Zusammenfassung: | A device having multiple chambers may be configured to expand to contact a substantial section of an interior wall of a body structure or lumen in order to simultaneously exclude blood or other liquid from a target structure while providing for delivery of a therapeutic agent directly to the interior wall. The expandable device may be manufactured from a plurality of flat sheets of material heat sealed to one another to form an inflation chamber and one, two or more delivery chambers. The sheets may also be bonded to an elongate catheter body having inflation and delivery lumens. The excluding of blood flow and delivery of therapeutic agents are completed by the same device. |
