Patent number: 10130662Abstract: A delivery system for delivery of a therapeutic agent such as stem cells into a vein and across a micro circulation system into an artery comprises a multi lumen catheter for delivery of a therapeutic agent. A discharge device is located in a vein. The operation of the delivery device is controlled by a pressure stem cell solution delivery gun system. There are multiple delivery stages. These may include delivery of an elixir to open up the pressure bed, a platelet-rich plasma, stem cells, scaffolds, and finally an elixir to provide emichment and nourishment of the stem cells.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2014Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: Tulip Endovascular Innovation LimitedInventors: Sherif Sultan, Niamh Hynes

Patent number: 8535360Abstract: Systems and methods treat superficial venous malformations, such as spider veins. The systems and methods distribute a light-reactive agent, e.g., verteporfin, at or near an inner wall of a vein. The systems and methods activate the light-reactive agent by applying non-thermal light energy at a wavelength that activates the light-reactive agent to cause localize injury to the inner wall of the vein.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2008Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Green Medical, Ltd.Inventors: Killian O'Dowd, Anthony Jakubowski, Edward George Mackay, II, Aidan Mulloy, Alan A. Creamer, Sherif Sultan

Patent number: 8470010Abstract: Systems and methods treat superficial venous malformations, such as spider veins. The systems and methods distribute a reactive agent, e.g., a light-reactive agent such as talaporfin sodium or verteporfin, at or near an inner wall of a vein. The systems and methods activate the reactive agent by applying energy, e.g. non-thermal light energy at a wavelength that activates the reactive agent to cause localized injury to the inner wall of the vein.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2010Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Green Medical, Inc.Inventors: Anthony Jakubowski, Aldan Mulloy, Edward G. Mackay, II, Killian O'Dowd, Alan A. Creamer, Sherif Sultan

Publication number: 20120277777Abstract: A vein stripping device 1 includes a catheter 2 for insertion into a vein 10 to be removed. The catheter 2 has a proximal region 3 adjacent a proximal end 4 of the catheter 2 and a distal region 5 adjacent a distal end 6 of the catheter 2. The catheter 2 is open at the distal end for passage of blood through the catheter from the distal end. The catheter 2 has a plurality of vein grippers 15, 16 at least along the distal region 5 for gripping a length of the vein 10 to the catheter 2. The vein grippers include a plurality of holes and/or gripping features 15, 16 spaced-apart along the wall of the catheter 2.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2012Publication date: November 1, 2012Applicant: Embricon LimitedInventors: Marto Hoary, Sherif Sultan, Colm Anthony McCormack
