Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for delivering treatment to the renal arteries are provided. Exemplary systems include a delivery catheter having a distal bifurcation, an introducer assembly comprising an introducer sheath in operative association with a Y-hub, wherein Y-hub includes a first port for receiving the delivery catheter and a second port for receiving a second catheter, and a constraint assembly for holding the distal bifurcation of the delivery catheter in a low-profile configuration when it is advanced distally beyond the introducer sheath.
