    摘要: Sympathetic nerves run through the adventitia surrounding renal arteries and are critical in the modulation of systemic hypertension. Hyperactivity of these nerves can cause renal hypertension, a disease prevalent in 30-40% of the adult population. Hypertension can be treated with neuromodulating agents (such as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II inhibitors, or aldosterone receptor blockers), but requires adherence to strict regimens and often does not reach target blood pressure threshold to reduce risk of major cardiovascular events. A minimally invasive solution is presented here to reduce the activity of the sympathetic nerves surrounding the renal artery by locally delivering neurotoxic or sympathetic nerve-blocking agents into the adventitia. Extended elution of these agents may also be accomplished in order to tailor the therapy to the patient.

    摘要: A device for interventional surgical or medical procedures is presented. The device is generally in the form of a balloon and is used to position itself or other working elements up against or through lumen walls in the body. The balloon is comprised of at least two materials of different elastic modulus, which allows for a flexible but relatively non-distensible, unfolding component of the balloon as well as an elastomeric, inflatable component of the balloon. The elastomeric component is fixedly attached to the flexible but relatively non-distensible component and together they form a pressure vessel that can be inflated within the lumens of the body.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are methods, devices, systems, and kits for reducing inflammation and rate of progression to post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) in individuals who have experienced venous thrombosis. Provided herein are approaches for local delivery of therapeutic agents to reduce inflammation and resolve clotting in affected veins in limbs. A catheter is positioned within the affected vein, and a composition comprising one or more therapeutic agents is injected into the perivenous tissue through the wall of the vein. The puncturing to inject may be achieved by an expanding balloon on the distal end of the catheter.

    摘要: Methods and kits for delivering pharmaceutical agents to an adventitia and other regions outside an external elastic lamina (EEL) surrounding a blood vessel utilize a catheter having a needle. The needle is positioned in up to 5 mm beyond the EEL and delivers an amount of a pharmaceutical agent sufficient to circumferentially permeate around the blood vessel and, in many cases, extend longitudinally and radially along the blood vessel. Confirmation that a delivery aperture of the needle lies beyond the EEL may be required before delivering the pharmaceutical agent. In one example, catheters are used to deliver dexamethasone and other anti-inflammatory agents to a peripheral vasculature and other vasculature to treat peripheral vascular disease and other conditions.
