Abstract

See full text

The thoracic catheter has an elongated, integrally formed lead designed to be pulled by the surgeon without the use of a clamp. The lead has sufficient length to allow it to be readily held within the surgeon's hand, or even wrapped around the hand. A tip at the proximal end of the lead is used to guide the lead through the chest wall. In the alternative, the tip may have a trocar that is used to make the secondary incision in the chest wall for the placement of the catheter.
