  • Publication number: 20230329730
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a manually actuated aspiration device, aspiration system and a method of use to enable and facilitate en bloc removal of undesirable intravascular material, including, but not limited to, thrombus, embolus, or vegetation through a working lumen of a suction cannula during minimally invasive percutaneous procedures. The aspiration device includes valves oriented in opposite direction to control the fluid flow through the aspiration system and into a waste collection component. Alternatively, the aspiration system further comprises a filter that removes undesirable intravascular material prior to reinfusing blood into a patient's vasculature.

  • Publication number: 20230030606
    Abstract: Systems and methods for aspiration system retrievers that are configured to remove undesirable intravascular material. The retrievers can be utilized in connection with manually operated or automatic recirculation aspiration systems. The retrievers can be configured to transition between various configurations, including a collapsed configuration suitable for being advanced through a lumen of a catheter and an expanded configuration suitable for collecting or mechanically disrupting the undesirable intravascular material.

  • Publication number: 20200164117
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to improved systems and methods for removing undesirable material residing in vessels. More specifically, the present invention relates to systems and methods for using at least one cannula to remove substantially en bloc, from a site of obstruction or interest, undesirable material without fragmentation and without excessive fluid loss.

  • Publication number: 20190217058
    Abstract: A device and method for delivering a drug from inside a body lumen to tissue surrounding the body lumen. An endoluminal drug delivery device is connectable to a drug source and includes a dual-lumen catheter, including a treatment device lumen for housing a guidewire and/or a treatment device and a needle lumen for housing a retractable needle. The guidewire exits the catheter through an opening at the distal end, and the needle exits the catheter through an exit port in the outer wall of the catheter.

  • Publication number: 20150057648
    Abstract: It is an object and advantage of this invention to provide an improved device and method that uses targeted laser wavelength to treat a diseased vessel. An advantage of this invention is targeted ablation of diseased vessels without harming non-target tissue. This new technique allows for a controlled ablation, may not require injection of tumescent anesthesia prior to treatment and may decrease unwanted or unintended side effects.
