurysm. Additional devices, such as a stent or balloon, for example, may be needed to keep the coils in place.
[0159] The term “branch”, as used herein, refers to something that extends from or enters into a main body or source; a division or offshoot from a main stem (e.g., blood vessels); one of the primary divisions of a blood vessel.
[0160] The term “coarctation” or “coarctation of the aorta”, as used herein, refers to a congenital narrowing of a short section of the aorta.
[0161] The terms “compound curves” and “multi-curves” are used interchangeably herein to refer to multiple deflection points along the length of a catheter. By way of example, two deflection points allow a catheter to be deflected into an “S” shape or the shape of a shepherd's hook.
[0162] The term “conduit”, as used herein, refers to a tube through which something passes.
[0163] The term “curve diameter”, as used herein, refers to the furthest distance a catheter moves from its straight axis as it is being deflected. The curve diameter does not always remain constant during deflection and does not necessarily indicate the location of the catheter tip.
[0164] The term “dilator”, as used herein, refers to a long, tapered device adapted to stretch an opening in skin and/or to stretch a blood vessel to allow for insertion of a larger device, e.g., a sheath, catheter, etc.
[0165] The term “distal”, as used herein, refers to the state of being situated away from the point of attachment or origin.
[0166] The term “deflection”, as used herein, refers to movement of a catheter tip independent of the rest of the catheter.
[0167] The term “dyscrasia”, as used herein, refers to an abnormal or disordered state of the body or a bodily part. The term “blood dyscrasia”, as used herein, refers to an abnormally of blood cells or of clotting elements.
[0168] The term “embolus” (plural “emboli”), as used herein, refers to a gaseous or particulate matter that acts as a traveling “clot”. A common example of an embolus is a platelet aggregate dislodged from an atherosclerotic lesion. The dislodged platelet aggregate is transported by the bloodstream through the cerebrovasculature until it reaches a vessel too small for further propagation. The clot remains there, clogging the vessel and preventing blood flow from entering the distal vasculature. Emboli can originate from distant sources such as the heart, lungs, and peripheral circulation, which could eventually travel within the cerebral blood vessels, obstructing flow and causing stroke. Other sources of emboli include atrial fibrillation and valvular disease. The severity of stroke depends on the size of the embolus and the location of the obstruction. The bigger the embolus and the larger the vessel obstruction, the larger the territory of brain at risk (Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0169] The term “endoluminal”, as used herein, refers to the state of being within a tubular organ or structure (e.g., blood vessel, duct, gastrointestinal tract, etc.) or within a lumen. The term “lumen”, as used herein, refers to the inner open space or cavity of a tubular structure.
[0170] The term “French” (abbreviated “Fr” or “F” or “Fg” or “Ga” or “CH” or “Ch”), as used herein, is a system used to measure the diameter of a catheter. The French unit of measure is equivalent to three times the diameter in millimeters (mm). For example, 9 Fr is equivalent to a diameter of 3 mm.
[0171] The term “hemorrhage”, as used herein, refers to the escape of blood from a ruptured blood vessel.
[0172] Blood vessels are typically structurally adept to withstand the dynamic quantities required to maintain circulatory function. For reasons that are not entirely understood, the vessel wall can become fatigued and abnormally weak and possibly rupture. With vessel rupture, hemorrhage occurs with blood seeping into the surrounding brain tissue. As the blood accumulates within the brain, the displaced volume causes the blood, now thrombosed, to ultimately compress the surrounding vessels. The compression of vessels translates into a reduced vessel diameter and a corresponding reduction in flow to surrounding tissue, thereby enlarging the insult (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0173] In the brain, hemorrhage may occur at the brain surface (extraparenchymal), for example, from the rupture of congenital aneurysms at the circle of Willis, causing subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Hemorrhage also may be intraparenchymal, for example, from rupture of vessels damaged by long-standing hypertension, and may cause a blood clot (intracerebral hematoma) within the cerebral hemispheres, in the brain stem, or in the cerebellum. Hemorrhage may be accompanied by ischemia or infarction. The mass effect of an intracerebral hematoma may compromise the blood supply of adjacent brain tissue; or SAH may cause reactive vasospasm of cerebral surface vessels, leading to further ischemic brain damage. Infarcted tissue may also become secondarily hemorrhagic. Among the vascular lesions that can lead to hemorrhagic strokes are aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0174] The term “hypoplasia”, as used herein, refers to a condition of arrested development in which an organ or other part of the body remains below the normal size or in an immature state, usually due to a deficiency in the number of cells; atrophy due to destruction of some of the elements and not merely to their general reduction in size.
[0175] The term “introducer”, as used herein, refers to an instrument such as a tube or a sheath that is placed within a vein or artery for introduction of a flexible device, for example, a catheter, needle, wire, etc.
