Abstract

Clot disruption and dissolution are achieved using a catheter (12) having bo th an agitator (30) and the ability to deliver a thrombolytic agent. The cathet er (12) is introduced to a target region with a blood vessel and the agitator (30) manipulated to engage and disrupt a region of clot therein. The thrombolytic agent, such as tPA, streptokinase, or urokinase, is directly released into the clot at the point where the agitator (30) is engaging the clot. In this way, the thrombolytic activity of the agent is enhanced and th e dissolution of the clot is improved.

5. Apparatus of claim 3, wherein the agitator comprises a resilient element which may be axially shortened to assume an enlarged profile having a non-linear geometry.
6. Apparatus as in claim 4 or 5, wherein the resilient element has a non-linear geometry selected from the group consisting of helical, spiral, serpentine, zig-zag, alternating helical, and random.
7. Apparatus as in claim 5, wherein the agent distributing means comprises a porous sheath disposed over the resilient element.
8. Apparatus as in claim 6, wherein the porous sheath is flexible and wherein the resilient element presses the sheath into the clot.
9. Apparatus as in claim 6, wherein the agent distributing means comprises a distribution element in the resilient element, wherein the resilient element includes means for infusing the agent disposed over its length.
10. Apparatus as in claim 9, wherein the infusing means comprises a plurality of spaced-apart ports.
11. Apparatus as in claim 9, wherein the infusing means comprises porous region(s) over the length of the resilient element.
12. Apparatus as in claim 1, wherein the thrombolytic distributing means comprises a porous sheath disposed over the mechanical agitating means.
13. Apparatus as in claim 12, wherein the porous sheath is flexible and wherein the mechanical agitating means presses the sheath into the clot.
14. Apparatus as in claim 1, further comprising means for isolating at least one location on the catheter body to reduce blood flow through a region in a blood vessel being treated.
15. Apparatus as in claim 14, wherein the isolating means isolates both a proximal end and the distal end of the region being treated.
16. Apparatus as in claim 15, wherein the isolating means comprised a pair of axially spaced-apart balloons on the catheter body.
17. Apparatus as in claims 1, 14, 15, or 16, further comprising means for aspirating disrupted clot from a region around the mechanical agitation means.
18. An apparatus for disrupting clot over a target region of a blood vessel, the apparatus comprising:
a catheter body having a proximal end and a distal end;
an agitator disposed near the distal end for mechanically agitating clot over the target region;
a port disposed near the distal end in fluid communication with an agent supply source for introducing an agent along the target region.
19. The apparatus of claim 18, further comprising an aspiration lumen having an aspiration port near the distal end for aspiration of material from the target vessel.
20. The apparatus of claim 19, further comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of a vacuum source coupled to the aspiration port and a pump disposed within the aspiration lumen.
21. The apparatus of claim 20, further comprising an aspiration catheter defining the aspiration lumen, the aspiration catheter being disposed outside the catheter body.
22. The apparatus of claim 20, wherein the catheter body contains the aspiration lumen.
23. An apparatus for disrupting clot over a region of a blood vessel, an access site being disposed along the vessel, the apparatus comprising:
an introducer sheath for providing access to the access site;
a first elongate body extending through the introducer sheath, the first body having a proximal end and a first distal end with a first agitator;
a second elongate body extending through the introducer sheath, the second body having a second distal end with a second agitator, the access site being disposed between the first and second agitators.
24. An apparatus as claimed in claim 23, wherein a first bloodflow isolator is disposed distally of the first agitator, and wherein a second bloodflow isolator is disposed distally of the second agitator so as to isolate the region of the vessel.
25. A method for disrupting clot over a predetermined luminal length within a blood vessel, said method comprising:
mechanically agitating the clot over the predetermined luminal length; and infusing an agent in a distributed pattern over the predetermined luminal length which is being mechanically agitated.
26. A method as in claim 25, wherein the predetermined luminal length is at least 5 cm.
