Abstract: A clip for reducing a dimension of an opening in tissue may include a continuous member having a plurality of legs and a plurality of preformed bends connecting adjacent legs, wherein the plurality of legs form: a first group having two protrusions; a second group having two protrusions; and a third group having two protrusions, wherein each protrusion of each group includes two legs of the continuous member and a corresponding preformed bend connecting the two legs, and each protrusion of each group extends from a region adjacent a first end of the clip to a region adjacent a second end of the clip.

Abstract: Expandable occlusive plugs and methods of using them are disclosed. The devices generally include a tubular body bearing multiple slits defining leaves, which expand radially outward when the ends of the device are brought toward one another.

Abstract: Delivery systems for liquid embolics and methods of using them are disclosed. The devices generally include a catheter and one or more retention elements to limit migration of the liquid embolic to non-target sites.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure pertain to blood vessel occlusion devices having a central longitudinal axis and comprising: (a) a hub, (b) a self-expanding support frame comprising a plurality of wire segments forming a plurality of cells, and (c) a covering material covering cells within the transition portion. The support frame may be self-expandable from a constrained shape to an unconstrained shape that comprises (ii) a substantially cylindrical portion having a diameter and an axis that is coincident with the central longitudinal axis, the substantially cylindrical portion comprising a first ring of the cells extending in a 360° rotation around the central longitudinal axis and (ii) a transition portion disposed between the substantially cylindrical portion and the hub. Other aspects for the disclosure pertain to assemblies, kits and methods that employ such devices.
