Patent ID: 8641666

Claim:
A catheter comprising: an elongate tubular member comprising a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen extending from the proximal end to the distal end; and an elongate cylindrical member disposed at least partially within the lumen of the elongate tubular member and having a proximal end, a distal end and a delivery assembly extending from the distal end, wherein the delivery assembly comprises a flared conical shaped member, and wherein a fluid delivery lumen within the elongate cylindrical member opens to a plurality of tubular fluid delivery channels disposed within the flared conical shaped member, wherein the tubular fluid delivery channels are embedded within a wall of the flared conical shaped member, each of the tubular fluid delivery channels terminate at a fluid exit opening, each fluid exit opening is formed in the wall of the flared conical shaped member and discharges liquid received from the fluid delivery lumen out of the fluid exit opening to deliver a bioactive agent to a patient, and each fluid exit opening faces in a distal direction away from the distal end of the elongate cylindrical member.
