Patent number: 10034788Abstract: A stent graft adaptor has an outer graft tube and an inner graft tube with the inner graft tube substantially concentric with and within the outer graft tube. A joining member extends between the inner tube and the outer tube. The joining member can be a continuous fold of graft material extending from a proximal end of the outer tube to a proximal end of the inner tube. The inner tube has at least one self expanding stent on an outer surface thereof and the outer graft tube has at least one self expanding stent on an inner surface. The outer surface of the outer tube provides a sealing surface to engage against the wall of a vessel and the inner tube provides a sealing surface to engage with a corresponding sealing surface of a stent graft deployed through it. The outer sealing surface can include barbs.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2015Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Piotr Miroslaw Kasprzak, II, Werner Dieter Ducke, David Ernest Hartley, Blayne A.

Patent number: 9522073Abstract: An endovascular stent graft delivery device has portion to remain outside a patient in use and a proximal portion to be introduced into a patient. The proximal portion has a dilator at the proximal end and a length extending module is fastened to the dilator and extends proximally. The length extending module has a proximal end which in use extends out of the patient. The dilator has a dilator marker and the length extending module has a first and second marker at the distal and proximal ends of the length extending module. The first marker and the second marker are at the same relative circumferential position on the length extending module so that the rotational position of the elongate body within the patient can be determined.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2013Date of Patent: December 20, 2016Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Piotr Miroslaw Kasprzak, Werner Ducke, Blayne A.

Patent number: 8753268Abstract: An endoscopic access port and sheath assembly or laparoscopic port (10) comprises a sheath (12) and a haemostatic valve. The sheath has an elongate tubular body and a sheath lumen through it. The haemostatic valve comprising a housing (14), the housing comprises a tubular body with an internal lumen (18) and a first end and a second end. The first end is connected to the sheath and the sheath lumen and the internal lumen are in fluid communication. The second end of the housing has an access port. There is a substantially cylindrical valve assembly (27) within the housing at the second end of the housing. The substantially cylindrical valve assembly is formed from a plurality of valve segments (28). Each valve segment has an elongate body being in cross section a sector of a circle. Each valve segment is formed from a resilient material.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2013Date of Patent: June 17, 2014Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Piotr Miroslaw Kasprzak, Werner Dieter Ducke, Blayne A.

Patent number: 8663306Abstract: A stent graft delivery device (1) has an elongated extension piece (20) extending from its proximal end of the introducer portion (3). The elongate extension piece is selectively separable from the introducer portion. A plurality of auxiliary guide wires (50) extend from through the stent graft delivery device and through the elongate extension piece. The auxiliary guide wires can cross over at the proximal end of the extension piece and return. The stent graft delivery device can be introduced into a patient via a femoral artery and the elongated extension piece can extend out an artery of the thoracic arch whereby to extend the auxiliary guide wires out of such an artery to give through and through guide wires. Catheterization of pararenal arteries is then possible via a brachial route.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2011Date of Patent: March 4, 2014Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Piotr Miroslaw Kasprzak, David Ernest Hartley, Werner Dieter Ducke, Blayne A.

Patent number: 8636789Abstract: A stent graft defining a main lumen bounded by a wall of graft material is disclosed. The stent graft has a valve portion between proximal and distal portions. The valve portion is formed by a wall portion having a part-circumferential double layer portion comprising an inner underlap portion and an outer overlap portion, the double layer portion forming a passageway parallel to the main lumen. The passageway has an entrance mouth and an exit mouth. The passageway has an open condition where the underlap and overlap portions are spaced apart to form a vent lumen. The wall portion is broken by a narrow cut. The cut is openable by relative radial movement between its edges. This allows re-perfusion of an aneurism and perfusion of blood from within the lumen out towards blood vessels such as intercostals and can assist in minimizing the chance of paraplegia.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2012Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Krasnodar Ivancev, Piotr Miroslaw Kasprzak, David Ernest Hartley
