Publication number: 20200113667Abstract: An absorbable vascular filter is disclosed for deployment within a vessel for temporary filtering of body fluids. An embodiment is configured for the placement of such absorbable vascular filter within the inferior vena cava (IVC) to filter emboli for the prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE) for a limited duration in time. Once protection from PE is complete, the filter is biodegraded according to a planned schedule determined by the absorption properties of the filter components. Hence the temporary absorbable vascular filter obviates the long term complications of permanent IVC filters such as increased deep vein thrombosis, neighboring organ puncture from filter fracture and embolization while also circumventing the removal requirement of metal retrievable IVC filters.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventor: Mitchell Donn EGGERS

Patent number: 10531942Abstract: An absorbable vascular filter is disclosed for deployment within a vessel for temporary filtering of body fluids. A preferred embodiment is the placement of such absorbable vascular filter within the inferior vena cava (IVC) to filter emboli for the prevention of pulmonary embolism for a limited duration in time. Once protection from PE is complete, the filter is biodegraded according to a planned schedule determined by the absorption properties of the filter components. Hence the temporary absorbable vascular filter obviates the long term complications of permanent IVC filters such as increased deep vein thrombosis, neighboring organ puncture from filter fracture and embolization while also circumventing the removal requirement of metal retrievable IVC filters.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2012Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: ADIENT MEDICAL, INC.Inventor: Mitchell Donn Eggers

Patent number: 10383718Abstract: An absorbable vascular filter is disclosed for deployment within a vessel for temporary filtering of body fluids. A preferred embodiment is the placement of such absorbable vascular filter within the inferior vena cava (IVC) to filter emboli for the prevention of pulmonary embolism for a limited duration in time. Once protection from PE is complete, the filter is sequentially biodegraded according to a planned schedule determined by the absorption properties of the filter components. Hence the temporary absorbable vascular filter obviates the long term complications of permanent IVC filters such as increased deep vein thrombosis, while also circumventing the removal requirement of metal retrievable IVC filters.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: ADIENT MEDICAL, INC.Inventor: Mitchell Donn Eggers

Publication number: 20160151144Abstract: A vascular filter stent is disclosed for deployment within a vessel for filtering of body fluids. A preferred embodiment is the placement of such vascular filter stent within the inferior vena cava (IVC) to filter emboli for the prevention of pulmonary embolism. By incorporating a stent into the filter design, vessel patency and filter positioning is maintained, while minimizing endothelialization thereby obviating the long term complications of conventional metal VC filters such as filter migration and increased deep vein thrombosis.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2016Publication date: June 2, 2016Inventor: Mitchell Donn Eggers

Publication number: 20040142371Abstract: A method is disclosed for requesting genomics services from a service provider over the Internet and providing genomics services to a client over the Internet. The client provides biological samples and identifies genome sequences of interest. The service provider obtains the biological samples and genome sequences, provides microarrays containing the identified genome sequences, and applies the biological samples to the microarrays. The client receives the results of the analysis over the Internet. The genomics services provided include genotyping, gene expression, and proteomics. The Client is able over the Internet to obtain the current status of the samples and the experiments and to modify the requested experiments based, for example, on the analysis of previously obtained results.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 2, 2004Publication date: July 22, 2004Applicant: GENOMETRIX GENOMICS INC.Inventors: Aleksandar Milosavljevic, Mitchell Donn Eggers, Michael E.
