Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices for delivering artificial chordae tendineae in a patient. A system for adjusting tension in an artificial chordae tendineae includes an artificial chordae tendineae coupleable between a clip and an anchor. The clip is engageable with a leaflet of a heart valve while the anchor is engageable with a papillary muscle or heart wall. The anchor includes a body portion, and a locking portion coupleable with the artificial chordae tendineae and configured to allow movement of the artificial chordae tendineae in a first direction while preventing movement of the artificial chordae tendineae in a second direction opposite the first direction. An actuator is coupled to the locking portion for selectively releasing the locking portion to enable selective movement of the artificial chordae tendineae in the second direction.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices for clamping a leaflet of a heart valve. In particular, the present disclosure relates to medical devices, systems, and methods for delivering artificial chordae tendineae in a patient. In an embodiment, a system may include a clamp having a plurality of arms at a first end. The plurality of arms may have a closed configuration in which the arms are oriented toward each other, and an open configuration in which the arms are oriented away from each other. A spring portion may be coupled to the plurality of arms at a second end that is configured to bias the arms to the closed configuration. The arms of the clamp may be configured to fixedly engage with a leaflet of the heart valve. The second end of the clamp may be configured to couple to an artificial chordae tendineae.

Abstract: A medical device may include a plurality of links reciprocally movable between a loose configuration having a first rigidity and a compact configuration having a second rigidity greater than the first rigidity, wherein application of a force to a distalmost link of the plurality of links when the plurality of links are in the loose configuration causes the plurality of links to change orientation relative to one another, and application of the force to the distalmost link when the plurality of links are in the compact configuration does not cause the plurality of links to change orientation relative to one another.

Abstract: An example method for treating a blood vessel may include disposing a medical device within the blood vessel at a position adjacent to a lesion. The medical device may include an elongate shaft having a distal end region, a balloon coupled to the distal end region, and an iron-containing fluid disposed within the balloon. The method may also include inflating the balloon to a first pressure, delivering a plurality of electromagnetic pulses to the iron-containing fluid, and inflating the balloon to a second pressure greater than the first pressure.

Abstract: An aortic arch embolic protection device may include an anchoring structure including a first anchoring ring at an upstream end and a second anchoring ring at a downstream end. A first filter element may extend from the first anchoring ring to the second anchoring ring and define a lumen through the aortic arch embolic protection device. A second filter element may be disposed within the lumen of the first filter element, wherein the second filter element includes an access port configured to facilitate passage of an interventional catheter through the access port. The anchoring structure may include a tubular scaffold extending from the first anchoring ring to the second anchoring ring. The second filter element may extend from the second anchoring ring upstream to the access port. The second filter element may extend transversely across the lumen of the first filter element at a plurality of axial locations.

Abstract: A catheter for ablating cardiac tissue through irreversible electroporation includes a tubular shaft and an electrode assembly extending distally from a tubular shaft. The electrode assembly defines a distally located flexible central hub portion and flexible splines. A distal ablation electrode includes a hub portion and ablation electrode radial segments. Each ablation electrode radial segment includes a first series of gaps and a second series of gaps. The first series of gaps are spaced from one another along a length of the ablation electrode radial segment and extend partially across the width of the ablation electrode radial segment from a first longitudinal side toward a second longitudinal side. The second series of gaps are spaced from one another along the length of the ablation electrode radial segment and extend partially across the width of the ablation electrode radial segments from the second longitudinal side toward the first longitudinal side.
