Abstract (en)
[origin: WO03002030A1] A catheter 100 for delivery or retrieval of an embolic protection filter 101 has a distal pod 102 to house the filter 101. The filter 101 is deployed by means of an inflation balloon or sac 103 and the catheter has a proximal stop 104 for the sac. A proximal catheter shaft 106 has an inflation lumen for inflating the sac 103 from a delivery retracted configuration to a longitudinally extended configuration to deploy the filter 101. A transition mid section shaft 109 extends proximally from the pod 102 and defines a rapid exchange exit port 105 for a guidewire 107.
