Publication number: 20240082027Abstract: A distal aortic stent graft assembly including a main body having a proximal end and a distal end. The main body defines a peripheral opening. The proximal end defines a proximal opening. The distal end defines a distal opening. The proximal opening and the distal opening are configured to perfuse blood through the main body when the main body is in a deployed state. The distal aortic stent graft assembly further includes a coupling extending radially from the main body and corresponding to the opening in the main body. The coupling is configured to align with a blood vessel and perfuse blood through the coupling when the coupling is in the deployed state.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Keith PERKINS, Zachary BORGLIN, Mark STIGER, Julie BENTON, Steven CLAESSENS, Travis ROWE, Mark YOUNG

Publication number: 20240000560Abstract: A stent graft assembly including a main body and a branch coupling extending radially from the main body. A proximal end of the single branch stent device is configured to seal in an ascending portion of an aorta. The assembly further includes a modular stent device including a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end of the modular stent graft is configured to couple to a distal end of the single branch stent device. The modular stent device includes a main body configured to couple inside the main body of the single branch stent device. The modular stent device includes a bypass gate and an artery leg. The modular stent device is configured to bifurcate at a bifurcation point from the main body to the bypass gate and the artery leg outside of and distal the distal end of the single branch stent device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2023Publication date: January 4, 2024Inventors: Keith PERKINS, Zachary BORGLIN, Mark STIGER, Julie BENTON, Steven CLAESSENS, Travis ROWE, Mark YOUNG

Patent number: 11850173Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to a modular stent device that is deployed into the ascending aorta via femoral access. The modular stent device is a base or anchor component to which additional modular stent devices can be attached to exclude diseased areas of the aorta while at the same time allowing perfusion of the brachiocephalic artery, the left common carotid artery, and/or the left subclavian artery.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Medtronic Vascular, Inc.Inventors: Keith Perkins, Zachary Borglin, Mark Stiger, Julie Benton, Steven Claessens, Travis Rowe, Mark Young

Patent number: 11826226Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to a modular stent device including a main body configured to be deployed in the ascending aorta, a bypass gate configured to be deployed in the aorta, and a bifurcated contra limb. The bifurcated contra limb includes a single proximal limb that is bifurcated (split) into a first distal limb and a second distal limb. By forming the bifurcated contra limb to include a single proximal limb that is bifurcated into the distal limbs, guiding a guide wire into the relatively larger opening of bifurcated contra limb at a proximal end is simpler than guiding a guidewire into two smaller limbs extending distally from main body. Accordingly, cannulation of the bifurcated contra limb is relatively simple thus simplifying the procedure. In addition, the parallel design mimics anatomical blood vessel bifurcations to limit flow disruptions.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2019Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Medtronic Vascular, Inc.Inventors: Keith Perkins, Zachary Borglin, Mark Stiger, Julie Benton, Steven Claessens, Travis Rowe, Mark Young

Publication number: 20230255745Abstract: A method for deploying a stent device having a main body, a proximal coupling, and a distal coupling. The method includes extending a first guidewire in an aorta, extending a second guidewire in a brachiocephalic artery, and extending a third guidewire in an aortic branch vessel. The method further includes tracking the stent device along the first, second, and third guidewires. During the tracking step, the first guidewire extends through the main body, the second guidewire extends through the proximal coupling, and the third guidewire extends through the distal coupling. The method also includes deploying the main body within the aorta with the proximal coupling aligning with the brachiocephalic artery and the distal coupling aligning with the aortic branch vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 27, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Inventors: Keith PERKINS, Zachary BORGLIN, Mark STIGER, Julie BENTON, Steven CLAESSENS, Travis ROWE, Mark YOUNG

Patent number: 11672645Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to an assembly including a single multibranch stent device. The single multibranch stent device includes a main body, a proximal coupling extending radially from the main body, and a distal coupling extending radially from the main body. The main body, the proximal coupling, and the distal coupling are permanently coupled to one another and the single multibranch stent device is a single piece. By forming the single multibranch stent device as a single piece, the single multibranch stent device can be deployed in a single deployment thus simplifying the deployment procedure.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2021Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: Medtronic Vascular, Inc.Inventors: Keith Perkins, Zachary Borglin, Mark Stiger, Julie Benton, Steven Claessens, Travis Rowe, Mark Young

Publication number: 20230031517Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to a method including navigating an adhesive catheter to a proximal end of a false lumen of a dissection. The false lumen is defined by a septum and a vessel wall. The method further includes delivering an adhesive from the adhesive catheter to the proximal end of the false lumen. The adhesive is compressed between the septum and the vessel wall to close the false lumen.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Keith PERKINS, Ian BARANOWSKI, Zachary BORGLIN, Tessa BRONEZ

Publication number: 20220192814Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure generally relate to modular stent device and method of deploying the same. The method includes introducing a delivery system including the modular stent device via supra aortic access. The delivery system is advanced into the ascending aorta. Once positioned, the modular stent device is deployed from the delivery system such that an artery leg of the modular stent device engages the brachiocephalic artery and a bypass gate engages the aorta, wherein the artery leg partially collapses the bypass gate. The artery leg has a greater radial force than the bypass gate such that the artery leg remains un-collapsed and opened. Accordingly, blood flow through the artery leg and perfusion of the brachiocephalic artery and preservation of blood flow to cerebral territories including the brain is insured.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2022Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Keith Perkins, Zachary Borglin, Mathew A.

Patent number: 10939990Abstract: A laser is used to form openings within a graft material to selectively enhance permeability of a prosthesis for tissue integration therein. A feature of utilizing a laser to create the openings for tissue integration builds from its tunability. More particularly, the laser precisely places openings in any pattern and location, and on any textile that forms the graft material. Further, the power and focus of the laser is precisely adjusted to control the diameter and shape of the openings. All parameters of the openings can be controlled at will, allowing for the opportunity to selectively enhance and optimize the permeability of the graft material in a vessel.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2018Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: MEDTRONIC VASCULAR, INC.Inventors: Zachary Borglin, Matt Petruska, Keith Perkins, Julie Benton
