Abstract: A deployable occlusion device for filling an aneurysm. The occlusion device includes a support structure, for example a wire or otherwise elongate structure. The occlusion device also includes a mesh component having a porosity. The mesh component has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion of the mesh component is attached to the support structure and the second end portion of the mesh component is a free end. The mesh component extends from the support structure.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to an occlusion device having a mesh structure. The occlusion device configured to transition between a two-dimensional configuration and a three-dimensional configuration. In the two-dimensional configuration and at rest, the occlusion device is flat or planar. In the three-dimensional configuration, the occlusion device defines an internal volume.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an implantable device having a frame and a flow restrictor. The frame includes a central portion and an end portion on either end of the frame. The flow restrictor is disposed within a lumen of the frame. The flow restrictor is configured to transition between a collapsed configuration and a deployed configuration. The flow restrictor may include a porosity configured to reduce fluid flow through the flow restrictor without completely occluding fluid flow.

Abstract: A microactuator and method of operation is disclosed for use in actuating valves, electrical contacts, light beams, sensors and other elements between different actuation modes. An actuator member comprised of a shape memory alloy layer is mounted on an elastic substrate, and the proximal end of the actuator member is carried by a base. The shape memory alloy material is heated through its phase change transition temperature so that it deforms by changing volume to bend the distal end of the actuator member in a first direction relative to the base. Stress forces in the substrate oppose the bending movement, and when the shape change layer is cooled below the transition temperature the stress forces move the distal in a second direction which returns the shape change layer to its low temperature shape. Electrostatic forces are selectively applied between the actuator member and base for clamping the actuator member in one of its positions.
