Abstract: The state of an interrupt is identified. An eligibility value corresponding to the interrupt is generated based on the state of the interrupt. The eligibility value is indicative of whether the interrupt should be processed by a first processing path or a second processing path, the second processing path being lower latency than the first processing path, and the second processing path bypassing operations performed in the first processing path. When an interrupt is received at an assembly language processing system, from a hardware device, the assembly language processing system accesses the eligibility value corresponding to the interrupt and routes the interrupt to the first or second processing path based on the eligibility value.

Abstract: Cyclic aspiration system including an aspiration catheter and a cyclic aspiration source connected in fluid communication thereto, wherein the cyclic aspiration pressure source produces a cyclic aspiration pressure waveform of intermittently cycling intervals of a vacuum pressure below atmospheric pressure and a positive pressure higher than the vacuum pressure. The system further including a non-powered internal structural impediment disposed within the lumen of the aspiration catheter and configured to engage with a clot capturable therein during resulting movement between the clot and the non-powered internal structural impediment while subject to the cyclic aspiration pressure waveform to assist in capture of the clot. The non-powered internal structural impediment may be permanently attached to the aspiration catheter or a separate component or device independently slidable within the lumen of the aspiration catheter.

Abstract: An aspiration catheter including a body having a proximal end and an opposite distal tip with a lumen extending in a longitudinal direction therethrough from the proximal end to the distal tip. The aspiration catheter further includes a stabilizing structural member stabilizing the body relative to the inner wall of the vessel to minimize movement and/or radial expansion of the distal tip of the body while subject to aspiration that otherwise may potentially damage the inner wall of the vessel.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for repairing a cardiac valve, e.g., a tricuspid valve, are provided. The apparatus may include a prosthetic device coupled to an elongated support to suspend and maintain the prosthetic device within the cardiac valve. The support may include a proximal elongated shaft detachably coupled, in a delivery state, to a distal elongated shaft coupled to the prosthetic device. The proximal elongated shaft may detach from the distal elongated shaft at a detachment area within the patient responsive to actuation and components of the distal elongated shaft may lock to implant the prosthetic device and the distal elongated shaft within the patient. The prosthetic device may be formed of biocompatible material coupled to a frame, and may have prosthetic leaflets that allows blood to flow through in one direction during a phase of the cardiac cycle (e.g., diastole) but prevent blood regurgitation during the other phase (e.g., systole).
