Patent number: 11963861Abstract: Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, positioning a distal portion of a catheter proximate to the clot material within the blood vessel. The method can further include coupling a pressure source to the catheter via a tubing subsystem including a valve or other fluid control device and, while the valve is closed, activating the pressure source to charge a vacuum. The valve can then be opened to apply the vacuum to the catheter to thereby aspirate at least a portion of the clot material from the blood vessel and into the catheter.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2023Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Inari Medical, Inc.Inventors: Brian Michael Strauss, Jacqueline Macias

Publication number: 20230241302Abstract: Disclosed herein are aspiration catheters having grooved inner surfaces for removing clot material from the vasculature of a patient, and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, an aspiration catheter can include a proximal terminus, a distal terminus, and an inner surface defining a lumen. The inner surface includes at least one groove formed therein and that extends from the distal terminus at least partially toward the proximal terminus. When clot material is aspirated through the aspiration catheter, the at least one groove can provide a leak path past the clot material to improve the ingestion of the clot material through the catheter and inhibit clogging.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Benjamin Edward Merritt, Garrett Thomas Offerman, Kali Wen-Tseng Slaughter, John Coleman Thress, Brian Michael Strauss, Donald Joseph Fuller, Jared Shimizu
