Method For Manufacturing A Balloon Encapsulated Catheter Tip

US Patent:
2011009, Apr 28, 2011
Filed:
Oct 26, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/912393
Inventors:
Gregory D. Wiita - Jupiter FL, US
Bruce E. Wiita - Jupiter FL, US
International Classification:
B65H 69/02
US Classification:
156157, 1562728
Abstract:
This invention is generally related to catheters for insertion into a body cavity, duct or vessel, and more particularly to a tip or plug for a catheter. The catheter tip is constructed and arranged to form a seal on the end portion of the catheter tube, while a sleeve secured or formed integrally to the tip cooperates with the catheter tube to form a first balloon that encapsulates the tip of the catheter and a second balloon that positions the catheter within the body cavity, duct or vessel.

Balloon Catheter

US Patent:
4351342, Sep 28, 1982
Filed:
Jun 10, 1981
Appl. No.:
6/272127
Inventors:
Bruce E. Wiita - Jupiter FL
J. Michael Teets - Palm Beach Gardens FL
International Classification:
A61M 2500
US Classification:
128349B
Abstract:
A catheter comprising an elongated tube and an inflatable balloon. The elongated tube has a wall defining a main lumen in its interior. The distal end of the tube is insertable within a body while its proximal end remains exteriorally of the body. A port extends through the tube wall to provide fluid communication between the main lumen and the exterior of the tube at the distal end of the tube. The inflatable balloon has an opening extending through its side, which opening is aligned with the port in the tube. The peripheries of the opening in the balloon and of the port in the tube are completely adhered. An inflation lumen is also provided in the tube which conducts fluid pressure to and from the interior of the balloon to inflate and deflate the balloon. This arrangement enables the inflated balloon to cushion fully the distal end of the catheter and provide a tapered lead in to the port to enhance drainage.
