Patent number: 8574618Abstract: A bio-absorbable stand-alone film is derived at least in part from fatty acids. The bio-absorbable stand-alone film can have anti-adhesive, anti-inflammatory, non-inflammatory, and wound healing properties, and can additionally include one or more therapeutic agents incorporated therein. The stand-alone film has one or more perforations or depressions formed therein. Corresponding methods of making the bio-absorbable stand-alone film with one or more perforations or depressions include molding, cutting, carving, puncturing or otherwise suitable methods to create the perforations or depressions in the bio-absorbable stand-alone film. The resulting stand-alone film is bioabsorbable.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2012Date of Patent: November 5, 2013Assignee: Atrium Medical CorporationInventors: Steve A. Herweck, Thomas M.

Publication number: 20120315219Abstract: A coated medical device and a method of providing a coating on an implantable medical device result in a medical device having a bio-absorbable coating. The coating includes a bio-absorbable carrier component. In addition to the bio-absorbable carrier component, a therapeutic agent component can also be provided. The coated medical device is implantable in a patient to effect controlled delivery of the coating, including the therapeutic agent, to the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2012Publication date: December 13, 2012Inventors: Roger Labrecque, Geoffrey Moodie, Joseph Ferraro, Lisa Rogers, Paul Martakos, Theodore Karwoski, Steve A.

Patent number: 8308684Abstract: A non-polymeric or biological coating applied to a radially expandable interventional medical device in a collapsed, wrapped, or folded configuration, the coating applied within at least one fold. Properties of the coating material applied to the medical device are adjusted or varied to result in a desired combination of coverage of the surface of the medical device, drug loading, and coating thickness. The coating is sterile, and is capable of being carried by a sterile medical device to a targeted tissue location within the body following radial expansion. The therapeutic coating transfers off the medical device due in part to a biological attraction with the tissue and in part to a physical transference from the medical device to the targeted tissue location in contact with the medical device.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2011Date of Patent: November 13, 2012Assignee: Atrium Medical CorporationInventors: Steve A. Herweck, Paul Martakos, Geoffrey Moodie, Roger Labrecque, Theodore Karwoski, Trevor Carlton, Lisa Rogers, Joseph Ferraro

Publication number: 20100233232Abstract: The present invention is directed toward fatty acid-based particles, and methods of making such particles. The particles can be associated with an additional, therapeutic agent. Also provided herein is a method of forming fatty acid particles, comprising associating a cross-linked, fatty acid-derived biomaterial with a cryogenic liquid; and fragmenting the bio material/cryogenic liquid composition, such that fatty acid particles are formed. The particles can be used for a variety of therapeutic applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2009Publication date: September 16, 2010Inventors: Thomas M.

Publication number: 20070228146Abstract: A clearinghouse receives medical-related financial data, including data describing payment claims for medical services from a provider and payment polices and explanations of benefits (EOBs) from a payer. The clearinghouse aggregates the data into logical units, such as family units. A translation module translates codes in the EOBs or other data into layperson descriptions. An end-user uses a client computer to download the aggregated medical-related financial data from the clearinghouse. An analytics module at the client computer analyzes the medical-related financial data to identify items of interest to the end-user, such as billing and payment errors, and available tax deductions. The end-user can input personal medical data and the analytics module will correlate the medical data with the medical services identified by the financial data.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2006Publication date: October 4, 2007Inventors: Lisa Rogers, Edward Robinson, Hector Lopez, Terry LeClair

Patent number: 7093625Abstract: Apparatus and method for filling spaced apart cavities with particulate material include a transport for moving the cavities along a path of travel. The cavities are partially filled with particulate material at an upstream location while applying vacuum underneath each cavity during such partial filling. The partially filled cavities are then completely filled with a downstream deposit of particulate material while applying vacuum to the upper sides of each cavity during such filling. The combination of vacuum applied underneath the cavity during partial fill and vacuum applied to the top sides of the cavity during complete fill produces approximately 100% cavity fill with minimal extraneous scatter of particulate material.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2004Date of Patent: August 22, 2006Assignee: Philip Morris USA Inc.Inventors: Barry S.
