Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for assessment, management, and treatment of congestion in heart failure. The systems and methods may include or relate to wireless implants, reader modules, and uses thereof, which are configured to measure hemodynamic parameters of a patient in different patient states and positions. For example, the reader module may be hands free. For example, the reader module may be used at home by a patient. The reader module may be able to take readings and measurements when the patient is in a multitude of positions, including but not limited to, the supine and the prone positions. The reader module may be able to communicate and receive data from an implanted device when in a certain proximity of the implanted device and may be able to store, analyze, and/or transmit data to a different wireless device over a network, for example. In an embodiment, the reader module may be portable and wearable, e.g., through use of a garment or strap.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hemodynamic monitoring system, and method and associated harness device. The method and system are configured to allow a user that has received a permanent sensing implant within their vasculature to place a reader device in a hands free manner in communication with the implant through the chest of the user to measure at least one hemodynamic parameter such as pulmonary artery pressure. The reader device may be worn by the patient with a harness device to be configured to wirelessly communicate with said implant when the patient is in a specific patient state, such as resting, exercising, recovering, seated, or supine. The reader may be configured to take measurements from the implant when the patient is in the specific patient state, in order to acquire data from said implant related to said parameter and to upload said data to an external device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to various anchoring systems for a catheter delivered device. In one instance the anchoring systems of the present disclosure are designed to be used in connection with a pulmonary artery implant device. In one embodiment, an anchoring system of the present disclosure comprises two anchoring ends, a distal end anchoring structure and a proximal end anchoring structure, where at least one of the distal or proximal anchoring structures has a clover-shaped structure formed by at least three lobes. In another embodiment, the distal anchoring structure includes an elongated and angled shape formed by wire material. In another embodiment, both the distal and proximal anchoring structures have a clover-shaped structure formed by at least three lobes.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to various anchoring assemblies, systems, and methods for a catheter delivered device or otherwise implantable biomedical sensors. In one instance the anchoring systems of the present disclosure are designed to be used in connection with a biomedical sensor configured to be placed in the various locations within the anatomy of a patient including: a junction of a renal vein and an inferior vena cava, a junction of a jugular vein branch and a subclavian vein branch, a junction of a brachiocephalic vein branch and a superior vena cava, or a junction of an iliac vein branch and an inferior vena cava. In one embodiment, an biomedical sensor and anchoring system can be implanted in an organ of a patient or in an organ to be transplanted within a patient.

Abstract: Provided are various embodiments of improvements made to methods, systems and assemblies of implant delivery systems and the associated implants. In one embodiment, provided is an implant delivery system comprising an implant, a first sheath and a second sheath each extending from a proximal end of said implant delivery system, the first sheath is translatable relative to said second sheath wherein said implant is connected to an exterior surface of said first sheath, and wherein said first sheath and said second sheath are movable with respect to one another to deploy said implant to a target site in an anatomy. Said delivery system may be configured to be partially inserted into a blood vessel of a human body such that said proximal end remains external to said body and said distal end is internal to said body.
