  • Patent number: 10130387
    Abstract: A sheath comprises an elastomeric tube having a self-expanding scaffold coupled to a wall. The scaffold can expand to a diameter larger than the tube diameter to provide an enlarged distal opening. An aspiration catheter has a balloon and an aspiration port so that occlusive material can be removed from a blood vessel by drawing the balloon through the vessel while simultaneously aspirating through the port.

  • Patent number: 9242068
    Abstract: An infusion catheter includes a catheter body having a proximal end, a distal end, and two or more lumens extending therethrough. The infusion catheter also includes an infusion tube having a proximal end, a distal end, and one or more ports disposed therethrough. The first lumen of the catheter body is in fluid communication with the lumen of the infusion tube. A central member has a distal end connected to the distal end of the infusion tube, a proximal end, and a proximal portion slidably received in the second lumen of the catheter body. The infusion tube is disposed relative to the central member such that axial advancement of the central member relative to the catheter body radially collapses the infusion tube over the central member and axial retraction of the central member relative to the catheter body radially expands the infusion tube about the central member.

  • Publication number: 20150342468
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for diagnosing heart failure are disclosed. They include monitoring a subject's pulsatile blood flow with a non-invasive probe during a Valsalva maneuver (VM), processing data therefrom to calculate fall in flow, hear rate changes, Rebound, and heart stroke volume during the VM. Monitored and calculated results are compared to defined thresholds and interpreted and reported. The apparatus takes the form of a pulsatile blood flow probe on a finger or toe or in a mouthpiece facilitating the VM, the mouthpiece optionally including a pressure transducer or digital monometer to ensure that the subject is performing the VM within required pressure and time ranges. The method and apparatus include a controller or digital processor for processing and reporting the results of the monitoring, calculations, comparisons, interpretation, and reporting of the diagnostic results.

  • Publication number: 20150342674
    Abstract: A catheter is usable to treat a hollow anatomical structure (HAS). The catheter comprises one or more shafts which extend away from a proximal end of the catheter toward a distal end thereof. The catheter further comprises an HAS constriction energy source located at or near the distal end of the catheter. The catheter further comprises at least one radially expandable transmural fluid delivery channel located in the catheter near the HAS constriction energy source.

  • Publication number: 20070100405
    Abstract: A working end of a catheter includes at least one therapeutic element, such as a resistive heating element, usable to deliver energy for ligating, or reducing the diameter of, a hollow anatomical structure. In certain examples, the catheter includes a lumen to accommodate a guide wire or to allow fluid delivery. In certain embodiments, a balloon is inflated to place resistive element(s) into apposition with a hollow anatomical structure and to occlude the structure. Indexing devices and methods are also disclosed for successively treating portions of the hollow anatomical structure. In certain examples, marks along the catheter shaft provide visual verification to the physician of the relative position of the therapeutic element of the catheter. Embodiments of indexing devices may include pairs of rings and/or hinged arms that move a catheter a desired indexed position between successive treatments.

  • Publication number: 20060142824
    Abstract: A treatment system for occluding a hollow anatomical structure comprises a treatment device sized for insertion into a hollow anatomical structure. The treatment device comprises a therapeutic element configured to treat the hollow anatomical structure. The system comprises a sensor configured to sense a first treatment parameter. A controller is in communication with the treatment device and with the sensor. The controller is configured to determine a second treatment parameter based on the first treatment parameter and output the second treatment parameter.

  • Publication number: 20060123646
    Abstract: The V-Level will give an accurate and an exact level reading, rather than having to read an ordinary level twice, to obtain a level or plumb of two perpendicular planes, at a ninety degree angle to each other. You can now have six bubbles to level, plum, and square, ‘exactly’ in one movement. Leveling walls, floors, tile, and framing can be done in one simple step.
