The use of telescoping guide catheters for coronary sinus cannulation and sub-selecting tributaries in left ventricular lead placement
2007
Introduction
Failure to enter the coronary sinus (CS) with a guiding catheter and entering its tributaries remains challenging in left ventricle (LV) pacing lead implants for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). A dual telescoping catheter system (8F outer/6F inner) is designed to provide the ability to adjust the catheter curve size, shape and/or reach to the patients’ anatomy avoiding the need for catheter change.
