Abstract

A large diameter, flexible, kink-resistant, delivery catheter or sheath (30) for percutaneous delivery of a contained and implantable medical device in the vasculature of a patient. The delivery catheter or sheath includes a reinforcement such as a flat wire coil (23) with uniform spacing between the turns, which is compression fitted about an inner, lubricous PTFE tube (32).
The delivery catheter or sheath further includes an outer tube (31) of a heat formable polyamide material which is heat formed and compressed through the spaces between the turns of the wire coil to mechanically connect to a roughened outer surface (36) of the inner tube. A polymeric radiopaque marker tube (40) may be positioned at the distal end of the coil and between the inner and outer tubes for radiographic visualization. A side port (38) may also be positioned thereat for the infusion of contrast media.
