  • Patent number: 9480479
    Abstract: A vaso-occlusive delivery system includes a vaso-occlusive coil, delivery wire assembly, and a link. The vaso-occlusive coil defines a coil lumen and has first and second coil windings defining a coil opening therebetween. The delivery wire assembly defines a delivery wire lumen, and includes an electrolytic detachment zone, a delivery wire conduit, and a delivery wire attached to the delivery wire conduit and extending through the delivery wire lumen distal of the delivery wire conduit. The link defines a link lumen and has link body including a proximal end of the link body defines an link opening in communication with the link lumen and a distal end of the link body includes a link detent extending radially from the link body, through the coil opening, securing the link body and the delivery wire assembly to the vaso-occlusive coil.

  • Patent number: 9314250
    Abstract: A delivery wire assembly for delivery of an occlusive device to a location in a patient's vasculature includes a delivery wire conduit having a proximal tubular portion coupled to a distal coil portion, the respective tubular and coil portions defining a conduit lumen. A core wire is disposed in the conduit lumen and having a distal end coupled to an occlusive device, wherein an elongate electrical contact body at least partially seated in the conduit lumen and coupled to a proximal end of the core wire, the electrical contact body and the proximal tubular portion forming a junction. A coil collar is disposed around the electrical contact body near the junction.

  • Publication number: 20120226343
    Abstract: A stent delivery system includes a delivery member, a frictional interfacing member disposed on a distal region of the delivery member, the frictional interfacing member comprising a plurality of perfusion channels, a self-expanding stent disposed over the respective frictional interfacing member and delivery member in a radially contracted configuration, and a sheath defining disposed over the respective self-expanding stent, frictional interfacing member, and delivery member, wherein the frictional interfacing member resists axial and/or rotational movement of the stent relative to the delivery member while the stent is in its radially contracted configuration, and wherein the perfusion channels permit fluid to flow from an interior region of the sheath proximal of the frictional interfacing member to an interior region of the sheath distal of the frictional interfacing member.