[0176] The terms “ischemic” and “ischemia”, as used herein, refer to deficient supply of blood to a body part generally due to obstruction of the inflow of arterial blood (e.g., by the narrowing of arteries, spasm or disease).
[0177] The term “kickback”, as used herein refers to the phenomenon of catheter coil prolapse (slipping forward or down) due to a counterforce against the catheter by the prolapsed coil tail. The counterforce may be due to a lack of available space to insert the last coil. This lack of space may be the result of, for example, a blood vessel variation such as a bovine arch variation, a vertebral artery variation, a thrombus, an embolus, an arteriovenous malformation and the like.
[0178] The term “myocardial infarction”, as used herein, refers to death of cells of an area of heart muscle as a result of oxygen deprivation, which in turn is caused by obstruction of the blood supply; commonly referred to as a “heart attack”. The most common cause is thrombosis of an atherosclerotic coronary artery or a spasm. Less common causes included coronary artery abnormalities and vasculitis (inflammation of blood vessels).
[0179] The term “proximal”, as used herein, refers to the state of being situated next to or nearest the point of attachment or origin.
[0180] The term “recanalization”, as used herein, refers to the process of restoring flow to or reuniting an interrupted channel of a bodily tube (e.g., a blood vessel).
[0181] The term “reperfusion”, as used herein, refers to restoration of the flow of blood to a previously ischemic organ or tissue (e.g., heart or brain).
[0182] The term “restenosis”, as used herein, refers to the recurrence of abnormal narrowing of a blood vessel (e.g., artery or vein) or valve.
[0183] The term “steerability”, as used herein, refers to an ability to turn or rotate the distal end of a catheter with like-for-like movement of the proximal section or the catheter handle.
[0184] The term “stroke” or “cerebrovascular accident”, as used herein, refers to neurological signs and symptoms, usually focal and acute, which result from diseases involving blood vessels. Strokes are either occlusive (due to closure of a blood vessel) or hemorrhagic (due to bleeding from a vessel). Although most occlusive strokes are due to atherosclerosis and thrombosis, and most hemorrhagic strokes are associated with hypertension or aneurysms, strokes of either type may occur at any age from many causes, including cardiac disease, trauma, infection, neoplasm, blood dyscrasia, vascular malformation, immunological disorder, and exogenous toxins. An ischemia stroke results from a lack of blood supply and oxygen to the brain that occurs when reduced perfusion pressure distal to an abnormal narrowing (stenosis) of a blood vessel is not compensated by autoregulatory dilation of the resistance vessels. When ischemia is sufficiently severe and prolonged, neurons and other cellular elements die. This condition is referred to as “infarction” (See, e.g., Hart R. G. et al., Stroke 1990; 21:1111-1121). Although the consequences of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are similar (i.e., vessel obstruction, resultant reduced blood flow to the brain, neurological deficits and possibly death), the biophysical and hemodynamic mechanisms behind the obstruction of blood flow are different. Biophysical mechanisms for the development of obstructions that ultimately lead to stroke can arise by six distinct processes: atherosclerosis, embolus, thrombus, reduced systemic pressure, hemorrhage, and vasospasm (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F., Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0185] The term “taper”, as used herein, refers to the reduction of thickness toward one end; the gradual diminution of width or thickness in an elongated object; i.e., to become more slender toward one end.
[0186] The term “thrombectomy”, as used herein, refers to the surgical excision of a thrombus.
[0187] The term “thrombus”, as used herein, refers to an internal physiological mechanism responsible for the clotting of blood. A thrombus is a blood clot, an aggregation of platelets and fibrin formed in response either to an atherosclerotic lesion or to vessel injury. In response to vessel or tissue injury, the blood coagulation system is activated, which initiates a cascade of processes, transforming prothrombin, ultimately resulting in a fibrin clot
[0188] (Prothrombin.fwdarw.Thrombins.fwdarw.Fibrinogen.fwdarw.Fibrin.fwdarw.Fibrin Clot) (See, e.g., Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).
[0189] Although a host of mechanisms and causes are responsible for vessel injury, vessel injury can occur as a result of forces (e.g., shear stresses) coupled with excess energy created by the turbulent flow exerted against the inner (intimal) lining of the vessel wall, particularly an atherosclerotic vessel wall (See, e.g., Fry D. L. Circ Res. 1968; 22: 165-197; Stein P. D. and Sabbah H. N. Circ Res. 1974; 35: 608-614; Mustard J. F. et al. Am J Med. 1962; 33: 621-647; Goldsmith H. L. et al. Thromb Haemost 1986; 55: 415-435).
[0190] The term “tortuosity” and other grammatical forms of the term “tortuous” is used herein to refer to a property of a tube, passage or blood vessel (e.g., an artery or a vein) being twisted, crooked or having many turns.
