Patent number: 10130387Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2014Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Robert McRae, Jessica Clayton, James Hanlon, Lawrence Go, Tim Huynh

Patent number: 9242068Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2009Date of Patent: January 26, 2016Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Michael Thai, Thomas Chien, Kelvin Ning, Robert Mcrae

Publication number: 20150342468Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Inventors: Herbert J. Semler, Shawn Gregory Scott, Robert McRae

Publication number: 20150342674Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2015Publication date: December 3, 2015Inventors: Michael Mirizzi, Robert McRae, Halil Karabey, Anna Prestezog, Todd Schoenberger, Jeff Zalewski, Brady Esch

Publication number: 20070100405Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2006Publication date: May 3, 2007Inventors: Russell Thompson, Brady Esch, Robert McRae, Michael Abelmann, Brian Farley, Vijay Dhaka, Fiona Sander

Publication number: 20060123646Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2004Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventor: Robert McRae
