Vaso-occlusive coil delivery system

Abstract

An occlusive coil delivery device includes an occlusive coil having a plurality of open pitched windings at a proximal end thereof, and a delivery wire assembly having a proximal tubular portion, a distal coil portion and a lumen, and a delivery wire adapter having a proximal end and a distal end. The delivery wire assembly having a delivery wire forming a first conductive path and extending through the lumen from a proximal end of the delivery wire assembly to a location distal of the distal coil portion, and a second conductive path formed by the proximal tubular portion and distal coil portion. The distal end of the adapter comprising a plurality of fingers configured to interface between adjacent open pitched windings of the proximal end of the occlusive coil, with the proximal end of the delivery wire adapter secured to a distal portion of the delivery wire.
