Abstract: Medical systems for depositing fibrin on a medical device ex vivo are disclosed herein. According to some embodiments, the present technology includes a medical system comprising a vascular implant and a package defining a reservoir configured to receive the vascular implant and a volume of blood. The package can include an electrode disposed within the reservoir. The medical system can further include a current generator configured to be electrically coupled to the electrode. Activation of the current generator while the vascular implant and blood are present in the reservoir can cause current to flow through the blood and vascular implant, thereby applying an electrical charge to the vascular implant.

The operation may also include retrieving a first audio content and transmitting the first audio content to the user device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for removal of clot material from vessel lumens are disclosed. A medical device assembly can include a catheter having a lumen and a distal portion configured to be positioned at or adjacent a treatment site within a vessel. An expandable member has a first portion coupled to the distal portion of the catheter, and a second portion extending away from the catheter distal portion. An elongate shaft extends through the lumen of the catheter, and the second portion of the expandable member is releasably coupled to the shaft. When the shaft is slidably moved relative to the surrounding catheter, the second portion of the expandable member can be released from the shaft, and the shaft can be withdrawn or removed.

Abstract: In some examples, an endovascular device includes an elongated body configured to be introduced in a blood vessel of a patient and a plurality of electrodes disposed along the elongated body. The plurality of electrodes includes a first group of electrodes and a second group of electrodes. The endovascular device further includes a plurality of conductors including a first conductor electrically coupled to each electrode of the first group of electrodes and a second conductor electrically coupled to each electrode of the second group of electrodes. Each electrode of the first group of electrodes faces a first direction and each electrode of the second group of electrodes faces a second direction different from the first direction. The plurality of electrodes is configured to deliver electrical stimulation to tissue of a brain of the patient or sense a patient parameter from a location within the blood vessel.

Abstract: In some examples, an endovascular medical device includes an elongated body configured to be introduced in a cranial blood vessel of a patient and an expandable element on the elongated body. The expandable element includes a plurality of loops, wherein each loop includes one or more electrodes. The expandable element is configured to expand radially outwards from a relatively low-profile delivery configuration to a deployed configuration to position the one or more electrodes to deliver electrical stimulation to tissue of a brain of a patient or sense a patient parameter from a location within the cranial blood vessel.

Abstract: In some examples, a catheter includes an expandable member configured to expand radially outward from a collapsed configuration to an expanded configuration. The expandable member is configured to be expanded and contracted in a controlled manner, e.g., in response to user actuation or automatically under the control of control circuitry of a device. For example, in some examples, control circuitry of a device can be configured to control the expandable member to expand and contract according to a predetermined expansion frequency or according to an expansion frequency determined based on a cardiac cycle of a patient.
