Patent number: 11672656Abstract: A system for percutaneous delivery of a stented prosthetic heart valve. The system includes a delivery device with a self-expanding prosthetic heart valve attached thereto and a delivery sheath with an opening on a distal end thereof. The delivery sheath includes a funnel on a proximal end thereof. The delivery device is inserted into the funnel of the delivery sheath. As the delivery device is advanced into the funnel, the expanded heart valve is compressed by the shape of the funnel into a crimped arrangement. The delivery device further advances the heart valve distally within the delivery sheath past the delivery sheath opening. The delivery device is advanced relative to the delivery sheath in transitioning the heart valve from a crimped arrangement to the expanded and deployed arrangement.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2019Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Inventors: Devin Gosal, Susheel Deshmukh, Philip Haarstad, Joel Racchini, Finn Rinne, Paul Rothstein, Jeffrey Sandstrom

Publication number: 20220054138Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for trans-esophageal aortic flow control. The device comprises a controller, an esophageal tube extending from the controller, an anchor device at a distal end of the esophageal tube and configured to anchor the distal end of the device inside a patient's stomach, and an actuator positioned proximally to the anchoring device by a sufficient distance so that the actuator will be proximal to the intersection of the patient's esophagus with their diaphragm when the anchoring device is positioned inside of the patient's stomach. In this position, the anchoring device is aligned with the location at which the patient's esophagus and aorta cross that is above (or proximal to) the intersection with the patient's diaphragm, with the patient's aorta then positioned between the spine and the esophagus.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2021Publication date: February 24, 2022Inventors: Joseph Rabin, Zhongjun Wu, Philip Haarstad, David Heisserer, Steve Roller, Jesse Haworth, Kelly Jensen, Andy Black, Andy Leopold, Jahi Gist

Patent number: 10772623Abstract: A coupling system includes an applicator tool and an attachment ring mounted on the applicator tool. Clips are contained within the applicator tool and are deployed through the attachment ring in order to anchor the attachment ring to biological tissue. When deployed, tips of the clips follow a curved trajectory through an annular cuff of the attachment ring and through the underlying tissue. The tips loop back out of the tissue and to a location where they are later trapped or clamped by the attachment ring. While the tips are trapped or clamped, the applicator tool cinches the clips by pulling rear segments of the clips. Thereafter, the applicator tool disconnects from the attachment ring which remains anchored to the tissue and serves as a coupling for a cannula. The cannula can have movable lock members that secure it to the attachment ring.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2017Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: TC1 LLCInventors: Carine Hoarau, Steven H. Reichenbach, J. Donald Hill, George Hsu, Andrew R. Miller, James Badia, Nina Boiadjieva, Shuo-Hsiu Chang, Philip Haarstad, Olga M. Stanescu, Stephen Kenneth Sundquist

Publication number: 20150289877Abstract: A coupling system includes an applicator tool, an anastomotic prosthesis mounted on the applicator tool, and an engagement device. The applicator tool deploys a securement through the prosthesis and tissue which leaves the prosthesis attached to the tissue. The engagement device selectively engages the applicator tool onto the tissue, with the use of suction, in order to facilitate accurate placement of the prosthesis on the tissue and facilitate deployment of the securement into the tissue. The applicator tool and the tissue are able to move together while the engagement device prevents or inhibits relative movement between the applicator tool and the tissue. A method for securing an anastomotic prosthesis to tissue includes applying of suction to engage an applicator tool to the tissue while a securement is deployed out of the applicator tool and into the prosthesis and the tissue.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2015Publication date: October 15, 2015Inventors: Carine HOARAU, Steven H.

Patent number: 8986375Abstract: A transcatheter valve prosthesis includes an expandable tubular stent, a prosthetic valve within the stent, and an anti-paravalvular leakage component coupled to and encircling the stent which includes a plurality of self-expanding struts and an annular sealing membrane. Each strut has a first end coupled to a distal end of the stent and a second end not coupled to the stent. Each anti-paravalvular leakage component is moveable between a compressed configuration and a deployed configuration. In the compressed configuration, each strut extends distally away from the distal end of the stent. In the deployed configuration, each strut extends proximally away from the distal end of the stent. In an embodiment hereof, the deployed strut has a C-shape and is twisted such that the C-shape lies in a plane substantially along or tangential with the outer surface of the stent. In another embodiment hereof, the deployed strut is rolled-up and extends radially away from the outer surface of the stent.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2013Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: Kshitija Garde, Philip Haarstad, Igor Kovalsky, Stephen Nash, Gianfranco Pellegrini, Finn Rinne, Matthew Rust, Jeffrey Sandstrom, Padraig Savage, William Steinberg
