ABSTRACT:
The apparatus for performing diagnostic and/or therapeutical heart interventions comprises a catheter (1) which contains a guided catheter (2), a guiding catheter (3) surrounding the guided catheter and a guide wire (4) extending within a lumen (20) of the guided catheter. Means (7) are provided which permit a controlled change of position of the guide wire in a chamber of the heart. The catheter is a first catheter (1) whose guide wire is in connection with the distal end (30') of a second catheter (1') or can be connected thereto respectively. The second catheter can be positioned in the heart in such a manner that its distal end takes on a stationary position independent of the change in position of the guide wire.
