  • Publication number: 20220395284
    Abstract: A minimally invasive blood clot capturing invention made of nitinol. The nitinol is shaped into a plurality of fingers to form a frame for a basket and funnel to capture and remove blood clots. The basket and fennel being delivered to the blood clot by a catheter. The basket and funnel are capable of being collapsed within a catheter, capable of being deployed into a blood vessel, end capable of being retracted into the catheter for removal from the blood vessel.

  • Publication number: 20190001027
    Abstract: A Quaternary Mg—Zn—Ca-based alloy and a heat treatment process for producing bioresorbable bone fixation implants are described thereof. The mechanical and biocorrosion properties of the fabricated Mg-based alloy were improved by combining careful selection of the alloy's chemical composition and subsequent post-shaping process (heat treatments). Heat treatment process is more privileged especially after fabricating the part into its final shape such as in additive manufacturing (3D-printing) and powder metallurgy. In this way, it is possible to produce biocompatible, strong and less corrosive patient-specific bone fixation hardware. Also, such heat-treated Mg—Zn—Ca-based parts can be further coated with various types of biocompatible ceramic coatings for slower and more tailored biocorrosion rates.
