20230046775 · 2023-02-16 ·

Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, engaging an interventional device of a catheter system with clot material in a blood vessel and withdrawing the interventional device and the portion of the clot material through a guide catheter. In some embodiments, the catheter system can include an attachment/valve member coupled to a proximal portion of the guide catheter, and the method can include unsealing the attachment/valve member to facilitate withdrawing the interventional device through the attachment/valve member without significant retention of clot material within the attachment/valve member. The method can further include resealing and aspirating the guide catheter before advancing another interventional device to the clot material to again engage and remove clot material from the blood vessel.

ISOVOLUMETRIC PUMP AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREOF
20230047991 · 2023-02-16 ·

The disclosure provides for an isovolumetric pump system for the removal of a thrombus and a method of use thereof. The isovolumetric pump system includes at least one inflow container connected to an output of the treatment region, at least one outflow container connected to an input of the treatment region, and a drawbar connecting the inflow container and the outflow container. As the drawbar is drawn back, the same quantity of fluid is drawn from the treatment region into the inflow container and injected into the treatment region from the outflow container.

THROMBECTOMY METHODS

Methods and apparatuses for removing material (e.g., clot) from within a body, including inverting thrombectomy apparatuses. These methods and apparatuses may include methods and apparatuses for reusing portion of the devices, method and apparatuses for loading and reloading the inverting thrombectomy apparatuses, and methods and apparatuses for improving and enhancing the ability of the inverting thrombectomy apparatuses to remove clot. In particular, described herein are expandable scraper devices that may be used in conjunction with the inverting thrombectomy apparatuses descried herein, or on their own.

MANUAL SUCTION DEVICE FOR THROMBUS CAPTURE AND REPERFUSION

A medical device is adapted for use in assisting with mechanical thrombectomy. The medical device may include a housing that is adapted to be held within a user's hand and a pump that is secured within the housing. A fluid inlet is adapted to receive fluid that is pulled towards the pump and is fluidly coupled with the pump. A fluid outlet is adapted to expel fluid away from the pump and is fluidly coupled with the pump. As the pump is operated by the user, fluid is alternatively pulled into the fluid inlet and expelled through the fluid outlet. In some cases, the fluid may be blood or other bodily fluids.

ROBOTICALLY DRIVEN INTERVENTIONAL DEVICE
20230048388 · 2023-02-16 ·

A robotically driven interventional device includes an elongate, flexible body, having a proximal end and a distal end; a hub on the proximal end; at least one rotatable roller on a first surface of the hub; and at least one magnet on the first surface of the hub.

11576691 · 2023-02-14 · ·

Described are methods, systems, devices for facilitation of intraluminal medical procedures within the neurovasculature. A catheter advancement device includes a flexible elongate body having a proximal end, a distal end, and a single lumen extending therebetween. The flexible elongate body has a proximal segment, an intermediate segment, and a tip segment. The proximal segment includes a hypotube coated with a polymer. The intermediate segment includes an unreinforced polymer having a durometer of no more than 72D. The tip segment is formed of a polymer different from the intermediate segment and has a durometer of no more than about 35D and a length of at least 5 cm. The tip segment has a tapered portion that tapers distally from a first outer diameter to a second outer diameter over a length of between 1 and 3 cm.

Embolectomy devices and methods for treatment of acute ischemic stroke condition

Clot engagement element comprising bundle of unwoven fibers can be assembled to form an acute stroke treatment device. The device has the capability of forming a three dimensional filtration matrix comprising effective pores with a distribution of sizes. The bundle of fiber design allows the device to be effectively delivered into circuitous cerebral arteries to remove clot that causes stroke. The fiber bundle based filtration matrix offers the advantages of conforming to the changing inner perimeter of a blood vessel during a clot removal process and thus the capability to effectively retain and remove a clot in the vessel. The filtration matrix offers the additional advantage to trap any break-off of the clot during the removal process. A plurality of fiber bundles can be combined to form an effective clot engagement element. Supplemental engagement structure as well as mechanical treatment structure can be integrated into the stroke treatment device. The deployment of the fiber based elements can be facilitated by actuation tool. Aspiration can be employed during the clot removal process.

CONTINUOUS SUCTION AND REPERFUSION MECHANISM,

A suction device configured to simultaneously draw in fluid and expel fluid. The suction device may comprise a barrel defining a cavity and extending from a first end to a second end. A first fluid inlet may be adjacent the first end of the barrel and a second fluid inlet adjacent the second end of the barrel and a first fluid outlet may be adjacent the first end of the barrel and a second fluid outlet adjacent the second end of the barrel. A plunger may be slideably disposed within the cavity of the barrel with a handle assembly operably coupled thereto. A actuation of the handle assembly may be configured to move the plunger within the cavity between the first end and the second end of the barrel.

System for treating embolism and associated devices and methods

Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, positioning a distal portion of a catheter proximate to the clot material within the blood vessel. The method can further include coupling a pressure source to the catheter via a tubing subsystem including a valve or other fluid control device and, while the valve is closed, activating the pressure source to charge a vacuum. The valve can then be opened to apply the vacuum to the catheter to thereby aspirate at least a portion of the clot material from the blood vessel and into the catheter.
