  • Patent number: 9956323
    Abstract: Medical devices for local bioactive delivery are described. A medical device includes a first biodegradable layer, a second biodegradable layer, and a bioactive disposed between the first and second biodegradable layers. The first and second biodegradable layers are positioned such that a surface of the first biodegradable layer faces a surface of the second biodegradable layer and such that a peripheral portion of one biodegradable layer is folded over a peripheral portion of the other biodegradable layer. Methods of making medical devices and methods of using medical devices are also described.

  • Publication number: 20170157359
    Abstract: Medical devices useful in the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents, kits and methods are described. An example catheter comprises an elongate member having an elongate member proximal end, an elongate member distal end, and an elongate member main body extending between the elongate member proximal end and the elongate member distal end. The elongate member main body defines an elongate member circumferential wall, first, second, and third openings on the elongate member proximal end, a first heating lumen extending from the first opening toward the elongate member distal end, a second heating lumen extending from the second opening toward the elongate member distal end, and a treatment lumen extending from the third opening toward the elongate member distal end. The treatment lumen comprises a blind passage. The elongate member circumferential wall defines a plurality of passageways providing fluid communication between the treatment lumen and an environment external to the catheter.

  • Publication number: 20160175559
    Abstract: Medical devices for local bioactive delivery are described. A medical device has an elongate shaft extending between proximal and distal ends and a distal portion that defines a pigtail. A balloon is disposed on the elongate shaft proximal to the pigtail. The elongate shaft defines a first working lumen with a distal opening disposed between the balloon and the pigtail, and a second working lumen with a distal opening disposed distal to the first working lumen distal opening. Methods of using medical devices are also described.
