Patent number: 11571216Abstract: Aortic occlusion and embolic protection devices include radially expandable and collapsible proximal and distal end portions, such as annular self-expanding stents or frames, that are configured to radially expand within an aorta to secure the device within the aorta. The devices can also include a catheter extending axially between the distal end portion and the proximal end portion and a porous covering, or filter, positioned around the catheter and between the proximal end portion and the distal end portion and configured to filter emboli from blood flowing into upper-body arteries. The device can further include a one-way valve positioned at or adjacent to the distal end portion of the device and configured to restrict retrograde blood flow through the device toward the heart.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2020Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: Edwards Lifesciences CorporationInventors: Mark M. Dehdashtian, Teodoro S. Jimenez, Nathan Satter, Fabian Daniel Schroeder, Raffaele Mazzei, Jeff Kosmoski, Shahram Zamani, Adam J. Yestrepsky

Patent number: 11185321Abstract: Suture clip deployment devices for applying suture clips to sutures are described. Some embodiments can include a generally tubular main body and a vacuum port located at the distal end, a hollow inner body longitudinally slidable within the main body and extending from the main body at its distal end, and a suture recess located in the generally tubular main body. At least one suture clip configured to frictionally fit on an outer surface of the inner body is deployed during use. Clip deployment can occur after a vacuum source is applied to the device so as to draw the suture into the device. The suture lines can be retrieved through the suture recess, and the device can be actuated so as to deliver the suture clip off the delivery device and onto the suture, locking the suture in place.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2019Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: Edwards Lifesciences CorporationInventors: Travis Zenyo Oba, Michael C. Murad, Manouchehr A. Miraki, Anthony P. Carcia, Fabian Daniel Schroeder, Raffaele Mazzei, Tyler Douglas Smith

Publication number: 20190290261Abstract: Suture clip deployment devices for applying suture clips to sutures are described. Some embodiments can include a generally tubular main body and a vacuum port located at the distal end, a hollow inner body longitudinally slidable within the main body and extending from the main body at its distal end, and a suture recess located in the generally tubular main body. At least one suture clip configured to frictionally fit on an outer surface of the inner body is deployed during use. Clip deployment can occur after a vacuum source is applied to the device so as to draw the suture into the device. The suture lines can be retrieved through the suture recess, and the device can be actuated so as to deliver the suture clip off the delivery device and onto the suture, locking the suture in place.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2019Publication date: September 26, 2019Inventors: Travis Zenyo Oba, Michael C.

Publication number: 20160166248Abstract: A multiple-fire securing device includes a hollow outer shaft, a reloader, a reloader movement assembly, a rail, and securing structures each defining an inner securing orifice. The reloader longitudinally moves within the outer shaft and has a distal end shaped to temporarily contact one of the securing structures. The rail is disposed within the reloader and has an installing location. The securing structures are disposed on the rail. The reloader movement assembly moves the reloader longitudinally in a distal direction to deliver a first securing structure to the installing location from a first proximal position and moves the reloader proximally away from the installing location without the first securing structure to a position in which the distal end of the reloader temporarily contacts a second one of the securing structures. The second and successive securing structures are moved one at a time to the installing location.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2015Publication date: June 16, 2016Inventors: Derek Dee Deville, Kevin W.
