Abstract:
An intravascular balloon catheter that may include, for example, a first elongate member having a proximal end, an opening at the distal end and a lumen therebetween, a balloon defining a cavity, the balloon having a proximal waist sealingly attached to the first elongate member proximal the distal end, a distal waist, and a tubular portion therebetween, a second elongate member having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen therebetween, the second elongate member disposed in the first elongate member and sealingly attached to the balloon distal waist, and a stopper attached to the second elongate member and disposed in the balloon cavity distal the distal end of the first elongate member, the stopper having an outer profile that prevents movement of the first elongate member thereover the first elongate member having an inner diameter at the distal end large enough to permit the passage of fluid therethrough over the second elongate member.

Multi-Layer Braided Structures For Occluding Vascular Defects

US Patent:
2007026, Nov 15, 2007
Filed:
Jun 21, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/820841
Inventors:
Kurt Amplatz - St. Paul MN, US
Matt Glimsdale - St. Michael MN, US
Jana Santer - Spring Lake Park MN, US
Derek Wise - New Brighton MN, US
John Oslund - Blaine MN, US
Kent Anderson - Champlin MN, US
Daniel Adams - Long Lake MN, US
Assignee:
AGA Medical Corporation - Plymouth MN
International Classification:
A61M 29/00
US Classification:
606200000
Abstract:
A collapsible medical device and associated methods of occluding an abnormal opening in, for example, a body organ, wherein the medical device is shaped from plural layers of a heat-treatable metal fabric. Each of the fabric layers is formed from a plurality of metal strands and the assembly is heat-treated within a mold in order to substantially set a desired shape of the device. By incorporating plural layers in the thus-formed medical device, the ability of the device to rapidly occlude an abnormal opening in a body organ is significantly improved.
