Patent application number | Description | Published |
20100211052 | FORCED DEPLOYMENT SEQUENCE - A fixed sequence activation handle is described that forces a predetermined activation sequence. Such handles are suitable for use in the delivery of medical devices or for other application that require a fixed sequence of activations. | 08-19-2010 |
20120046652 | FORCED DEPLOYMENT SEQUENCE HANDLE ASSEMBLY WITH INDEPENDENT ACTUATING MECHANISM - A handle assembly for use in the deployment of a medical device via a plurality of deployment lines that extend through a catheter. The handle assembly includes a plurality of removable members for deployment or actuation of the medical device. The handle assembly also includes an actuating mechanism for displacing a wire extending through the catheter for actuating the medical device independently of the plurality of removable members. | 02-23-2012 |
20120143302 | MEDICAL APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A catheter assembly includes a catheter having a proximal end and a distal end; an expandable device releasably attached to the catheter near the distal end; a generally tubular constraining sleeve extending around and compressing the device to an outer peripheral dimension suitable for endoluminal delivery; a tip fixedly secured to the distal end of the catheter; and a bridge member disposed between the tip and the expandable device so as to fill a gap therebetween as the catheter assembly is bent during endoluminal delivery of the expandable device to a treatment site. | 06-07-2012 |
20130261726 | FORCED DEPLOYMENT SEQUENCE - A fixed sequence activation handle is described that forces a predetermined activation sequence. Such handles are suitable for use in the delivery of medical devices or for other application that require a fixed sequence of activations. | 10-03-2013 |
20140257246 | MEDICAL APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A catheter assembly includes a catheter having a proximal end and a distal end; an expandable device releasably attached to the catheter near the distal end; a generally tubular constraining sleeve extending around and compressing the device to an outer peripheral dimension suitable for endoluminal delivery; a tip fixedly secured to the distal end of the catheter; and a bridge member disposed between the tip and the expandable device so as to fill a gap therebetween as the catheter assembly is bent during endoluminal delivery of the expandable device to a treatment site. | 09-11-2014 |
20150020640 | FORCED DEPLOYMENT SEQUENCE - A fixed sequence activation handle is described that forces a predetermined activation sequence. Such handles are suitable for use in the delivery of medical devices or for other application that require a fixed sequence of activations. | 01-22-2015 |
20150282881 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A DEPLOYMENT HANDLE OF A MEDICAL DEVICE DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM - An introducer assembly having a handle, at least one fiber operatively coupling at least one handle with one or more functions of the handle; and having a fiber routing system that allows a predetermined amount of slack to be created during assembly in at least one fiber so as to delay by a desired amount of time actuation of the one or more functions of the handle associated with the at least one fiber during operation of the handle. | 10-08-2015 |
20150282964 | DEPLOYMENT HANDLE FOR A MEDICAL DEVICE DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM - An introducer assembly includes a first actuating mechanism for actuating a constraining sheath between a first state releasably constraining a vascular implant and a second state allowing deployment of the vascular implant; a second actuating mechanism for actuating a blocking mechanism between a blocked state for blocking other functions of the handle and an unblocked state for allowing operation of the other functions of the handle; and an operating knob operatively coupled to both of the first and second actuating mechanisms for concurrent operation of both of the first and second actuating mechanisms in response to actuation of the operating knob. | 10-08-2015 |
20150282965 | PORT RETENTION MECHANISM FOR DEPLOYMENT HANDLE OF A MEDICAL DEVICE DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM - A catheter assembly includes a tubular first and second catheters in fluid communication with each other, wherein the second catheter includes a port fitting and can be elastically longitudinally strained to cinch the first and second catheters together. | 10-08-2015 |
