    摘要: A stent comprised of a scaffolding structure having components configured to allow at least a portion of the stent to decrease in diameter in response to an axial force applied to the stent. Further, the components and elements of the stent may be configured to balance transverse forces applied to the stent, thus reducing the incidence of infolding.

    摘要: A reversible lockable drainage catheter for use in draining excess bodily fluid in a tissue having a catheter tube with a proximal end and a distal end, and a lockable hub positioned about the catheter tube. A suture of the drainage catheter can be reversibly tensioned, and locked in the tensioned conformation by depressing one or more surfaces of the lockable hub. The suture can then be released also by depressing one or more surface of the lockable hub, or by implementing one or more additional safety release mechanisms. For example, a safety release can be pulled in a proximal direction to release a tensioned suture. Similarly, the suture can be tensioned to a point that stretches an attachment point of the drainage catheter tube, and also causes the suture and safety release mechanism to disengage.

    摘要: A removable stent (10) for placement within a portion of the anatomy of a patient is provided. The stent (10) includes a scaffolding having struts (12,14) that is configured to define a substantially cylindrical member having a proximal end and a distal end. The stent also includes a suture (16) intertwined about at least a portion of the struts, wherein the suture (16) includes at least one loop (18) such that a force applied to the loop (18) does not result in purse-stringing. Additionally a second suture (16) may pass circumferentally through the loops (18). Applying a force on the second suture (16) causes the stent (10) to reduce in diameter.

    摘要: The present invention, in an exemplary embodiment, provides a delivery system and novel handle configuration for the delivery system that facilitates repeatable placement of implantable devices. In particular, in optical embodiments, the handle allows for the reversible coupling of scopes directly to the handle to enhance physician control during placement. The delivery system also allows for one-handed manipulation as finger action can be used to engage and disengage the scope as well as actuate the extent of implantable device deployment. Exemplary delivery systems are flexible, durable and/or assure proper installation of one or more implantable devices in a single procedure. Moreover, the preferred embodiments of the delivery system provides for the reloading of the delivery device with additional implantable devices for additional interventional procedures, resulting in a substantially reusable delivery device.
