Abstract: Disclosed are self-expanding medical implants for placement within a lumen of a patient. The implants comprise a woven or non-woven structure having a substantially tubular configuration, and are designed to be low-profile such that they are deliverable with a small diameter catheter. The implants have a high recoverability and desired mechanical properties.

Abstract: Delivery systems for polymeric tubular implants, kits that include such delivery systems, and methods of treating patients by implanting tubular implants using the delivery systems. The delivery systems include an inner shaft, an expandable member slidably disposed about the inner shaft and configured to receive the tubular implant, and a tubular outer shaft disposed about the inner shaft.

Abstract: This disclosure pertains, inter alia, to scaffold loading and delivery devices, assemblies, systems and methods of using the same.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, inter alia, materials, devices, kits and methods that may be used for loading scaffolds into delivery devices and delivery of scaffolds into the body of a patient, including delivery of scaffolds to the sinuses for the treatment of chronic sinusitis, among other purposes.

Abstract: Devices and methods for high-throughput manufacture of concentrically layered nanoscale and microscale fibers by electrospinning are disclosed. The devices include a hollow tube having a lengthwise slit through which a core material can flow, and can be configured to permit introduction of sheath material at multiple sites of Taylor cone formation formation.

Abstract: Medical implants and methods useful in treating postpartum hemorrhage are disclosed. The implants, in some embodiments, comprise polyurethane foams having advantageous mechanical and other properties selected to promote hemostasis when brought in contact with an inner wall of a uterus. Methods of making and deploying such implants are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for the targeted delivery of a therapeutic agent using expandable devices that are temporarily or permanently placed within the body. Such therapeutic agents may be delivered as a coating on the outer surface of the expandable device. Once positioned at a desired location within the body, the device is expanded such that its drug-coated outer surface establishes direct contact with a target tissue. The expanded device remains in contact with the target tissue for a pre-determined amount of time prior to being withdrawn from the body. Delivery of the therapeutic agent using the expandable device may be followed, or preceded, by delivery of a second expandable device to the same location within the body.
