  • Patent number: 10888331
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of embolic coils. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for actively releasing an embolic coil from a delivery device into a body lumen of a patient. Delivery systems of the present disclosure may allow an embolic coil to be advanced external to the distal end of a delivery catheter without being automatically released, thereby allowing the embolic coil to be repositioned prior to deployment.

  • Patent number: 9370645
    Abstract: A medical device including an outer balloon, an inner balloon, and at least one delivery unit is disclosed. The outer balloon defines a first internal cavity that remains in fluid communication with a first inflation lumen. The inner balloon is disposed within the first internal cavity, and defines a second internal cavity that is in fluid communication with a second inflation lumen. Each delivery unit includes at least one needle configured to pierce a tissue and at least one reservoir containing a material. Further, inflation of the outer balloon or the inner balloon is structured and arranged to deliver the material into the tissue through the needle lumen.

  • Publication number: 20110156306
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a medical electrical lead includes molding a lead body pre-form, stringing an electrode onto the pre-form and overmolding the pre-form with a polymer to form a lead body portion. The pre-form has a proximal end, a distal end and at least one lumen extending between the proximal and distal ends. At least one asymmetric region of the pre-form has a transverse cross-section that has a non-circular outer dimension. The overmolding causes the asymmetric region to become substantially circular.
