[0003] The present invention relates generally to methods of treating heart valve regurgitation and, more particularly, to septal transseptal systems and methods of using target capture catheters and septal transseptal catheters therein. Background Art
[0004] In cerclage for the treatment of valvular insufficiency, the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) needs to be accurately located. However, it is impossible to accurately locate the RVOT in fluoroscopic view during the procedure. Secondly, even if the RVOT is accurately found, it is necessary to stabilize the catheter at the RVOT and maintain its position without movement throughout the process of cardiac contraction. Finally, since some patients do not have a septal vein, it is necessary to accurately puncture directly from the coronary sinus through the IVS. In addition, since it is sometimes difficult to access the septal vein with a guide wire, a method and system are needed to puncture directly from the coronary sinus through the IVS to access the RVOT without using the septal vein as a pathway. Summary of the invention
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, the puncture catheter includes a first lumen for inserting a guide wire therein. A coil component is disposed at a distal portion of the puncture catheter. A distal end of the pull wire is connected to a distal portion of the coil component. A proximal end of the pull wire extends to a distal portion of the puncture catheter. The pull wire is configured to bend the distal portion of the puncture catheter inwardly to have an angled configuration.
[0006] According to one aspect of the present invention, a capture catheter includes a first lumen for inserting a first guide wire therein and a second lumen for inserting a second guide wire therein. The distal end of the second guide wire has a snare, wherein a portion of the distal end has a deflectable end.
[0007] According to one aspect of the present invention, a cerclage septum crossing system includes a puncture catheter and a capture catheter. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
