  • Title: Initial experience with an intracoronary flow support device providing localized drug infusion: the Scimed Dispatch catheter.
    Author: Groh WC, Kurnik PB, Matthai WH, Untereker WJ.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1995 Sep; 36(1):67-73. PubMed ID: 7489597.
    Abstract:
    Two cases are presented illustrating the use of a new intracoronary infusion catheter providing flow support using a unique spiral coil design. Good clinical outcomes were obtained employing 4-hr inflations with localized infusion of urokinase at the site of dissection and extensive clot formation, respectively. This low-profile catheter-mounted device may provide an alternative to stent placement in cases of acute dissection complicated by thrombus formation.
