Vascular Device For Emboli, Thrombus And Foreign Body Removal And Methods Of Use

US Patent:
6544279, Apr 8, 2003
Filed:
Aug 9, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/636040
Inventors:
L. N. Hopkins - Buffalo NY
Farhad Khosravi - San Mateo CA
Amr Salahieh - Campbell CA
Jackson F. Demond - Santa Cruz CA
Jonah Lepak - Santa Cruz CA
Stephen Ramee - New Orleans LA
Jeff A. Krolik - Campbell CA
Richard Renati - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Incept, LLC - San Mateo CA
International Classification:
A61M 2900
US Classification:
606200, 606194
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are provided for use in filtering emboli from a vessel and/or performing thrombectomy and embolectomy, wherein a vascular device comprises one or more support hoops connected near a distal end of a guide wire, each support hoop having an articulation region, and a blood permeable sac affixed to the support hoop or hoops to form a mouth of the blood permeable sac. The mouth of the sac closes when the apparatus is collapsed for removal to prevent material from escaping from the sac.

Apparatus And Methods For Treating Tissue

US Patent:
6626899, Sep 30, 2003
Filed:
Jul 3, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/898726
Inventors:
Russell A. Houser - Livermore CA
Vahid Sadaat - Saratoga CA
Stephen R. Ramee - New Orleans LA
Assignee:
Nidus Medical, LLC - Saratoga CA
International Classification:
A61B 1818
US Classification:
606 14, 606 41, 606 52, 606 76, 606205, 600372, 600375, 623 126, 623 134, 623 136
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are provided for thermally and/or mechanically treating tissue, such as valvular structures, to reconfigure or shrink the tissue in a controlled manner. The apparatus comprises a catheter in communication with an end effector which induces a temperature rise in an annulus of tissue surrounding the leaflets of a valve or in the chordae tendineae sufficient to cause shrinkage, thereby causing the valves to close more tightly. Mechanical clips can also be implanted over the valve either alone or after the thermal treatment. The clips are delivered by a catheter and may be configured to traverse directly over the valve itself or to lie partially over the periphery of the valve to prevent obstruction of the valve channel. The clips can be coated with drugs or a radiopaque coating. The catheter can also incorporate sensors or energy delivery devices, e. g.

Vascular Device For Emboli And Thrombi Removal And Methods Of Use

US Patent:
7993363, Aug 9, 2011
Filed:
Nov 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/936757
Inventors:
Jackson F. Demond - Santa Cruz CA, US
Farhad Khosravi - San Mateo CA, US
Jeff A. Krolik - Campbell CA, US
Stephen Ramee - New Orleans LA, US
Richard J. Renati - San Jose CA, US

Kirk Hsueh-kai Young - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Incept, LLC - San Mateo CA
International Classification:
A61M 29/00
US Classification:
606200, 60416405
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are provided for use in filtering emboli from a vessel and/or performing thrombectomy and embolectomy, wherein a vascular device disposed on a guidewire includes a support hoop disposed from a suspension strut. Alternately, a support hoop having an articulation region may be directly connected to a region proximate the distal end of the guidewire. A blood permeable sac is affixed to the support hoop to form a mouth of the blood permeable sac. The support hoop is disposed obliquely relative to the longitudinal axis of the guidewire and is capable of being properly used in a wide range of vessel diameters. The vascular device collapses during removal to prevent material from escaping from the sac. A delivery sheath and introducer sheath for use with the vascular device of the present invention are also provided.

Apparatus And Methods For Sealing A Vascular Puncture

Apparatus And Methods For Sealing A Vascular Puncture

US Patent:
8128654, Mar 6, 2012
Filed:
Oct 30, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/929728
Inventors:
Farhad Khosravi - Los Altos Hills CA, US
Celso J. Bagaoisan - Union City CA, US
Stephen Ramee - New Orleans LA, US
Assignee:
AccessClosure, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/08
US Classification:
606213
Abstract:
An apparatus for sealing a puncture communicating with a blood vessel includes an inner member slidable within an outer member, and a balloon coupled to distal ends of the inner and outer members. A proximal end of the outer member includes a port for delivering fluid into the balloon, and a cylinder that communicates with the port. A piston coupled to the inner member is slidable and biased to move distally within the cylinder. The apparatus is introduced into the puncture until the collapsed balloon is disposed within the vessel. Fluid is introduced into the port, moving the inner member proximally to shorten the balloon as it expands. The balloon is withdrawn to seal the puncture, and a hydrogel is introduced into the puncture. Fluid is removed via the port, moving the inner member distally to extend the balloon as it collapses, and the apparatus is withdrawn.
