| 20090054724 | IMPLANTABLE DEVICE FOR TREATMENT OF VENTRICULAR DILATION - A device and method for reducing ventricular dilation by placing one or more cardiac bridges into vessels extending along a length of the ventricle. Each cardiac bridge preferably includes a pair of anchors and a bridge member secured therebetween. The tension in the bridge member is increased to compress the ventricle and thereby reduce the dilation. In another embodiment, the bridge member is tensioned to reshape the left ventricle for reducing tension on the chordae tendinae in the heart to improve valve function. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090171408 | Intra Cardiac Device, System And Methods - An intra cardiac device is disclosed. The device comprises means for transforming kinetic energy from heart tissue movement into electrical energy in use, from which electrical energy information in respect of heart function is obtainable. Furthermore, a system is disclosed, comprising one such intra cardiac device and at least one receiver, wherein the intra cardiac device comprises means of communication, through which said at least one device communicates with the receiver(s) wirelessly. In this way energy from heart movement provides self contained intra cardiac devices for conveniently monitoring or stimulating a patient's heart. | 07-02-2009 |
| 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 |

The tissue lesion creating device may thus be used for 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. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20090264983 | Device, A Kit And A Method For Treatment Of Disorders In The Heart Rhythm Regulation System - A tissue lesion creating device is structured and arranged to be inserted through the vascular system into a body vessel adjacent the heart and to be subsequently subjected to a change of shape in order to penetrate into the heart tissue. The tissue lesion creating device may thus be used for 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. | 10-22-2009 |
| 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 |
| 20100179633 | Tissue Penetration Device and Method - A medical device for canalization of a tissue of a body portion by penetration thereof, a kit, a manufacturing method and a method of canalization are disclosed. The device is adapted for trans-catheter delivery to the body portion, and comprises a radially expandable and crimpable or collapsible substantially tubular member that has a rear end, a front end, and a pattern of struts or a mesh of wires arranged in-between the rear end and the front end, arranged around an interior of the device. The tubular member has extensions, which are arranged towards the interior of the device in a first state of the device, and towards an exterior of the medical device in a second state of the device, wherein the second state of the medical device is the tubular member turned inside out. During storage, the device is restrained in a delivery catheter in the second state. During delivery the device turns outside in and digs into the tissue to create a channel therein, thus preventing or fixating debris or other matter to spread from the channel. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100185273 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF MITRAL INSUFFICIENCY - A device for treatment of mitral annulus dilatation comprises an elongate body having two states. In a first of these states the elongate body is insertable into the coronary sinus and has a shape adapting to the shape of the coronary sinus. When positioned in the coronary sinus, the elongate body 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. | 07-22-2010 |
