Catheter hub
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A catheter hub and handle assembly, comprising:
- a distal hub member coupled to a flexible outer catheter member adapted for intravascular delivery of fluids and a proximal hub member coupled to a flexible inner catheter member adapted for intravascular delivery of fluids, the flexible inner catheter member being disposed within the flexible outer catheter member;
a distal handle member adapted to detachably couple to the distal hub member;
a proximal handle member adapted to detachably couple to the proximal hub member and having a receiving recess in a distal section of the proximal handle member, the proximal handle member further comprised of a plurality of unenclosed channels formed on a surface of the proximal handle member adapted to accommodate a plurality of tubes;
the plurality of tubes configured to be in fluid communication with the flexible inner catheter; and
an elongate handle member proximally extending from the distal handle member and passing into the receiving recess and movably coupled to the proximal handle member such that the distal handle member is capable of longitudinal translation relative to and independent of the proximal handle member along a longitudinal axis of the elongate member.

Abstract
A catheter hub includes a distal assembly including a distal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an outer catheter and a proximal assembly including a proximal hub member adapted to be fixedly attached to an inner catheter disposed through the outer catheter. An elongate member connects the proximal and distal assemblies such that the proximal and distal assemblies can translate longitudinally relative to one another.
