Patent number: 11904104Abstract: An intravascular heart pump assembly can include a rotor with at least one impeller blade, and a cannula. The present application describes various cannulas that can be manufactured from multiple layers of material to improve flexibility, manufacturability, and durability without increasing an outer diameter of the cannula. In one embodiment, the cannula includes an inflow section having a sheet formed of a shape memory material embedded within a polymer and having at least one lateral hole or aperture in the inflow section. The at least one lateral hole is defined by a first hole in the sheet and a second hole in the outer polymer layer of the cannula. The first hole and the second hole overlap so that blood can enter the cannula through the holes.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Abiomed, Inc.Inventor: Emilia Jahangir

Publication number: 20230363932Abstract: A device and method are provided for minimizing and/or preventing limb ischemia, such as when a medical device inserted into a patient's vasculature occludes the vessel. The device may include a tubular member and a first anchor configured to hold a position of the tubular member relative to a vessel. The first anchor is configured to appose an internal wall of the vessel. A second anchor may cooperate with the first anchor to hold the position of the tubular member relative to the vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Korkuch, Glen Fantuzzi, Charles DeLorenzo, Emilia Jahangir, Matthew D'Agostino, Robert Swierczek, Alex McCall

Publication number: 20230233802Abstract: An access device may be provided that includes a hub configured to improve the flow of blood within a lumen, in order to prevent, e.g., thrombus formation, while also avoiding hemolysis. The hub may have a removably attachable second arm, protrusions/depressions with the lumens of the hub or system, and/or plugs or plug analogs may be used to prevent flow from entering certain regions of the lumens within the hub. These hubs may be used, e.g., as part of an access device, which may have a modular configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2023Publication date: July 27, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Adam Finck, Emilia Jahangir, Charles Anthony DeLorenzo, Glen Fantuzzi, Zhenghog Tao, Jiafeng Zhang, Leo Tse, Ryan Orizondo

Publication number: 20230226335Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to an access device that includes a cannula with a joint lumen therethrough, and a hub coupled to a proximal end of the cannula. The hub includes at least two arms. The first arm may have a first lumen and a first hemostatic valve, the first lumen operably connected to the joint lumen, where the first lumen and the first hemostatic valve are configured for passage of a medical device, and the second arm may be coupled to the first arm and have a second lumen, the second lumen operable connected to the joint lumen, the second arm configured to be operably coupled to an external medical device, such as an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Adam Finck, Emilia Jahangir, Charles Anthony DeLorenzo, Glen Fantuzzi, Brian Chouinard

Publication number: 20230226315Abstract: A vascular access system comprising a sheath, a slitted sleeve, and a sealing portion of the slitted sleeve. The slitted sleeve comprises a tubular sleeve body having a longitudinal slit along its length, wherein the slitted sleeve is adapted to receive a first portion of a medical device therein. The longitudinal slit closes, but does not seal, after the first portion of the medical device is inserted therein. The sealing portion of the slitted sleeve is configured to fill a gap and form a seal between an inner surface of the sheath and a portion of the first portion of the medical device disposed in the sheath when the sheath is inserted in the blood vessel and the slitted sleeve is inserted into the sheath lumen. A vascular access device accessory and a method for inserting it into a sheath are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Emilia Jahangir, Geoffrey Christanday, Zachary Nickerson, Brian Chouinard, David Schoenberg

Publication number: 20230138203Abstract: A cable that includes a first tubular body defining a first lumen therethrough, a tubular purge body disposed within the first lumen and extending along at least a portion of a length of the first lumen, the tubular purge body defining a purge lumen arranged to transfer a fluid therethrough, and at least one tubular electrical wire body disposed within the first lumen, each tubular electrical wire body defining an electrical wire lumen therethrough for receiving one or more electrical wires. The cable may also include one or more overmolds and one or more cases. The cable may be operably connected between a handle for a medical device and a controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Theodore Bazdanes, Robert Schaefer, Vincent Roy, Emilia Jahangir

Publication number: 20230051950Abstract: Systems and methods for providing hemodynamic support to a patient with an intravascular blood pump are disclosed. In some implementations, the blood pump includes a motor and an improved motor cable for delivering electrical power to the motor. The motor includes a stator with one or more coils. The motor cable includes one or more electrical conduits. The motor cable also includes a tail portion and a head portion. In some implementations, the head portion may have an O-shape or a C-shape. The motor cable may reduce the complexity of assembling the blood pump. For example, the motor cable may reduce the risk of shorting the one or more coils and/or the one or more electrical conduits.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventors: Emilia Jahangir, Qingchao Kong, Martin Kortyka

Publication number: 20220273936Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein relating to an intracardiac blood pump system comprising a pump, an elongate multi-lumen catheter, a compartment connected to the catheter, a first lumen, a conduit and a filter disposed within the conduit. At least one electronic element is located within the compartment. The conduit extends through an interface between the compartment and the catheter. The conduit is configured to allow gas to penetrate from a first end of the conduit through the first opening of the compartment to a second end of the conduit. The second end of the conduit is in fluid communication with a central lumen of the elongate multi-lumen catheter. The filter is configured to prevent egress of liquid from the multi-lumen catheter into the compartment after allowing flow of gas from the first end of the conduit through the second end of the conduit and into the multi-lumen catheter.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2022Publication date: September 1, 2022Applicant: ABIOMED, Inc.Inventor: Emilia Jahangir
