Patent number: 11871916Abstract: Vascular closure devices and methods for closing a blood vessel puncture site disposed at a distal end of a tissue tract are described. A combination of the body's own natural mechanism with chemical and/or biological agents is relied upon to accelerate the hemostatic process. Included are steps of introducing a closure device through the tissue tract and deploying an expansible member at a distal end of the device within the blood vessel to occlude the puncture site. A sealing member disposed proximal the expansible member is then displaced by retracting and tensioning a coil spring so as to expose a chemical and/or biological region or release region of the device. The retraction and tensioning of the coil spring is limited by a coupling member. Exposure of blood and tissue to the chemical and/or biological sealing member promotes the clotting processing to accelerate the occlusion process in the tract.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Cardiva Medical, Inc.Inventors: Zia Yassinzadeh, Jeffrey I. Weitz, Alan Stafford

Publication number: 20230380820Abstract: Apparatus for sealing a vascular wall penetration disposed at the end of the tissue tract comprises a shaft, an occlusion element, a hemostatic implant, and a protective sleeve. The apparatus is deployed through the tissue tract with the occlusion element temporarily occluding the vascular wall penetration and inhibiting backbleeding therethrough. The hemostatic implant, which will typically be a biodegradable polymer such as collagen carrying an anti-proliferative agent or coagulation promoter, will then be deployed from the sealing apparatus and left in place to enhance closure of the vascular wall penetration with minimum scarring. The implant may be radiopaque to allow observation before release.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: Cardiva Medical, Inc.Inventors: Zia Yassinzadeh, Delfin Pelayo

Publication number: 20230346361Abstract: Multiple vascular wall penetrations are formed and sealed in a single blood vessel, typically a vein, for performing cardiac and other catheter-based procedures. Access sheaths are placed in two or more tissue tracts each having a vascular wall penetration at a distal end and into a lumen of the blood vessel. A catheter is advanced though each of the access sheaths to perform a therapeutic or diagnostic procedure. A vascular closure device is introduced through each access sheath, typically sequentially, and an occlusion element at a distal end of the device is deployed against an inner wall of the blood vessel in a manner so that the adjacent access sheath does not interfere or overlap with the deployed occlusion element. The vascular penetration at the distal end in that tissue tract may then be sealed prior to using another vascular closure device to seal a caudally adjacent vascular wall penetration.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2023Publication date: November 2, 2023Applicant: Cardiva Medical, Inc.Inventors: Zia Yassinzadeh, John L.

Publication number: 20230309980Abstract: Apparatus for sealing a vascular wall penetration disposed at the end of the tissue tract comprises a shaft, an optional occlusion element, a hydratable hemostatic implant, and a protective sleeve. The apparatus is deployed through the tissue tract with the occlusion element optionally occluding the vascular wall penetration and inhibiting backbleeding therethrough. The hydratable hemostatic implant, which will typically be a biodegradable polymer such as collagen carrying an anti-proliferative agent or coagulation promoter, will then be deployed from the sealing apparatus by retracting the protective sleeve and left in place to enhance closure of the vascular wall penetration with minimum scarring. The hydratable implant will be protected from premature hydration and swelling by a soluble plug covering the implant's distal end prior to sleeve retraction.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventor: Zia Yassinzadeh

Patent number: 10376255Abstract: A system for sealing a large penetration in the wall of a femoral artery comprises an occlusion catheter and an applicator. An access catheter may further be provided in order to facilitate introduction of the occlusion catheter. The occlusion catheter is introduced through a contralateral penetration, advanced over the aortic bifurcation, and an occlusion element on the occlusion catheter is positioned at the large diameter penetration. The occlusion element is then inflated to temporarily seal the large penetration while blood perfusion past the occlusion element is provided by the catheter. A sealing material, such as a tissue adhesive or other hemostatic agent is then introduced into a tissue tract above the large diameter penetration in order to seal the penetration. The occlusion element may be left in place while the sealing material has time to set, cure or otherwise form a permanent seal of the large penetration. The occlusion catheter and all access sheaths may then be removed from the patient.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2016Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: Cardiva Medical, Inc.Inventor: Zia Yassinzadeh
