    摘要: Improved methods, systems and devices for occluding body passageways, particularly lung passageways. Such occlusion is achieved with occlusal stents which are particularly suited for use in performing Endobronchial Volume Reduction (EVR) in patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other conditions where isolation of a lung segment or reduction of lung volume is desired. The present invention is likewise suitable for the treatment of bronchopleural fistula and potentially for other pulmonary diseases, such as hemoptysis and pneumothorax. The occlusal stents are delivered with the use of any suitable delivery system, particularly minimally invasive with instruments introduced through the mouth (endotracheally). A target lung tissue segment is isolated from other regions of the lung by deploying an occlusal stent into a target area of a lung passageway. A variety of different occlusal stent designs are provided to improve the performance and reliability of the delivered occlusal stent.

    摘要: Minimally invasive methods, systems and devices are provided for assessing collateral ventilation in the lungs. In particular, collateral ventilation of a target compartment within a lung of a patient is assessed by advancement of a catheter through the tracheobronchial tree to a feeding airway of the target compartment. The feeding airway is occluded by the catheter and the opening and closing of a one-way valve coupled with the catheter is observed. If the valve ceases opening and closing over time, this may indicate that significant collateral ventilation into the target compartment is absent. If the valve continues to open and close over time, significant collateral ventilation into the compartment may be present. Based on the collateral ventilation assessment, a treatment plan may be generated.

    摘要: Methods, systems and devices are provided for performing lung volume reduction in patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other conditions where isolation of a lung segment or reduction of lung volume is desired. The methods are minimally invasive with instruments being introduced through the mouth (endotracheally) and rely on isolating the target lung tissue segment from other regions of the lung and occluding various lung passageways with the use of occlusal stents. The occlusal stents are delivered with the use of an occlusal stent delivery system which is loaded with the occlusal stent with the use of an occlusal stent loading system.
