Patent number: 11931277Abstract: Implant engagement mechanisms are disclosed for maintaining engagement with a stent until it has been fully deployed and expanded from a catheter or sheath. The apparatus, method and system involving these engagement mechanisms allow a physician to withdraw or retract a sheath prior to full deployment, thereby allowing for redeployment of the stent at a more desirable position.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: MicroVention, Inc.Inventors: Ponaka Pung, Tai D. Tieu, Ross Soltanian, Helen Nguyen, Oanh Nguyen, Britney Ngo

Publication number: 20230210678Abstract: An embolic device includes a microcoil having a portion comprising one or more sets of loops. Loops of each of the one or more sets intersect one with another in succession in a cycle, collectively forming a three-dimensional shape. A shape-setting device includes a three-dimensional (3D) body having a curved surface and a plurality of winding members extending from the curved surface of the 3D body and arranged in a plurality of groups. Winding members of each of the plurality of groups are configured to allow a microcoil to wrap around to form a loop, and adjacent groups of winding members share a winding member to allow loops formed by the adjacent groups to intersect one with another. A method of making an embolic device is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2022Publication date: July 6, 2023Applicant: DeepIn Technologies, LLCInventors: Ross Soltanian, Phu Phung

Publication number: 20230132550Abstract: In one embodiment according to the present invention, a stent is described having a generally cylindrical body formed from a single woven nitinol wire. The distal and proximal ends of the stent include a plurality of loops, some of which include marker members used for visualizing the position of the stent. In another embodiment, the previously described stent includes an inner flow diverting layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Applicant: Terumo CorporationInventors: Shirley Vong, Priscilla Tsai, Cang Lam, Ross Soltanian, Greg Bak-Boychuk, Tai D.

Publication number: 20220338878Abstract: An endovascular system employs a lever structure to deploy an embolic device at a target site in the vasculature of a patient. The endovascular system comprises an elongate tubular member provided with a lever structure and an elongate detachment wire to assert an effort to the proximal portion of a lever member outwardly, thereby generating a load to the distal portion of the lever member inwardly to allow the lever structure to engage and secure the embolic device. The elongate detachment wire is disengageable from the lever structure to remove the effort asserted to the proximal portion of the lever member, thereby removing the load off the distal portion of the lever member to allow the lever structure to disengage and release the embolic device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Ross Soltanian, Gregory M. Mast, Thomas Edmund Kiernan

Publication number: 20220339014Abstract: A delivery system employs a hold-release structure to deploy an implant at a target site in the vasculature of a patient. The hold-release structure may include two or more grasping members configured to close and exert an inward clamping force to hold the implant when the grasping members are constrained in a tubular member. The grasping members can open when unconstrained allowing the implant to be released. Alternatively, the hold-release structure may include two or more radially expandable members configured to exert an outward radial force when constrained by the tubular member allowing the hold-release structure to hold the implant against the tubular member. The radially expandable members can be configured to create a friction force on the implant allowing the hold-release structure to move the implant relative to the tubular member.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Ross Soltanian, Gregory M. Mast
