摘要:
Catheters for debonding fouling agents from an interior surface thereof and related methods are disclosed. According to an aspect, a catheter includes a lumen defining a flexible, interior surface that extends substantially along a length of the lumen for contacting a biological material. The catheter also includes cavities extending along the length and positioned within the lumen adjacent to the surface. The cavities each define a cavity opening. The catheter also includes an inflation hub defining hub openings connected to respective cavity openings. The inflation hub defines a pump port configured to interface with a pump. The inflation hub defines one or more fluid pathways that extend between the hub openings and the pump port for permitting flow of gas between the pump and the cavities.
