| 20080200979 | ANTI-RESTENOTIC THERAPEUTIC DEVICE - An anti-restontic device is provided for repairing a tissue, particularly an arteriosclerosed blood vessel or a damaged wall of a luminal or chambered organ. In some embodiments, the device comprises a structure having a first surface and a second surface. A bioactive layer is disposed on the first surface, wherein the bioactive layer enhances growth of a type of cells thereon. And an anti-restenosis layer is disposed on the second surface, wherein the anti-restenosis layer inhibits growth of another type of cells thereon. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20090264978 | Friction-Release Distal Latch Implant Delivery System and Components - Provided herein are systems, devices and methods for the delivery of medical implants. A distal end portion of the implant is coupled with a delivery device by surface friction between the implant and an underlying surface such that the distal end portion is frictionally locked and maintained in the appropriate position and state prior to delivery. When positioned within the patient at the proper location, the state of frictional lock can be released to free the distal end portion of the implant from the delivery device. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20090299393 | RETRIEVAL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USE THEREOF - The devices and methods described herein relate to improved structures for removing obstructions from body lumens. Such devices have applicability in through-out the body, including clearing of blockages within the vasculature, by addressing the frictional resistance on the obstruction prior to attempting to translate and/or mobilize the obstruction within the body lumen | 12-03-2009 |
| 20110144669 | ANEURYSM COVER DEVICE FOR EMBOLIC DELIVERY AND RETENTION - An implant for treating brain aneurysms, especially terminal aneurysms, comprises a neck cover and elongate shaft removably secured to an embolic delivery catheter. As such, the shaft aids in directing and placing the cover at the aneurysm neck, protecting the delivery catheter from adhesion with the embolic material, and securing the cover in place with connection or adhesion of the shaft to the embolic material delivered through the catheter. The implant can be anchored at the aneurysm either by interface and/or adhesion of the shaft or shaft and cover with the resident embolic materials. | 06-16-2011 |
