Abstract

A vascular occlusion catheter for partial occlusion or full occlusion includes a proximal outer shaft, a distal outer shaft, and an occlusion balloon therebetween. The proximal shaft has first and second internal lumens, the first internal lumen being in fluid communication with the balloon. The distal shaft has a distal internal lumen. A hypotube extends through the first internal lumen, through the balloon and into communication with the distal internal lumen. A first window is formed in the proximal shaft and a proximal sensor is positioned within the second internal lumen at the window. A second window is formed in the distal shaft and a distal sensor is positioned within the distal internal lumen at the window. A display hub is positioned along the proximal shaft and electrically connected with the sensors The uninflated vascular occlusion catheter has a greatest outer diameter of seven French or less.
