Cardiac Anchor Structures, Methods, And Systems For Treatment Of Congestive Heart Failure And Other Conditions
US Patent:
8425402, Apr 23, 2013
Filed:
Jul 21, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/506661

Assignee:
BioVentrix, Inc. - San Ramon CA
International Classification:
A61F 2/00
US Classification:
600 37
Abstract:
Medical devices, systems, and methods reduce the distance between two points in tissue, often for treatment of congestive heart failure and often in a minimally invasive manner. An anchor is inserted along an insertion path through a first wall of the heart. An arm of the anchor is deployed and rotationally positioned according to a desired alignment. Application of tension to the anchor may draw the first and second walls of the heart into contact along a desired contour so as to effect a desired change in the geometry of the heart. Additional anchors may be inserted and aligned with the first anchor to close off a portion of a ventricle such that the ventricle is geometrically remodeled and disease progression is reversed, halted, and/or slowed.

Assignee:

International Classification:
A61B 17/00
US Classification:
606213
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein include devices, systems, and methods for reducing the distance between two locations in tissue. In one embodiment, an anchor may reside within the right ventricle in engagement with the septum. A tension member may extend from that anchor through the septum and an exterior wall of the left ventricle to a second anchor disposed along a surface of the heart. Perforating the exterior wall and the septum from an epicardial approach can provide control over the reshaping of the ventricular chamber. Guiding deployment of the implant from along the epicardial access path and another access path into and through the right ventricle provides control over the movement of the anchor within the ventricle. The joined epicardial pathway and right atrial pathway allows the tension member to be advanced into the heart through the right atrium and pulled into engagement along the epicardial access path.

International Classification:
A61N 1/362
US Classification:
600 16
Abstract:
Devices, systems, and methods for treating a heart of a patient may make use of one or more implant structures which limit a size of a chamber of the heart, such as by deploying a tensile member to bring a wall of the heart toward (optionally into contact with) a septum of the heart.

International Classification:
A61M 1/10
US Classification:
623003100, 600037000
Abstract:
A device for use in reconstructing the left ventricle of the heart from a diseased state to an appropriate reconstructed state is disclosed. The device includes a sizer which has a flat first surface and an apex. The apex is connected to a generally cylindrical central section, and said central section is connected to the first surface. The central section and the first surface of the sizer are configured so that when the first surface is located abutting the base of the left ventricle the central section is located at the location of the interior of the appropriate reconstructed left ventricle.

International Classification:

US Classification:
606151
Abstract:
Medical devices, systems, and methods reduce the distance between two locations in tissue, often for treatment of congestive heart failure. In one embodiment an anchor of an implant system may reside within the right ventricle in engagement with the ventricular septum. A tension member may extend from that anchor through the septum and an exterior wall of the left ventricle to a second anchor disposed along an epicardial surface. Deployment of the anchor within the right ventricle may be performed by inserting a guidewire through the septal wall into the right ventricle. The anchor may be inserted into the right ventricle over the guidewire and through a lumen of a catheter. An anchor force may be applied within a desired range to secure the anchors about the septum and epicardial surface. The anchor force may inhibit migration of the anchors relative to the septum and epicardial surface.
