Patent number: 9702067Abstract: A manufacturing method of a heart correction net is provided. The method includes: a first step of taking cross-sectional images of a heart in a layer direction, in which an apex and a base of the heart are connected; a second step of extracting outlines of the heart from the cross-sectional images; a third step of defining dividing points with respect to a three-dimensional shape reconstructed based on the outlines, the dividing points being defined on the outlines in a circumferential direction of the heart; a fourth step of dividing a contour of the heart in three-dimensions into divided regions based on the plurality of the dividing points, and creating development data, in which the each of the divided regions is developed on a two-dimensional plane, while an approximate shape of each of the divided regions is maintained; a fifth step of creating paper-pattern data based on the development data; and a sixth step of knitting the heart correction net with a knitting machine based on the paper-pattern data.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2013Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignees: Kanazawa Medical University, Kanazawa Institute of Technology, Tokai Medical Products, Inc.Inventors: Toshiaki Akita, Masashi Yamabe, Masahiro Seto, Toru Suzuki, Naoyuki Takesue

Publication number: 20150174383Abstract: Provided is an expansive catheter balloon that has a spreadable outer diameter controllable easily in treatments for a calcific aortic stenosis, rheumatic and congenital aortic stenosis and others, and that can be effectively prevented from being freely shifted and can easily be fixed at a predetermined position. The catheter balloon includes a cylindrical balloon part that is made non-expansive or low-expansive, and a band part made of a stretchable elastic body. When a stretching force is not applied, the band part has a shorter diameter than a spread diameter of the balloon part and is wound around the center of the balloon part.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2013Publication date: June 25, 2015Applicant: TOKAI MEDICAL PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: Nobumasa Tsutsui, Yasuhiro Tsutsui, Yasuhiro Muraki
