20080294088 | Biodegradable Tissue Cutting Device, A Kit And A Method For Treatment Of Disorders In The Heart Rhythm Regulation System - A tissue cutting device is disclosed, which is structured and arranged to be inserted through the vascular system into a body vessel adjacent to the heart and/or into the heart, and to be subsequently subjected to a change of shape in order to penetrate into the heart tissue. The tissue cutting device may thus be used for treating disorders to the heart rhythm regulation system. A kit of tissue cutting devices provides a plurality of devices for creating a lesion pattern for treating such disorders. The tissue cutting device is of a biodegradable material, such as hydrolytically degradable material or an enzymatically degradable material. | 11-27-2008 |
20090209988 | PATIENT CONFIGURED DEVICE, A KIT AND A METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF DISORDERS IN THE HEART RHYTHM REGULATION SYSTEM - A patient-configured tissue cutting device is disclosed, which is structured and arranged to be inserted through the vascular system into a body vessel adjacent to the heart and/or into the heart, and to be subsequently subjected to a change of shape in order to penetrate into the heart tissue. The patient configured tissue cutting device may thus advantageously be used for treating disorders to the heart rhythm regulation system of a specific patient. A kit of devices provides a plurality of devices for creating a lesion pattern for treating such disorders, a device, system, and method for determining the shape of said vessel, are also disclosed. | 08-20-2009 |
20100016877 | Controllable Device, A Kit And A Method For Treatment Of Disorders In The Heart Rhythm Regulation System - A tissue cutting device is disclosed, which is structured and arranged to be inserted through the vascular system into a body vessel adjacent to the heart and/or into the heart, and to be subsequently subjected to a change of shape in order to penetrate into the heart tissue. The device comprises at least one connection element that is arranged such that a connection formed from said connection element between a first and second part of said tissue cutting device is configured to break when said connection element is subjected to a specific external influence. The tissue cutting device may thus be used for controllably treating disorders to the heart rhythm regulation system. A kit of devices provides a plurality of devices for creating a lesion pattern for treating such disorders. | 01-21-2010 |
20100305603 | Shape-Changing Medical Device, Kit, Method Of Production, And Method Of Use - The present disclosure relates to treatment of disorders in the heart rhythm regulation system and, more particularly, to a medical device for tissue cutting and/or migrating wherein the cutting and/or migrating is at least partly actuated by the swelling of a swellable material. The disclosure furthermore relates to a method of producing such a medical device, a kit of such medical devices, and a method for treating such disorders. | 12-02-2010 |
20120143301 | Implant, Medical Implant, And Method For Delivery Of A Medical Implant - An intravascular delivery device is disclosed comprising a delivery wire having a proximal and a distal end and an interior lumen extending there between and wherein said distal end comprises a connection interface adapted to matingly interlock with a proximal end portion of a medical implantable device, wherein said delivery device comprises a locking unit arranged to secure said connection interface in a locking position in which said medical implant is pivotably locked before a controlled release. | 06-07-2012 |
20130158645 | Support Structure For An Endoprothesis, An Endoprotheses And Associated Methods - The disclosure is related to an endoprothesis, such as a stent. The disclosure also relates to a support structure for an endoprothesis and methods of delivering such an endoprothesis as well as a method of manufacturing a support structure. Furthermore, the disclosure provides an improved positioning of an endoprothesis and overcomes the folding issues and thus improves the flow through a body vessel. One embodiment provides a tubular support structure for avoiding folding of an endoprothesis, such as a stent or a valve, comprising one or more first circumferential zigzag patterns, at least two second circumferential zigzag patterns and wherein the first and second circumferential zigzag patterns are overlapping. | 06-20-2013 |

20080208225 | APPARATUS FOR SEALING SURGICAL PUNCTURES - Apparatus is provided for sealing a puncture within a vessel or tissue to provide hemostasis, comprising a first disk coupled to either a second disk or a spring, and sealingly engaged to the vessel or tissue surrounding the puncture. At least the first disk is preferably configured to substantially conform to the profile of the vessel or tissue when deployed. In one embodiment, the disks may be released from engagement with the vessel or tissue to reposition the disks after deployment. | 08-28-2008 |
20080208226 | APPARATUS FOR SEALING SURGICAL PUNCTURES - Apparatus is provided for sealing a puncture within a vessel or tissue to provide hemostasis, comprising a first disk coupled to either a second disk or a spring, and sealingly engaged to the vessel or tissue surrounding the puncture. At least the first disk is preferably configured to substantially conform to the profile of the vessel or tissue when deployed. In one embodiment, the disks may be released from engagement with the vessel or tissue to reposition the disks after deployment. | 08-28-2008 |
20120165924 | Method and Device for Treatment of Mitral Insufficiency - A device for treatment of mitral annulus dilation is disclosed, wherein the device comprises two states. In a first of these states the device is insertable into the coronary sinus and has a shape of the coronary sinus. When positioned in the coronary sinus, the device is transferable to the second state assuming a reduced radius of curvature, whereby the radius of curvature of the coronary sinus and the radius of curvature as well as the circumference of the mitral annulus is reduced. | 06-28-2012 |
