Initial experience with an intracoronary flow support device providing localized drug infusion : the Scimed Dispatch catheter

Two cases are presented illustrating the use of a new intracoronary infusion catheter providing flow support using a unique spiral coil design. Good clinical outcomes were obtained employing 4-hr inflations with localized infusion of urokinase at the site of dissection and extensive clot formation, respectively. This low-profile catheter-mounted device may provide an alternative to stent placement in cases of acute dissection complicated by thrombus formation.
