Problems solved by technology

[0030] However, since the outer diameter of the front end of the balloon catheter is extremely small, only about 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm, when the injection needle is inserted into the guide wire lumen through the opening of the front end, the operation is troublesome, and the front end is easy to bend, Or deformed into a trumpet shape, or have problems such as damage
In this way, it is not easy to guide the balloon to the lesion during surgery

Abstract

The present invention is a balloon catheter used primarily in treatment and surgery for the purpose of dilating lesion sites such as strictures or blockages in passages in the human body. The balloon catheter of the present invention has a structure wherein a guide wire passing tubular member is deployed passing through the interior of the expansion body, and the outer surface of the tubular member and the expansion body are concentrically fused near the distal end of the catheter. This is a balloon catheter that is characterized by the fact that the Shore hardness of the material configuring the outermost surface of the tubular member is smaller than the Shore hardness of the material configuring the expansion body. It is therefore possible to flexibly adjust the tip portion formed by securing the expansion body and the guide wire passing tubular member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to balloon catheters. The balloon catheter is used to expand the treatment or operation of the stenosis or occlusion of the passage in the body. Specifically, the balloon catheter is used in angioplasty such as peripheral angioplasty, coronary angioplasty, and valvuloplasty (PTA: Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty, PTCA: Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty) used balloon catheter. Background technique [0002] Balloon catheters are mainly used for the treatment of narrowed or occluded internal passages to form internal passages. Generally, a balloon catheter has a structure in which a balloon is provided at the front end of a tubular catheter shaft having several lumens, and the balloon communicates with the expansion lumen for supplying pressure fluid. mouth. In the usual state, the balloon is folded over the catheter shaft. The PTCA operation using this balloon catheter is performed in the following orde...
