| 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 |

| 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 |
| 20100113969 | CATHETER HAVING AN AUXILIARY LUMEN FOR USE WITH A FUNCTIONAL MEASUREMENT WIRE - The present invention relates to a surgical catheter, and more particularly, a balloon catheter having an auxiliary lumen configured to permit the advancement of a functional measurement wire to a treatment site. The auxiliary lumen communicates with a working lumen that is configured to permit the advancement of a guidewire and the functional measurement wire, so that the guidewire and functional measurement wire may selectively be advanced to the treatment site during a surgical procedure. | 05-06-2010 |
| 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 |
