  • Patent number: 11986232
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides apparatuses and methods for treating conditions such as chronic daily headache, cluster headache, tension headache, migraine, or acute headache of a patient. In example methods, a cryotherapy element is introduced into the nasal cavity or pterygopalatine fossa to cool or cryoablate at least one of a nasal nerve tissue or nasal blood vessel. The cryotherapy element may be introduced into the nasal cavity in a collapsed position, and prior to cooling a target treatment site may be expanded to an expanded configuration.

  • Patent number: 11977857
    Abstract: This present application describes one or more embodiments of methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and systems provide developer tools for generating and providing visualizations of data densities for various portions of a computer application. For example, the systems can determine a data density that reflects a ratio or an amount of data presented within a (portion of a) display window relative to the entire (portion of the) display window. The systems can further provide a visual representation of a data density for display on a client device, along with indications or suggestions for how to improve (e.g., reduce or increase) the data density for better comprehensibility (e.g., upon distribution of the application). In certain embodiments, the systems can generate suggestions based on an application type of a computer application in development and/or based on a function associated with a particular (portion of a) display window.

  • Publication number: 20240130734
    Abstract: The present technology includes systems and methods for invasively adjusting implantable devices for selectively controlling fluid flow between a first body region and a second body region of a patient. For example, in many of the embodiments described herein, a catheter can be used to mechanically and/or electrically engage an implanted medical device. Once the catheter engages the medical device, the catheter can (i) increase a dimension associated with the medical device, such as through mechanical expansion forces, and/or (ii) decrease a dimension associated with the medical device, such as by heating a shape memory component of the medical device above a phase transition temperature.

  • Publication number: 20240126980
    Abstract: Provided is a method for review of an XBRL document. An XBRL document is received followed by a request to create an XBRL review for the XBRL document. A selection of an XBRL fact included in the XBRL document is received and a first review status, of a plurality of review statuses, is applied to the selected XBRL fact. The selected XBRL fact is monitored to detect a change to the XBRL fact, and in response to detecting a change to the XBRL fact, the first review status of the XBRL fact is updated to a second review status of the plurality of review statuses.

  • Publication number: 20240000404
    Abstract: The present technology relates to interatrial shunting systems and methods. In some embodiments, the present technology includes a method for monitoring a shunting element implanted in a patient and having a lumen fluidly coupling cavities of the patient's heart. The method can comprise obtaining first and second radiographic images of at least two radiopaque elements associated with the lumen of the shunting element. A spatial relationship between the radiopaque elements varies according to a size of the lumen. The first radiographic image can be taken from a first viewing angle and the second radiographic image can be taken from a second viewing angle generally orthonormal to the first viewing an The method also includes determining the size of the lumen based, at least in part. on locations of the radiopaque elements in the first and second radiographic images.

  • Patent number: 11786252
    Abstract: Methods for treatment of aneurysms using a sequential manifold console to deploy multiple filling structures are provided herein. In one aspect, aneurysms are treated by simultaneously filling two double-walled filling structure using a sequential manifold console to guide a user in the steps to be followed in the procedure and to reliably achieve a consistent and durable aneurysmal treatment using a curable medium. The structures may be delivered over balloon deployment mechanisms in order to shape and open tubular lumens therethrough. Pairs of filling structures delivered to the aneurysm from different access openings of a patient can be simultaneously prepared and pressurized from a single treatment console when treating abdominal aortic aneurysms using the described systems and methods.

  • Publication number: 20230240852
    Abstract: Closure devices that selectively control blood flow between the right atrium and the left atrium of a heart of a patient. The control of blood flow can be based on detected values from a pressure sensor. The closure devices can include a body configured to engage native tissue when the device is deployed across the septal wall. In a first state at least a portion of (an inner surface of) a lumen is closed, preventing blood flow through the closure device. Ina second state, the lumen is open to enable blood flow from the left atrium to the right atrium. A closure element can be selectively adjusted to control the flow of blood through the lumen. A volume of an expandable chamber can be increased or decreased to place the closure device into the first state or the second state.
