Appl. No.:

09/751498

Chris Andrews - Murrieta CA, US

International Classification:

A61M029/00

US Classification:

604/098010, 604/101020

Abstract:

A balloon catheter inflation system. And inflation device includes a housing defining a chamber for an inflation medium. The housing can be coupled to a balloon catheter that has two balloons. The housing can be coupled to the catheter such that the chamber is in fluid communication with the balloons. The inflation system further includes a valve configuration operatively associated with the chamber to provide a first pressure to one of the balloons and a second pressure to the other balloon by a single inflating action that moves the inflation medium from the chamber to the balloons. The balloons of a multiple balloon catheter can each be inflated to a different pressure substantially simultaneously by a single inflating action.

International Classification:

A61F 2/06

US Classification:

623 136

Abstract:

A supplemental elasticity device is attached to an artery in the knee to replace lost elastic behavior. The supplemental elasticity device is attached near both ends of the vessel section which it is intended to compress. In this case, the vessel section extends from the adductor canal to below the knee joint. Supplemental elasticity device fixation can be achieved by tabs, spikes or hooks extending from the supplemental elasticity device or increased friction between the supplemental elasticity device and vessel wall, or a combination of both. To assist with maintaining hemostasis, the fixation points may include fabric patches on the supplemental elasticity device surface. The supplemental elasticity device can be deployed in an un-stretched or nominal length when the leg is bent. It is also possible to deploy when the leg is straight if the supplemental elasticity device is in an elongated configuration during deployment. In one embodiment, the supplemental elasticity device has the ability to elongate 15% of its length and return to its nominal length for the life of the supplemental elasticity device. For an annual duty cycle of 62,000 cycles per year, a ten year life would require the supplemental elasticity device to remain intact for 620,000 cycles.

International Classification:

B23P 17/04

US Classification:

29592

Abstract:

Method for manufacturing an endoprosthesis are described. The method may include selecting an indication range based on a range of inner diameters of a body lumen. A nominal diameter of the endoprosthesis may be selected. A range of chronic outward force, a range of radial force, a range of safety factors, or combinations thereof may be selected. A design characteristic may be determined based on the indication range, the nominal diameter, and at least one of the range of chronic outward force, the range of radial force, and the range of safety factors. The endoprosthesis may be manufactured based on the determined design characteristic.

International Classification:

A61B 17/08

US Classification:

606213

Abstract:

An anchor assembly configured to locate and anchor body tissue surrounding an opening in the body tissue. The anchor assembly can include a plurality of anchor elements. Each anchor element can include an elongate portion and an anchor portion extending from the elongate portion. The elongate portion can be configured to be manipulated by a user. The anchor portion can have a contracted configuration capable of passing through the opening in the body tissue and can have an expanded configuration capable of anchoring the body tissue surrounding the opening. The anchor portion and the elongate portion can be integrally formed from a single wire.

US Classification:

600 3

Abstract:

An intravascular device such as a stent is placed in a plasma source ion implantation (PSII) chamber wherein a plasma of radioactive ions is introduced to surround the device. A negative potential is applied to the stent to accelerate the ions towards the device and implant them into the surface of the device, thereby rendering the device radioactive. The stent is next deployed intravascularly within a patient's body to maintain the patency of a blood vessel and irradiate the surrounding tissue to prevent the development of restenosis.
