Estimating the term…
The invention relates to an infusion catheter device. This catheter device 10 has an elongate, substantially tubular shape defining a longitudinal axis, a distal end (D) and a proximal end (P), configured to be introduced into a conduit (50) having an inner wall (54) and an outer wall (56) and comprising at least one partial or total obstruction (60) or occlusion to be treated, said device comprising, at its distal end (D), one or more infusion orifices (16, 18, 20, 22) for an infusion liquid (LI), and, upstream from the one or more infusion orifices, at the proximal side (P) of the infusion catheter (10), at least one obturating element (70) for temporary obturating, configured to treat said obstruction (60) or occlusion and to perform the infusion of the infusion liquid (LI) downstream from the obturating element (70) and in the obturating position. This device is suitable in particular for cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology.

An infusion catheter device having an elongate, substantially tubular shape defining a longitudinal axis, an outer wall and an inner wall and defining a distal end and a proximal end, configured to be introduced into a conduit having an inner wall and an outer wall and comprising at least one partial or total obstruction or occlusion to be treated, said device comprising, at its distal end, on said outer surface, one or more infusion orifices or an infusion liquid, and, upstream from the one or more infusion orifices, at the proximal side of the infusion catheter, on said catheter outer wall, at least one obturating element having a rest non obturating position and a working obturating position for temporary obturating said conduit, configured to treat said obstruction or occlusion and to perform the infusion of the infusion liquid downstream from the obturating element in the obturating position.
An infusion catheter device having a distal end and a proximal end also comprising an outer wall and an inner wall, and configured to be introduced into a conduit having an inner wall and an outer wall and comprising in the conduit at least one partial or total obstruction or occlusion to be treated, said catheter device having, at its distal end, on said catheter outer wall, one or more infusion orifices for an infusion liquid, and, upstream from the one or more infusion orifices, at the proximal side of the infusion catheter on said outer surface, at least one obturating element having a rest non-obturating position and a working obturating position for temporary obturating said conduit, said catheter device being configured to treat said obstruction or occlusion and to perform the infusion of the infusion liquid downstream from the obturating element and in the obturating position,
