Patent number: 8795364Abstract: A system for repairing a vertebral disc defect, such as hernia or bulge, a full or partial tear in the annulus, or a weakened annulus wall as a result of an excision procedure. The system introduces a treatment device arranged to repair the defect, and may prevent the leakage of fluid from the nucleus. The components of the device may be resorbable materials, and may induce the ingrowth of cellular material into the components. The system may feature a locating device to ensure proper placement of the treatment device.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2005Date of Patent: August 5, 2014Assignee: Kensey Nash CorporationInventors: Douglas G. Evans, Gino Bradica, Jeffrey C. Kelly, Michael K. Carouge

Patent number: 7049348Abstract: Devices and processes (e.g., improved Plasticized Melt Flow processes (PMF) or improved Phase Separation Polymer Concentration (PSPC), etc.) used to make resorbable and non-resorbable structures for treating and/or healing of tissue defects are disclosed. Among the advantages of using these improved processes are the preservation of molecular weight and the broadening of the processing conditions for temperature sensitive polymers and therapies This reduction in processing temperature, pressure and time can help to preserve the molecular weight and/or integrity of the final product or any additive incorporated therein. The present invention relates to an improved porous implant wherein the pores of the implant present a second modeling material on their surfaces. This second material provides a textured or roughened face to the internal surfaces of pores.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2002Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Assignee: Kensey Nash CorporationInventors: Douglas G Evans, Jeffrey C Kelly, Todd M DeWitt

Among the advantages of using these improved processes are the preservation of molecular weight and the broadening of the processing conditions for temperature sensitive polymers and therapies (e.g. polylactide, polyglycolide, polycaprolactone or Cisplatin, etc.). This reduction in processing temperature, pressure and time can help to preserve the molecular weight and/or integrity of the final product or any additive incorporated therein. Additionally, pore size and shape tailoring can increase the osteoconductive nature of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2002Publication date: January 8, 2004Inventors: Douglas G.

Patent number: 6183232Abstract: A raw material delivery system is disclosed. It is used with a press of the type used to compact raw material in a die. The press has a horizontal table with an opening in which the die is held. A feed shoe is movable across the table between an extended position where a central bore of the feed shoe overlies the die and a retracted position. In one embodiment, a vertically movable feed tube is carried on a bridge, and has a passage through which raw material may pass. The vertically movable feed tube receives raw material from a vertically fixed feed tube received telescopically within the vertically movable feed tube. A valve is between the two feed tubes. A valve may be provided between the bridge and the feed shoe so that the raw material passes through this interface without being exposed to cross-ventilation.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 1999Date of Patent: February 6, 2001Assignee: AMSTED Industries IncorporatedInventors: Todd A. Bequette, Jeffrey C. Kelly, Thomas J. Krave, Robert S. Porter, Michael J. Dorband, Mark W. Green

The press has a horizontal table with an opening in which the die is held. A feed shoe is movable across the table between an extended position where a central bore of the feed shoe overlies the die and a retracted position where the central bore is aligned with a bore in a bridge. A vertically movable feed tube is carried on the bridge, and has a passage through which raw material may pass. The vertically movable feed tube receives raw material from a vertically fixed feed tube received telescopically within the vertically movable feed tube. A valve is between the two feed tubes.

Patent number: 5858556Abstract: A multilayer composite tubular structure for use as a stent in surgical procedures has an outer layer of biocompatible material, a middle layer of radiopaque material, and an inner layer of biocompatible material. The layers are metallurgically bonded, to form a composite stent which is ductile and permits large deformation without delamination between the biocompatible and radiopaque layers. The composite structure formed is visible on a fluoroscope, yet does not obstruct the details of the stent itself, or of the anatomical features surrounding the stent.A process of forming a multilayer composite tubular structure is also disclosed. A tube formed from radiopaque material is coaxially surrounded by a tube of biocompatible material. The tubes are simultaneously reduced, such as by tube drawing, swaging, or deep drawing, until a composite structure of a desirable diameter and wall thickness is formed. The tubes are then heat treated to cause diffusion bonding of the biocompatible and radiopaque layers.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 1997Date of Patent: January 12, 1999Assignee: UTI CorporationInventors: John K. Eckert, Jeffrey M. Farina, Joseph P. Gadda, Jeffrey C. Kelly, John G. Thomas
