Thorascopic Heart Valve Repair Method And Apparatus

US Patent:
2010017, Jul 8, 2010
Filed:
Feb 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/709220
Inventors:
Giovanni Speziali - Pittsburgh PA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/062
US Classification:
606144
Abstract:
An instrument for performing thorascopic repair of heart valves includes a shaft for extending through the chest cavity and into a heart chamber providing access to a valve needing repair. A movable tip on the shaft is operable to capture a valve leaflet and a needle is operable to penetrate a capture valve leaflet and draw the suture therethrough. The suture is thus fastened to the valve leaflet and the instrument is withdrawn from the heart chamber transporting the suture outside the heart chamber. The suture is anchored to the heart wall with proper tension as determined by observing valve operation with an ultrasonic imaging system.

Thorascopic Heart Valve Repair Method And Apparatus

US Patent:
8465500, Jun 18, 2013
Filed:
Jan 19, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/813695
Inventors:
Giovanni Speziali - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:
Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research - Rochester MN
International Classification:
A61B 17/04
US Classification:
606139, 606144
Abstract:
An instrument for performing thorascopic repair of heart valves includes a shaft for extending through the chest cavity and into a heart chamber providing access to a valve needing repair.

Devices And Methods For Reducing Cardiac Valve Regurgitation

US Patent:
7854762, Dec 21, 2010
Filed:
May 22, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/920670
Inventors:
Giovanni Speziali - Pittsburgh PA, US
Charles Bruce - Rochester MN, US
Assignee:
Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research - Rochester MN
International Classification:
A61F 2/24
US Classification:
623 211
Abstract:
Devices and methods that may be used to reduce valve regurgitation are disclosed by locating a body across the regurgitant valve. When the valve closes, the body obliterates/ameliorates the regurgitant orifice in the valve, thereby reducing or preventing valve regurgitation. The body may be expandable. The devices may be implantable such that they can remain in place within a subject for extended periods of time.
