    Abstract: An intrathecal catheter for delivering fluid to, or withdrawing fluid from, the cerebrospinal fluid compartment of a patient, includes a proximal end and a distal portion. The distal portion has an outer diameter of about 1 mm or less, a bending stiffness of about 0.002 pounds per square inch or less, and a distal end. A delivery region is located between the proximal end and the distal end, and a lumen extends from the proximal end to the delivery region. The catheter may further include a coiled structure region to prevent dislodgement of the catheter from a tissue in which the coiled structure is implanted, for example the cisterna magna. The catheter may also include tines to anchor portions of the catheter, for example to a portion of the spinal canal.

    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to extra, intra, and transvascular medical lead placement techniques for arranging medical leads and electrical stimulation and/or sensing electrodes proximate nerve tissue within a patient. It discloses an implantable medical lead system configured to deliver electrical stimulation from within a lumen of a blood vessel within a patient to nerve tissue located adjacent to and outside of the blood vessel, the system comprising: a medical lead arranged within a lumen of the blood vessel; an electrode connected toward a distal end of the lead adjacent the nerve tissue; and an active fixation member connected toward a distal end of the lead adjacent the nerve tissue and configured to anchor the lead to a wall of the blood vessel lumen.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for transvenously accessing the pericardial space via the vascular system and atrial wall, particularly through the superior vena cava and right atrial wall, to deliver treatment in the pericardial space are disclosed. A steerable instrument is advanced transvenously into the right atrium of the heart, and a distal segment is deflected into the right atrial appendage. A fixation catheter is advanced employing the steerable instrument to affix a distal fixation mechanism to the atrial wall. A distal segment of an elongated medical device, e.g., a therapeutic catheter or an electrical medical lead, is advanced through the fixation catheter lumen, through the atrial wall, and into the pericardial space. The steerable guide catheter is removed, and the elongated medical device is coupled to an implantable medical device subcutaneously implanted in the thoracic region. The fixation catheter may be left in place.
