    摘要: Improved embolism protection devices comprises fibers that can have one configuration for delivery of the device and a second configuration in which the device is deployed for filtering of flow within a vessel. In some embodiments, the fibers can be connected to a fiber support, which is connected to an actuating element. The actuating element controls the transition from the delivery configuration to the deployed configuration. The embolism protection device can comprise a guidewire. The fibers can be attached at one end to a fiber support structure and at another end to the guidewire. A hypotube can be attached to the proximal end of the fibers while the guidewire is attached at the distal end of the fibers with the guidewire extending within a central channel of the hypotube. The hypotube can be used to guide the delivery of treatment structures, such as a balloon and/or a stent.

    摘要: Aspiration catheters generally comprise a tube or shaft with an aspiration opening at or near its distal end and a suction device that is at or near the proximal end of the catheter. An aspiration lumen extends from the suction device to the aspiration opening. The aspiration catheter can be associated with an extendable device such that their functions can be combined advantageously. The extendable device can function as a treatment structure and/or as a flow modifier. A treatment structure can be used to expand a constriction in a vessel or to deliver a treatment element into the vessel. A flow modifier generally controls the flow to decrease flow in the vicinity of the aspiration opening to improve the efficiency of the aspiration. Various relationships between the extendable structure and the aspiration catheter are described. Balloons can be used effectively as treatment structures or flow modifiers, although self-extending stents can be used as treatment structures and flaps or the like can be used as flow modifiers.

    摘要: Methods for the removal of an embolism protection device use aspiration during the drawing of the embolism protection device into the catheter. Generally, the embolism protection device comprises a three dimensional filtering matrix that provides improved filtering without blocking the flow through the patient's vessel. In some embodiments, the embolism protection device can be actuated between a deployed configuration and a removal configuration with a reduced area across the cross section of the vessel lumen. The embolism protection device in the removal configuration can be drawn within the aspiration catheter. The aspiration catheter can have a distal portion with an expanded compartment with an average diameter at least about 20 percent larger than the average diameter of the shaft of the catheter within about 10 centimeters of the expanded compartment. In a rapid exchange version, the rapid exchange segment can have a length of at least about 10 centimeters.

    摘要: Embolectomy procedures can be performed under conditions to effectively remove thrombus/emboli with little risk of injuring the vessel wall and while effectively capturing and removing emboli. Desired embolectomy devices present a polymer matrix against the vessel wall. Suction can be used to facilitate the embolectomy process and to remove emboli loosened in the procedure. Some devices combine features to present a polymer matrix against the vessel wall while corresponding providing sufficient support to effectively loosen thrombus. Combinations of embolectomy and/or filter elements can be used.

    摘要: Medical devices with radiopaque three dimensional filtration matrices provide for improved visualization of the device within a vessel. In some embodiments, the three dimensional filtration matrix comprises fibers, such as surface capillary fibers. Visualization of the three dimensional filtration matrix provides for an evaluation of the proper deployment of the three dimensional filtration matrix. Radiopaque surface capillary fibers can be advantageously incorporated into other medical devices. Radiopaque surface capillary fibers can be formed by extrusion of a radiopaque polymer or polymer composite.

    摘要: Thrombectomy catheters are presented that have curved tip portions. A suction lumen extends from at or near the proximal end of the catheter to a suction port at or near the tip portion of the catheter. The curves of the thrombectomy catheter can be selected to place a suction port at or near a vessel wall for the more effective removal of thrombus resulting from directing the suction in the direction of the thrombus. In some embodiments, the tip portion of the catheter can be transitioned from a first configuration for delivery of the catheter into the vessel to a second more curved configuration with a desired design for application of suction. The catheter can be moved in a circumferential and/or lateral direction to cover selected portions of the inner vessel wall. In some embodiments, a partially occlusive structure can be used to reduce and/or redirect flow within the vessel to improve performance of the thrombectomy.
