Abstract
A delivery sheath can comprise an elongate tubular member and an anchor on a distal portion of the elongate tubular member, the anchor being configured to engage with the coronary sinus ostium, or both the coronary sinus ostium and a portion of the coronary sinus adjacent to the ostium, so as to provide stable transcatheter access into the coronary sinus. The anchor can be configured to permit blood flow through the ostium while in engagement with the ostium.
