  • Patent number: 11925772
    Abstract: A powered catheter and/or powered catheter system is described. The catheter includes a catheter hub with one set of contact components that are configured to connect to a mating cable with a corresponding second set of contact components. The mating cable can be part of another device, such as a controller or power source.

  • Publication number: 20230114169
    Abstract: Devices and methods for treatment of a patient’s vasculature are described. Embodiments may include a permeable implant having a radially constrained state configured for delivery within a catheter lumen, an expanded state, and a plurality of elongate filaments that are woven together. The implant may include a cavity in a proximal section that may optionally house embolic material, such as coils. Alternatively, the implant may have an expanded preset shape that is different than an expanded preset shape that is assumed after deployment in an aneurysm. The expanded preset shape may be frustoconical. Alternatively, the implant may include an outer skirt coupled to a proximal section of the permeable implant.

  • Publication number: 20220257258
    Abstract: Devices and methods for treatment of a patient's vasculature are described. Embodiments may include a permeable implant such as a permeable shell or mesh having a radially constrained state configured for delivery within a catheter lumen, an expanded state, and a plurality of elongate filaments that are woven together. The permeable implant may include a stiffer proximal portion that is configured to sit at the neck of an aneurysm. The stiffer proximal portion may include additional mesh layers on either the inside or the outside of a first permeable shell. The distal portion of the device may be softer and deformable.

  • Publication number: 20220257260
    Abstract: Devices and methods for treatment of a patient's vasculature are described. Embodiments may include an implant having multiple mesh layers. A first and second layer of the implant may be formed by folding over a single mesh and the third layer may be formed from a different mesh. The first, second, and third layers may be either a stasis or a structural layer and may be arranged in different orders. Embodiments may also include structures to assist in the expansion of the device. These structures may include an expandable loop or reinforcing finger extensions. Embodiments may also include a corrugation or ridge around a middle section of the implant to assist in deployment.

  • Publication number: 20220249098
    Abstract: Devices and methods for treatment of a patient's vasculature are described. Embodiments may include a permeable implant having a radially constrained state configured for delivery within a catheter lumen, an expanded state, and a plurality of elongate filaments that are woven together. The permeable implant may include a support structure having a plurality of scaffolding filaments where each of the plurality of scaffolding filaments has a diameter that is larger than a diameter of each of the plurality of elongate filaments of the first permeable shell.
