Abstract

A catheter system for locking a catheter to an implantable pump and for effectively flushing a catheter after implantation within a body. A locking component comprises an extension boot and catheter lock that together fluidly connect the catheter to the pump in a secure, safe and effective manner. A catheter component comprises a design having kink-resistant walls and a unique tip. A flushing component comprises a hub and stylet combination characterized by a hydrophilic coating on the stylet and a flush through hub to allow flushing of the stylet while inside the catheter.

Claims

[Received by the International Bureau on 12 December 2003 (12.12.03): Claims 22-26 are renumbered as 27-32 (2pages)] and
25. The connection device according to claim 19, wherein the locking device further comprises a fifth diameter portion adjacent the fourth diameter portion, wherein the diameter of the fifth diameter portion is less than the diameter of the fourth diameter portion. 26. A locking device for securing a catheter to a stem of an extension device, wherein the stem comprises a base portion and a tip portion, the base portion comprising a body portion and an engaging portion and the tip portion comprising a barbed end, comprising: a first diameter portion that is approximately equivalent to the diameter of said barbed end; a second diameter portion adjacent the first diameter portion tliat is approximately equivalent to the diameter of said tip portion; a third diameter portion adjacent the second diameter portion that is approximately equivalent to the diameter of said body portion; a fourth diameter portion adjacent the third diameter portion that is approximately equivalent to the largest diameter of the engaging portion; and a fifth diameter portion adjacent the fourth diameter portion having a diameter less than the diameter of the fourth diameter portion. 27. A coupling device for attachment of an implantable port or pump to a catheter, comprising: an arm portion having a proximal end that is fixedly attached to said port or pump and a distal end, said arm portion comprising a flexible material and shaped substantially similar to an outer contour of said implantable port or pump, said arm portion being biased to a resting position in close proximity to said port or pump, wherein said arm portion is movable to a connecting position away from said port or pump, and wherein said arm portion retracts to said resting position upon release from said connecting position; and a stem positioned at a distal end of said arm portion.
28. The coupling device according to claim 27, wherein said stem comprises a rear portion, a base portion and a tip portion, wherein said rear portion is substantially covered by said arm portion.
29. The coupling device according to claim 28, further comprising a sleeve attached to said stem, covering said rear portion.
30. The coupling device according to claim 29, further comprising a collar positioned around said sleeve, said collar securing said sleeve to said stem.
31. The coupling device according to claim 30, wherein said collar is positioned between said base portion and a barbed end of said rear portion. 32. The coupling device according to claim 29, wherein said arm portion and said sleeve are comprised of silicone.