[0191] The term “vasospasm”, as used herein, refers to the sudden constriction of a blood vessel, reducing its diameter and flow rate. When bleeding occurs in the subarachnoid space, the arteries in the subarachnoid space can become spastic with a muscular contraction, known as cerebral vasospasm. The contraction from vasospasm can produce a focal constriction of sufficient severity to cause total occlusion. The length of time that the vessel is contracted during vasospasm varies from hours to days. However, regardless of the duration of vessel constriction, reduction of blood flow induces cerebral ischemia, thought to be reversible within the first 6 hours and irreversible thereafter. It has been shown that vasospasm is maximal between 5 and 10 days after subarachnoid hemorrhage and can occur up to 2 weeks after subarachnoid hemorrhage (See, e.g., Wilkins R. H. Contemp Neurosurg. 1988; 10:1-66; Hademenos G. J. and Massoud T. F. Stroke 1997; 28: 2067-2077).

In general, stainless steel is easier to torque and is more rigid, providing better columnar support. Nitinol is more flexible and kink resistant. Developments such as high-tensile-strength stainless steel and combinations of stainless steel with nitinol have been utilized. High-tensile-strength stainless steel provides more column strength and torquability than original stainless steel. The use of hybrid wires incorporates high-tensile stainless steel shafts with nitinol tips to impart high torquability and columnar shaft strength with kink-resistance tips.
[0265] According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a core taper. The core tapers are areas where the core of the wire changes over a set distance. There may be several tapers in a wire. Long, gradual tapers track well around bends, but do not provide as much support in short distances. Broad, gradual, or long tapers offer acute vessel access and improved tracking. Devices with abrupt or short tapers create support in shorter distances and have a greater tendency to prolapse.
[0266] According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a core grind (i.e., constant diameter).
[0267] According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a core that extends to the tip. A core that extends to the tip of the wire increases the transmission of force, is more durable and steerable, improves tactile feedback, and is used in peripheral vessels. According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a core that does not extend to the tip. A core that does not extend to the tip (i.e., shaping ribbon design) is delicate, flexible, and soft. This kind of tip is also easier to shape, can be easily prolapsed, and is less likely to inadvertently injure distal vessels.
[0268] According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a cover. Covers included, but are not limited to, a polymer or a plastic. A sleeve of polymer or plastic placed over the wire core enhances lubricity which results in less drag, enhanced lesion crossing, and smooth tracking in tortuous vessels. According to some embodiments, the wire comprises a coating. Non-limiting examples of a coating include a hydrophobic coating and a hydrophilic coating. Hydrophobic coatings reduce friction and improve device trackability by repelling water to create a smooth, “wax-like” surface, with no water actuation required. Hydrophilic coatings attract water to create a slippery, “gel-like” surface.
[0269] According to some embodiments, the wire is a guide wire.

An introducer is then placed over the guide wire, after which the wire is removed. A different sized guide wire is then put in its place. Next, a long narrow tube called a diagnostic catheter is advanced through the introducer over the guide wire, into the blood vessel. This catheter is then guided to the aorta and the guide wire is removed. Once the catheter is placed in the opening (or ostium) of one the coronary arteries, a contrast dye is injected and an x-ray is taken. If a treatable blockage is noted, the first catheter is exchanged for a guiding catheter. Once the guiding catheter is in place, a guide wire is advanced across the blockage, then a balloon catheter is advanced to the blockage site. The balloon is inflated for a few seconds to compress the blockage against the artery wall. Then the balloon is deflated.
[0296] Catheter embolization is a minimally invasive treatment that occludes or blocks one or more blood vessels or vascular channels of malformations (abnormalities). In a catheter embolization procedure, medications or synthetic materials (embolic agents) are placed through a catheter into a blood vessel to prevent blood flow to the area. Using image-guidance, a catheter is inserted through the skin to the treatment site. A contrast material is then injected through the catheter and a series of x-rays are taken to locate the exact site of bleeding or abnormality. Next, a medication or an embolic agent is injected through the catheter. Additional x-rays are taken to ensure the loss of blood flow in the target vessel or malformation. Uses of catheter embolization include, but are not limited, control or prevention of abnormal bleeding, including bleeding that results from an injury, tumor or gastrointestinal tract lesions such as an ulcer or diverticular disease; controlling bleeding into the abdomen or pelvis caused by traumatic injuries; treatment of long menstrual periods or heavy menstrual bleeding that results from fibroid tumors of the uterus; to occlude or close off vessels that are supplying blood to a tumor; to eliminate an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) or arteriovenous fistula (AVF) (abnormal connection or connections between arteries and veins); and to treat aneurysms (a bulge or sac formed in a weak artery wall) by either blocking an artery supplying the aneurysm or closing the aneurysmal sac itself.
