  • Publication number: 20250009497
    Abstract: A medical device system includes a tubular medical device and a diameter reducing arrangement. The tubular medical device comprises a tubular graft body having proximal and distal ends. The diameter reducing arrangement is configured for constricting the medical device, and includes a strand section having first and second ends and being immovably secured to the medical device at the first end and at the second end. The second end is a first circumferential distance from the first end by way of a path along the strand section In a constricted configuration of the medical device a first portion of the strand section extends back on itself to form a first double-stranded tail leading to a first loop, the first tail extending circumferentially against the graft body, constricting the medical device by the strand section restricting the first circumferential distance between the first and second ends of the strand section.

  • Patent number: 8643938
    Abstract: The invention relates to a microcapsule, a system comprising microcapsules, and a corresponding method and apparatus, the microcapsule (11) comprising a core (12) which is encapsulated by an envelope (14) and in which at least one particle (16) having a motion component (17) and an indication component (18) is provided, the substance of the core (12) being capable of being transferred, at least for a short time, by an input of energy from a solid state or higher-viscosity state to a low-viscosity state, the at least one particle (16) being capable of undergoing a change in its position and/or orientation due to an input of energy occurring during the low-viscosity state of the substance of the core (12), and the substance of the core (12) reverting back, upon completion of the energy input, to the solid state or higher-viscosity state, thereby immobilizing the at least one particle (16) in its new position and/or orientation.
