A single-wire expandable cage for an embolic filtering device includes a single cage wire coupled to an elongated member, such as a guide wire, and adapted to expand from an unexpanded position to an expanded position in a patient's body vessel. The wire includes a first end and a second end which are coupled to the guide wire. A filter element is attached to the single-wire cage. The single-wire cage may be rotatably mounted to the guide wire or may be slidably disposed on the guide wire to allow the composite cage and filter element to be slid over the guide wire in an over-the-wire fashion once the guide wire is delivered to the target location in the patient's vasculature. One embodiment of the single-wire cage utilizes an offset arrangement in which the guide wire remains extended along the wall of the body vessel once the single-wire cage is deployed. Another embodiment of the device centers the guide wire within the body vessel.
What is claimed is: 1. An embolic filtering device for capturing embolic debris in a body fluid flowing within a body vessel, comprising: a guide wire having a proximal stop fitting and an intermediate stop fitting fixedly attached thereto; a support frame having a pre-deployment collapsed position
What is claimed is: 1. An embolic filtering device for capturing embolic debris in a body fluid flowing within a body vessel, comprising: a guide wire having a proximal stop fitting and an intermediate stop fitting fixedly attached thereto; a support frame having a pre-deployment collapsed position and a deployed expanded position, wherein the support frame is made from a length of a single, continuous wire having a first end slidably attached to the guide wire between the proximal stop fitting and the intermediate stop fitting and a second end slidably attached to the guide wire at a location distal to the intermediate stop fitting; and a filtering element having a proximal inlet opening and a plurality of distal outlet openings, the outlet openings allowing the body fluid to flow through the filtering element but retaining embolic debris within the filtering element, and the inlet opening being larger than the outlet openings, wherein the entire length of the support frame is attached to opening the proximal opening of the filtering element to open the filtering element when the support frame is in the deployed expanded position. 2. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the support frame forms a spiral shape when placed in the expanded position. 3. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the first and second ends of the support frame are movable along the longitudinal axis of the guide wire. 4. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the support frame is made from a self-expanding material. 5. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the first end and second end of the support frame are rotatably mounted to the guide wire. 6. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the support frame forms a substantially spiral loop when placed in the deployed expanded position and the guide wire extends substantially in the center of the formed spiral loop. 7. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the support frame forms a substantially spiral loop when placed in the deployed expanded position and the guide wire extends substantially along the periphery of the formed spiral loop. 8. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the wire forming the support frame is a wire ribbon. 9. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the wire ribbon is made from a nickel-titanium alloy. 10. The embolic filtering device of claim 8, wherein the support frame forms a spiral when placed in the deployed expanded position. 11. The embolic filtering device of claim 1, wherein the first and second ends of the support frame form hoops which extend around the guide wire. 12. The filtering device of claim 1, wherein the support frame is movable between its expanded and unexpanded positions through relative longitudinal movement between the first end and second end of the wire. 13. An embolic filtering device for capturing embolic debris in a body fluid flowing within a body vessel, comprising: a guide wire having a proximal stop fitting and an intermediate stop fitting fixedly attached thereto; a support frame having a pre-deployment collapsed position and a deployed expanded position, the support frame having a first end slidably attached to the guide wire between the proximal stop fitting and the intermediate stop fitting and a second end slidably attached to the guide wire at a location distal to the intermediate stop fitting; and a filtering element having a proximal edge forming an inlet opening and a plurality of distal outlet openings, the outlet openings allowing the body fluid to flow through the filtering element but retaining embolic debris within the filtering element, and the inlet opening being larger than the outlet openings, wherein the entire support frame is attached to the proximal edge of the filtering element. 14. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein the first and second ends of the support frame are movable along the longitudinal axis of the guide wire. 15. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein the support frame is made from a self-expanding material. 16. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein the first end and second end of the support frame are rotatably mounted to the guide wire. 17. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein the support frame forms a spiral when placed in the deployed expanded position. 18. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein the intermediate stop is located between the first end and the second end of the support frame. 19. The filtering device of claim 13, wherein the support frame is movable between its expanded and unexpanded positions through relative longitudinal movement between the first end and second end of the support frame. 20. The embolic filtering device of claim 13, wherein filtering element is attached to the support frame.
