Claims3
A balloon catheter system, comprising:
- an inner catheter having a lumen extending axially therethrough;
- an outer catheter outside of the inner catheter;
- the outer catheter including a proximal wherein the inner catheter and outer catheter are secured relative to one another at one more discrete connection locations, and
- outer section and a distal outer section, the proximal outer section and the distal outer section meeting at a junction, the distal outer section being more flexible than the proximal outer section;
- an inflatable member having a distal end that is secured to a section of the inner catheter extending distally beyond the outer catheter, the inflatable member also having a proximal end that is secured relative to the outer catheter;
- and
- wherein the outer catheter and the inner catheter form an inflation lumen therebetween in fluid communication with an interior of the inflatable member to allow an inflation fluid to be advanced through the inflation lumen to inflate the inflatable member.
