  • Methods of use of a balloon-tip aspiration catheter for ischemic stroke interventions
    Patent number: 10485551
    Abstract: A balloon suction catheter may be used to remove clots and increase blood flow to obstructed vessels such as a cerebral artery in a stroke patient. The catheter may be used to apply suction on the clot while providing flow arrest, embolic protection, and optionally flow reversal. The same catheter may also be used to provide for a flow modulation procedure known as post-conditioning to potentially reduce any damage from the sudden reintroduction of blood flow reperfusion injury.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 13, 2017
    Date of Patent: November 26, 2019
    Assignee: Cognition Medical Corp
    Inventors: Alexis S. Turjman, Elad I. Levy, Jonah G. Bernstein
  • PERMEABLE STRUCTURAL INTERFACE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIN-WALLED BALLOON CATHETERS
    Publication number: 20190167945
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the construction of thin-walled balloon catheters where navigability, low cross-sectional profile, and low inflation and deflation times are desired. Structural reinforcement of inflation lumen utilizes a soft, flexible, permeable material to fill the fluid channel to maintain patency of the lumen.
