摘要： An embolic protection device comprises a collapsible filter body and a filter support for the filter body. The filter support comprises a support frame defined by at least two wire segments having terminations. The terminations of adjacent segments are fixed relative to one another and extend generally parallel in a bifilar manner for enhanced trackability and flexibility.

摘要： An embolic protection device comprises a collapsible filter element for delivery through a vascular system of a patient The filter element comprises a collapsible filter body 2 and a filter support 3 for the filter body. The filter body has an inlet end 4 and an outlet end 5, the inlet end 4 of the filter body has one or more inlet openings 6 sized to allow blood and embolic material enter the filter body 2 and the outlet end 5 of the filter body has a plurality of outlet openings 107 sized to allow through passage of blood but to retain undesired embolic material within the filter body 2. The filter support 3 is movable between a collapsed position for movement through the vascular system, and an extended outwardly projecting position to support the filter body in an expanded position The filter support 3 comprises a generally tubular support frame defined by at least one wire 16.

摘要： A support 103 for an embolic protection device comprises round wires 116 which may form one or more support hoops for a filter body. The circumferential hoop formed by the wires 116 ensures that in the expanded position, the filter body 102 will be supported by the support frame 103 in circumferential apposition with the interior wall of the vasculature. The wires 116 may have a strain distributing linkage element in the form of a loop 120. The loop 120 acts as a diameter or circumference adjuster allowing an embolic protection device to adapt to different Bessel contours and sizes whilst maintaining apposition with the vessel wall. The strain relieving geometry of the loops enhances the compliance of the bend points without creating a weakened hinge point, thus ensuring that there is no discontinuity in the circumferential seal against the vessel wall.

摘要翻译： 用于栓塞保护装置的支撑件103包括圆形线116，其可以形成用于过滤器主体的一个或多个支撑环。 由导线116形成的圆周箍确保在扩展位置中，过滤器主体102将由支撑框架103与脉管系统的内壁周向配合地支撑。 线116可以具有环形120形式的应变分布联动元件。回路120用作直径或周长调节器，允许栓塞保护装置适应不同的贝塞尔轮廓和尺寸，同时保持与血管壁的配合。 环的应变消除几何增加弯曲点的顺应性，而不产生削弱的铰链点，从而确保在围绕血管壁的周向密封中不存在中断。

摘要： An embolic protection device has a support frame incorporating tethering features for connecting the support frame distally and/or proximally and/or intermediately to a carrier. Tethers may also be used additionally or alternatively for connecting various elements of a support frame. The tethers may be used to connect a support hoop 503 to a tubular member 504. The tethers provide added safety and stability to the frame without any increase in the length of the device when wrapped down for delivery.
