ABSTRACT:
A retrograde perfusion system has a catheter and a driver to inject retroperfusate into the coronary sinus. The catheter has a balloon which is inflated and deflated to first occlude and then drain the coronary sinus. During occlusion, retroperfusate is injected under pressure by the driver which also operates the balloon all in accordance with a preselected program.
