20100087913	Temporary, Repositionable Or Retrievable Intraluminal Devices - A stent formed of a metallic material having a two-way memory adapted to be retrieved or repositioned after delivery includes an elongated tubular body and at least one crown connected to a respective longitudinal end of said body, the crown including a plurality of unconnected leaves, each leaf having a longitudinally extending frame connected at one end to said end of said body. A method of manufacturing the stent to that the crown has a greater two-way memory effect than the body is disclosed.	04-08-2010
20100016952	Process For Inducing A Two-Way Shape Memory Effect In A Device Formed Of A Shape Memory Alloy And A Device Made By The Process - A process for inducing a two-way shape memory effect in a device forward of a shape memory alloy and a device made by the process are disclosed. The two-way memory effect occurs in the device in a temperature range of between about 5° C. to 25° C. wherein the training process is based on B2←→R phrase transformations. An R-phase formation or reorientation takes place in the device under stress whereupon the R-phase transforms into stress induced martenite. The device is subjected to thermocycling.	01-21-2010
