Abstract
A deflectable catheter is disclosed that includes a proximal handle, an elongated catheter shaft extending distally from the proximal handle and including a deflectable distal end portion, a drive mechanism associated with the proximal handle for deflecting the distal end portion of the catheter shaft between a first position where the distal end portion of the catheter shaft is aligned with an axis of the catheter shaft and a second position where the distal end portion of the catheter shaft is deflected angularly away from the axis of the catheter shaft, and indicator means associated with the drive mechanism for providing a visual indication of the position of the drive mechanism, which corresponds to a degree of curved deflection of the deflectable distal end portion of the catheter shaft.
