    Abstract: A flexible structural apparatus which may be used as a wound covering which extends above the wound such that the wound covering does not contact the wound and also protects the wound from contact. The apparatus provides a high degree of flexibility while retaining structural strength and resisting collapse, for example, so as to adequately protect the wound. Various embodiments include parallel beams and connections between beams that alternate in location along the beams to provide flexibility. Some embodiments may be used as springs and may have attachment features, such as holes, which may be located at the end beams, for example.

    Abstract: A laser shock peening process for producing one or more compressive residual stress regions in a medical device is disclosed. A high-energy laser apparatus can be utilized to direct an intense laser beam through a confining medium and onto the target surface of a workpiece. An absorption overlay disposed on the target surface of the workpiece absorbs the laser beam, inducing a pressure shock wave that forms a compressive residual stress region deep within the workpiece. Medical devices such as stents, guidewires, catheters, and the like having one or more of these compressive residual stress regions are also disclosed. The medical device comprises slots to improve bending flexibility. A first portion may have super-elastic properties and a second portion more linear elastic properties obtained by laser shock peening.

    Abstract: A medical device (100) or intravascular device, and methods of use. The devices may be tubular and may have a flexible polymer tip (120). The body (105) may be nitinol and may have cuts part (110) way through along its length to facilitate bending. The device (100) may have a liner (203) which may extend through the tip or form the tip. The device (100) may have markers (122, 123) readily visible on an X-ray viewer during insertion. The tip (120) may have an anti-collapsing (1032, 1333) structure and may be shaped before use to perform a medical procedure such as treating an aneurysm. The device (100) may have a strong fiber (840) through it for complete removal. The method may include selecting the device, bending the tip, setting the shape, and inserting the device into the patient's anatomy. The shape of the tip may be set by heating with steam (1848) and then removing a mandrel (1840).

    Abstract: Medical devices for navigation through anatomy, including guidewires (100), which may have a core wire (150), a slotted tubular member (130), or both. Embodiments may have coils (200; 345; 600; 114 1; 1143; 1243; 2238; 2266; 2441), including non-circular cross-section edge-wound marker coils (200), extended coil tips (300), and soldered or glued mesial joint coils (1141; 1143; 1243). Core wires (150) may have a step (1551; 2151; 2152), ridge (1351), or taper (1253) at the joint (140) to the tubular member (130), and may have a flattened section (1057) at the distal tip (257). Radiopaque material (801; 802) may be located inside the tubular member (130), and the distal tip (138) may be heat treated to make it shapeable. Additional tubular members (730; 2062; 2130; 2162; 2439) or coils (200; 345; 600; 1141; 1143; 1243; 2238; 2266; 2441) may be used concentrically or in line and may enhance flexibility, provide radiopacity, reduce friction, or reduce material or manufacturing cost. Tubular members (130; 730; 2062; 2130; 2162; 2439) may be chamfered (231) or tapered continuously or incrementally. Slots (135) maybe arranged in-groups (235; 1635), such as groups of three (1635), and may be equal in depth or unequal in depth to provide a steerable or compressible tip.
