ABSTRACT:
A standard angioplasty Y-connector is secured to a support structure to enable a physician to manipulate the screw cap of the Y-connector and control the passage of the balloon catheter and guiding catheter with one hand. The securing means comprises a "L" shaped main body. First and second mounting members on the short end of the "L" secure the Y-connector position it above the main body. The main body is placed on the patient and the brackets elevate the screw cap above the patient and the physician operates the screw cap with his index finger and thumb. The remaining fingers are placed over the other edge of the Y-connector on the long arm to increase the stability of his grip upon the screw cap.
