Patent number: 10028835Abstract: Devices and systems including implants (which may be removable) and methods of using them for reducing ventricular volume. The implants described herein are cardiac implants that may be inserted into a patient's heart, particularly the left ventricle. The implant may support the heart wall, or may be secured to the heart wall. The implants are typically ventricular partitioning device for partitioning the ventricle into productive and non-productive regions in order to reduce the ventricular volume.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2016Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: Edwards Lifesciences CorporationInventors: James R. Kermode, Miles D. Alexander, Michael P. Boutillette, Matthew T. Davila, Irene Bing Bie Tan

Patent number: 9332993Abstract: Described herein are devices, systems and methods for delivering an endocardial device. The systems for delivering the device transvascularly may generally include an elongate guide catheter having a proximal end and a distal end; a conical dilator at the distal end of the elongate guide catheter, the conical dilator being removable to enable delivery of the ventricular portioning device; a delivery catheter having a proximal and distal end; an expansion member near the distal end of the delivery catheter and configured to expand a plurality of struts of the partitioning device; and a coupling element configured to deployably secure to a hub of the partitioning device. The systems for delivering the device transapically may generally include an elongate access sheath; an elongate delivery catheter; an expansion member; and a coupling element proximal to the expansion member and configured to deployably secure to a hub of the partitioning device.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Assignee: CardioKinetix, Inc.Inventors: James R. Kermode, Miles D. Alexander, Matthew T. Davila
