Abstract:
A catheter system includes an elongate catheter having a lumen extending at least partially therethrough, and a leading catheter end segment, a guidewire positionable within the lumen of the catheter, and fastening structure supported adjacent the leading catheter end segment. The guidewire and the catheter are adapted for relative movement. The fastening structure is dimensioned to selectively engage the guidewire to secure the guidewire with respect to the leading catheter end segment such that movement of the guidewire causes deflection of the leading end segment with respect to the longitudinal axis.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 12 , wherein the elongate catheter comprises an inner wall positioned between the second lumen and the third lumen, wherein the fastening structure comprises a drive element positioned within the third lumen and configured to cause deflection of the inner wall such that the inner wall engages the guidewire to secure the guidewire with respect to the elongate catheter when the drive element is moved from a first longitudinal position within the third lumen to a second longitudinal position within the third lumen, and wherein securing the guidewire with the fastening structure comprises moving the fastening structure from the first longitudinal position to the second longitudinal position.
