ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a guide catheter comprising an elongate tubular body having a proximal end and a distal end, and at least one central lumen extending axially therethrough. At least one torque control wire extends axially therethrough. In one embodiment, an actuator is connected to the torque control wire. Torquing the actuator results in steering or aiming the guide catheter. In another embodiment, a deflection wire extends through the catheter body. Manipulation of a control on the deflection wire deflects a distal portion of the deflection wire.
