RELEASE DEVICE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD, AND THERAPEUTIC DEVICE
A release device, system, and method, and a therapeutic device are provided. The release device (100) comprises a power supply assembly (110), a current detector (120), a first timer (130) and a control unit (140). The power consumption of the release circuit and the accumulated time duration over which the current of the release circuit are less than a predetermined current value are used as a determination index of whether the release process is successful or not. Thus, misjudgment caused by current fluctuation can be avoided, and determination accuracy is improved. At the same time, the release system uses a self-loop structure, and therefore no electric discharge needle or electrode need be inserted into the body of a patient during actual use of the device, reducing the suffering of the patient.
DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR TREATING ANEURYSMS
Occlusive devices and associated methods of manufacturing are disclosed herein. Manufacturing an occlusive device can include conforming a mesh to a forming assembly and setting a shape of the mesh based on the forming assembly. In some embodiments, the forming assembly comprises multiple forming members, a mandrel, and/or one or more coupling elements. The method may include everting the mesh over the forming assembly such that the mesh encloses an open volume with a shape based, at least in part, on the shape of the forming assembly. According to some embodiments, setting a shape of the mesh comprises heat-treating the mesh and forming assembly.
DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF INTRACRANIAL ANEURYSMS
Systems and methods for treating an aneurysm in accordance with embodiments of the present technology include intravascularly delivering an occlusive member to an aneurysm cavity and deforming a shape of the occlusive member via introduction of an embolic element to a space between the occlusive member and an inner surface of the aneurysm wall.
Segmented embolic system
A catheter system utilizing one or more sensors is described. The catheter can be used as part of an embolic coil system, guidewire system, or combined embolic coil/guidewire system where the devices interact with the catheter system. A variable detachment embolic coil system and guidewire system are also described.
Vessel Occluder
A vessel occluder used to occlude blood flow within the vasculature is described. The vessel occluder can include an expandable mesh portion having a flexible membrane that expands within a cavity of the expandable mesh portion. When expanded, the flexible membrane blocks blood passage through the mesh portion.
Devices, systems, and methods for treatment of intracranial aneurysms
Systems and methods for treating an aneurysm in accordance with embodiments of the present technology include intravascularly delivering an occlusive member to an aneurysm cavity and deforming a shape of the occlusive member via introduction of an embolic element to a space between the occlusive member and an inner surface of the aneurysm wall.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING ANEURYSMS
Treatment of aneurysms can be improved by delivering an occlusive member (e.g., an expandable braid) to an aneurysm sac in conjunction with an embolic element (e.g., coils, embolic material). A treatment system for such treatment can include an electrolytically corrodible conduit having a proximal portion, a distal portion, and a detachment zone between the proximal portion and the distal portion. An occlusive member having a proximal hub is coupled to the conduit distal portion. The conduit has a lumen configured to pass an embolic element therethrough.
Segmented Embolic System
A catheter system utilizing one or more sensors is described. The catheter can be used as part of an embolic coil system, guidewire system, or combined embolic coil/guidewire system where the devices interact with the catheter system. A variable detachment embolic coil system and guidewire system are also described.
FILAMENTARY DEVICES FOR TREATMENT OF VASCULAR DEFECTS
Devices and methods for treatment of a patient's vasculature may include a resilient self-expanding permeable implant having a plurality of elongate filaments secured in a hub at a proximal end of the permeable implant. Each of the plurality of elongate filaments may have a diameter between about 0.0005 and about 0.005 inches. The implant includes at least some filaments consisting of nitinol and at least some composite filaments that are drawn filled tube wires comprising an external nitinol tube and a radiopaque material concentrically disposed within the external tube. The implant has at least about 40% composite filaments relative to a total number of filaments, and wherein a total number of filaments is about 10 to about 300.
Aneurysm treatment device
Treatment of aneurysms can be improved by use of a treatment system including a conduit have a distal portion, a coupler slidably coupled to the distal portion, an occlusive member coupled to the coupler, and a securing member coupled to the conduit proximal to the coupler. The securing member can include a distal end portion that is removably coupled to the coupler. In some embodiments, the securing member can have a shape and/or be treated such that the securing member self-expands to decouple itself from the coupler during deployment of the occlusive member. In some embodiments, movement of the conduit relative to the coupler causes the securing member to decouple from the coupler.
