Abstract:
The present disclosure teaches a novel endovascular medical device, employing a unique shape that allows the device to use the lesser (inferior) curve of aortic arch as a fulcrum of support for a guide catheter, for subsequent prevention of recoil and displacement thereof, while delivering additional segments, catheters or devices into distal branches of the great vessels. Said shape may be formed by active or passive bending or a combination thereof.

Claim (Index 11):
An endovascular medical device using a vascular arch as a fulcrum for securement, comprising:\n (h) a single elongated tube shaped for using said vascular arch as a fulcrum for securement, comprising: (i) a first segment of at least 20 cm in length and an internal diameter of from 0.01 Fr to 30 Fr,\n wherein said first segment has a first end comprising an external termination device; \n (j) a second end terminating in a first bend,\n wherein said first bend comprises an obtuse angle and is connected to a second segment of said tube; \n (k) said second segment of at least 3 cm in length and no more than 35 cm in length and an internal diameter of from 0.01 Fr to 30 Fr, (l) wherein said second segment has a first end terminating in said first bend, and (m) a second end terminating in a second bend; (n) wherein said second bend is 90 degrees plus or minus 60 degrees and connected to a third segment of said tube, (o) wherein said first bend and said second bend are oriented with respect to each other to allow said second segment to rest on an anatomical fulcrum; (p) said third segment of at least 0.5 cm in length and an internal diameter of from 0.01 Fr to 30 Fr, (q) wherein said third segment has a first end terminating in said second bend and connected to said second segment of said tube, and a second end terminating in a third bend, (r) wherein said third bend is connected to a fourth segment of said tube; (s) said fourth segment terminating in a distal end hole.
