Abstract: A medical stent includes an inner metallic tubular member including a plurality of interconnected struts defining the inner metallic tubular member, and an outer metallic tubular member circumferentially surrounding the inner tubular member. The outer metallic tubular member includes one or more filaments knitted together in a plurality of loops that together form the outer metallic tubular member. The outer metallic tubular member is secured relative to the inner metallic tubular member. The inner tubular member exerts a radially outward force on the outer tubular member in a radially expanded configuration.

Abstract: Embodiments in the present disclosure relate to an anchoring and centering device for a circulatory support pump. An exemplary apparatus comprises an expandable anchoring device extending along a longitudinal axis, wherein the expandable anchoring device is arranged about a central axis. A distal portion of the expandable anchoring device defines an annulus through which the cardiac pump can be arranged and to which the cardiac pump can be releasable coupled. A proximal portion of the expandable anchoring device is configured to circumferentially expand to an unconstrained configuration that has a cross-sectional diameter greater than a diameter of the annulus. The exemplary apparatus also includes a constraining member arranged over the expandable anchoring device to constrain the expandable anchoring device in a constrained configuration for delivery of the anchoring apparatus.

Abstract: A thrombectomy apparatus for removing a clot from a vessel includes a catheter defining a lumen extending proximally from a distal end. A funnel is secured to the distal end and extends distally therefrom, the funnel includes a braided inner layer and a braided outer layer, the braided outer layer folded over the braided inner layer and adapted to constrain the braided inner layer. A tractor is adapted to extend over an outer surface of the catheter and the funnel in an un-inverted configuration and to extend in an inverted configuration through the funnel and into the lumen, the tractor adapted to invert by rolling over the distal end of the funnel when the tractor moves proximally. A puller extends through the lumen and is secured to an end of the tractor disposed within the lumen.

Abstract: An endoprosthesis for preventing collapse of a vein may include an expandable framework configured to shift between a radially collapsed configuration and a radially expanded configuration, and a plurality of anchoring legs extending axially away from a first end of the expandable framework. The plurality of anchoring legs may be configured to shift between a delivery configuration and a deployed configuration. In the deployed configuration, the plurality of anchoring legs may be configured to extend radially outward of the expandable framework in the radially expanded configuration. A system for preventing collapse of a vein may include a delivery catheter having a lumen, an endoprosthesis disposable within a distal portion of the lumen in a radially collapsed configuration, and at least one filament coupled to the plurality of anchor legs of the endoprosthesis and extending within the lumen of the delivery catheter.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a circulatory support device with an integrated cannula. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus for attachment to a cardiac pump, comprises an adaptor. The adaptor comprises an annular cross section configured to receive the cardiac pump. The annular cross section is secured to the cardiac pump. The adaptor also comprises a plurality of channels arranged around the adapter and a cannula comprising a proximal portion, a distal portion, and an intermediate portion comprising a braided mesh extending between the distal portion and the proximal portion. The proximal portion has a proximal end comprising a plurality of elements arranged through the channels and the distal portion comprises a plurality of wires and a tip element. The plurality of wires extend in a distal direction from the braided mesh to the tip element and are secured to the tip element. And, a coating covers at least a portion of the braided mesh.

Abstract: Devices and methods for assisting blood flow are provided. The device includes a housing with an inlet and an outlet, and a fluid barrier separating the housing into a first section containing the inlet and outlet, and a second section. The device also includes an impeller shaft coupled to an impeller and a first magnet in the first section of the housing, and a drive shaft coupled to a second magnet in the second section of the housing. The first and second magnets are arranged such that rotation of the drive shaft rotates the second magnet causing rotation of the first magnet, which drives the impeller.

Abstract: Catheter and methods for designing, making, and using catheters are disclosed. An example catheter is a balloon catheter. The balloon catheter may include a proximal shaft. The proximal shaft may be a bare metal hypotube having a skew value of −1.0 to −2.5. A midshaft may be attached to the proximal shaft. A distal shaft may be attached to the midshaft. A balloon may be coupled to the distal shaft. An inflation lumen may be defined that extends from the proximal shaft, through the midshaft, and into the distal shaft. The inflation lumen may be in fluid communication with the balloon.
