  • Patent number: 11234705
    Abstract: An implant (500) comprises an elastic deformation portion (51) and a connection portion (52) connected with the proximal end (511) of the elastic deformation portion (51), wherein the elastic deformation portion (51) is covered by an elastic outer layer (55); the proximal end of the connection portion (52) is surrounded by a tightening ring (58); and the proximal end of the elastic outer layer (55) is covered by the tightening ring (58). Since the proximal end of the elastic outer layer (55) of the implant (500) is surrounded by a tightening ring (58), the elastic outer layer (55) is closely attached on the connecting portion (52) of the implant (500), such that the elastic outer layer (55) can be prevented from being rolled over from the surface of the implant (500) when the implant (500) is implanted, thereby improving safety of lung volume reduction surgery.

  • Patent number: 10813646
    Abstract: A left atrial appendage occluder includes a sealing plate, a fixing plate, and a connection member connecting the sealing plate and the fixing plate. The connection member is a silk woven structure. A radial deformability of the sealing plate is greater than a radial deformability of the fixing plate, and/or an axial deformability of the sealing plate is greater than an axial deformability of the fixing plate. In the left atrial appendage occluder, the fixing plate and the sealing plate are connected via the connection member of the silk woven structure, such that a distance between the fixing plate and the sealing plate and an angle formed thereby are both adjustable to adapt to a left atrial appendage having a large bending angle or requiring the fixing plate to remain at an increased distance to the sealing plate, thereby reducing the risk of failed occlusion.
