Patent number: 11931041Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for treating vascular defects are disclosed herein. One aspect of the present technology, for example, includes an occlusive device comprising a mesh having a low-profile state for intravascular delivery to the aneurysm and a deployed state, the mesh comprising a first end portion, a second end portion, and a length extending between the first and second end portions, and a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and a width extending between the first and second lateral edges. The mesh may have a predetermined shape in the deployed state in which (a) the mesh is curved along its width, (b) the mesh is curved along its length, and (c) the mesh has an undulating contour across at least a portion of one or both of its length or its width. The mesh is configured to be positioned within the aneurysm in the deployed state such that the mesh extends over the neck of the aneurysm.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Gregory Hamel, Patrick Quinn, Arturo Rosqueta, Stephen Sosnowski, Christopher Andrews, Hieu Dang, Dinh Nguyen, Robert Pecor, Minh Q.

Publication number: 20230210540Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for treating vascular defects are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method of treating an aneurysm includes positioning a distal portion of an elongated member near or within an aneurysm. The method can include introducing an embolic composition into a lumen of the elongated member using an injector device coupled to a proximal portion of the elongated member. The injector device can pressurize the embolic composition to a pressure of at least 10,000 psi. The method can also include delivering the embolic composition into the aneurysm via the elongated member.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2022Publication date: July 6, 2023Inventors: Adin Douglas Martineau, Ali M. Hussain, John I. Muri, Junwei Li, Jared Akira Shimizu, Andyanhdzung Huynh, Robert A. Pecor, Aarya Cyril Mecwan

Publication number: 20230190292Abstract: Devices for treating vascular defects and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, for example, an occlusive device for treating an aneurysm includes a first mesh formed from a first tubular braid, the first mesh including a first petal-shaped region formed from a first flattened section of the first tubular braid. The first mesh can be coupled to a second mesh formed from a second tubular braid. The second mesh can include a second petal-shaped region formed from a second flattened section of the second tubular braid. When the occlusive device is deployed within the aneurysm, the first and second petal-shaped regions can extend at least partially over a neck of the aneurysm.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2022Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Animesh Choubey, Robert A.

Patent number: 11406519Abstract: An aneurysm bridging device can be placed in the neurovasculature of a patient by advancing the aneurysm bridging device in a small-diameter configuration a delivery catheter to a target region within the neurovasculature and securing the distal region of the aneurysm bridging device to the neurovasculature. While the distal region of the aneurysm bridging device is secured to the neurovasculature, the proximal region of the aneurysm bridging device can be advanced to permit the aneurysm bridging device to expand from the small-diameter configuration and to deform and twist in a central region of the aneurysm bridging device. The proximal region of the aneurysm bridging device can be secured within the neurovasculature to maintain the central region of the aneurysm bridging device in a deformed state.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2020Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: COVIDIEN LPInventors: Brian Strauss, Jeffrey Valko, Michael Henson, Robert Pecor
