Publication number: 20090275919Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for deploying and/or retrieving a balloon configured to at least partially occlude a vessel, such as the coronary sinus. More particularly, embodiments of the present invention provide a stylet and a balloon catheter configured such that the stylet can be inserted into a lumen in the catheter and used to exert a force against an interior portion of the balloon in order to stretch the balloon and reduce the diameter of the balloon. In one embodiment, the stylet and the balloon both have specialty-configured tips that work together to prevent tearing of the balloon when the stylet is exerting a force against the interior of the balloon's tip.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2009Publication date: November 5, 2009Applicant: Edwards Lifesciences CorporationInventors: Joe Todd, Neil Saunders, David Wheeler

Publication number: 20060253059Abstract: An aortic cannula tip for reintroducing blood into the blood stream via the aorta. The tip creates a soft flame-shaped flow pattern that reduces the chances of dislodging atheromatous or adherent thromba from the inside surfaces of the aorta. A gentle tapered shape allows the tip to penetrate a small incision made in the aorta without causing undo trauma or risk of tearing. The tip includes a circumferential ridge that allows the tip to be rotated and/or pivoted while in the aorta without breaking a seal formed between the ridge and the aortal wall. A secondary port provides access to a second lumen useable to deploy an intraaortic filtration system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2005Publication date: November 9, 2006Inventors: Neil Saunders, Brian Jacobs, Jason Bultman

Patent number: 5761772Abstract: An automated drafting system particularly suitable for drafting textile strands of sliver is provided. The automated drafting system includes a synchronous drive sliver drafting roller system utilizing toothed gears in the preferred embodiment operatively connecting a pair of drafting rollers with one of the rollers being directly driven by a motor to thereby cause identical rotation of both rollers. The automated drafting system also includes a system for securing and pressuring together upper and lower sliver drafting rollers wherein the lower roller of a pair of drafting rollers is preferably maintained in a fixed but rotational position while the upper roller of the pair is pressured towards the lower roller and controllably restricted as to both horizontal and vertical movement during the drafting process.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 1996Date of Patent: June 9, 1998Assignee: North Carolina State UniversityInventors: Timothy G. Clapp, Jon P. Rust, Carlos Farrington, Dale Thomas Bowen, Roger Neil Saunders, Matthew Myers Thomas
