Catheters Having Rapid-Exchange And Over-The-Wire Operating Modes

View page
US Patent:
6458099, Oct 1, 2002
Filed:
Aug 14, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/929407
Inventors:
Debashis Dutta - Santa Clara CA
Cindy Nguyen - San Jose CA
Eugene Serina - Menlo Park CA
Kristin E. Welborn - Santa Clara CA
Assignee:
Advanced Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
A61M 2900
US Classification:
60410304, 604 9601
Abstract:
An intravascular catheter capable of both rapid-exchange and over-the-wire modes of operation having a relatively long proximal shaft portion, a relatively short distal section and an intermediate shaft section, which connects the proximal shaft section and the distal shaft section. In one embodiment, the intermediate shaft section includes a guide wire port and a first guide wire lumen which extends throughout both the intermediate and distal shaft section, and a second guide wire lumen which extends throughout the entire catheter shaft. In another embodiment, the intermediate shaft section includes a y-lumen junction which allows a first guide wire lumen introduced at the intermediate shaft section and a second guide wire lumen extending from the proximal end of the catheter shaft throughout the proximal shaft section to merge and communicate with a single distal guide wire lumen which extends from the intermediate shaft section to the distal end of the catheter shaft. In another embodiment, the catheter shaft includes a single guide wire lumen extending from the proximal end to the distal end wherein the guide wire lumen is defined by a proximal section and a distal section. The proximal section guide wire lumen includes a slit which allows a guide wire to be removed for rapid-exchange mode of operation or retained for over-the-wire mode of operation.

Method And Apparatus For Forming A Catheter Balloon

US Patent:
6514450, Feb 4, 2003
Filed:
Dec 21, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/469743
Inventors:
Chicheng Wang - Sunnyvale CA
Eugene R. Serina - Menlo Park CA
Assignee:

264513, 264138, 264154, 264155, 264162
Abstract:
A method for medical balloon fabrication comprising the steps of securing a balloon with a mold by inflating it and then enlarging the inner diameter of the balloon. The devices of the invention comprise a fixture with a mold configured to hold the inflated balloon and a drill that can be centered with the mold to enlarge the inner diameter of the balloon.

Vascular Prosthesis

View page
US Patent:
6916336, Jul 12, 2005
Filed:
Jun 9, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/458770
Inventors:
Udayan Patel - San Jose CA, US
Eugene R. Serina - Union City CA, US
Assignee:
Avantec Vascular Corporation - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
A61F002/06
US Classification:
623 116, 623 237, 623 115
Abstract:
Luminal prostheses comprise adjacent expansible segments, typically serpentine ring segments joined by sigmoidal links. By properly orienting the sigmoidal links and aligning hinge regions on adjacent serpentine rings, enhanced performance can be obtained.

Deflectable Guide

View page
US Patent:
8096985, Jan 17, 2012
Filed:
May 7, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/437495
Inventors:
Marlone Legaspi - Fremont CA, US
Huu Nguyen - San Jose CA, US
Eugene Serina - Union City CA, US
Assignee:
Guided Delivery Systems Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
A61M 25/00
US Classification:
604525, 604523, 604532, 604528
Abstract:
Described herein are devices and methods for guide catheters having one or more regions of increased flexibility. A flexibility region comprises one tubular segment of the guide catheter with a non-linear longitudinal seam between two non-concentric layers of material having different durometers. A non-linear seam, such as a zig-zag or sinusoidal configuration, permits controlled compression of lower durometer material between portions of higher durometer material.

Methods And Devices For Catheter Advancement And Delivery Of Substances Therethrough

View page
US Patent:
8388680, Mar 5, 2013
Filed:
Oct 18, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/583627
Inventors:
Niel F. Starksen - Los Altos Hills CA, US
Karl S. Im - Palo Alto CA, US
Mariel Fabro - San Jose CA, US
Eugene Serina - Union City CA, US
Anne T. Meier - Santa Clara CA, US
Assignee:
Guided Delivery Systems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
A61F 2/24
A61M 31/00
US Classification:
623 211, 604508, 604510
Abstract:
Methods and devices for successively advancing a plurality of catheters over a guide element to a body tissue are described. In some of the methods, the guide element may be attached to the body tissue, which may be accessible minimally invasively. In certain variations, the guide element may not be detached from the body tissue after the catheters have been advanced over the guide element. The methods may further comprise deploying at least one implant from at least one of the plurality of catheters. In some variations, a method may comprise advancing a first delivery catheter to a first region of a body tissue, deploying a first anchor from the first delivery catheter, where the first anchor is attached to a guide element, proximally withdrawing the first delivery catheter, advancing a second delivery catheter over the guide element, and deploying a second anchor from the second delivery catheter.

Multi-Window Guide Tunnel

View page
US Patent:
20090222083, Sep 3, 2009
Filed:
Feb 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/366553
Inventors:
Huu NGUYEN - San Jose CA, US
Son Nguyen - San Jose CA, US
Eugene Serina - Union City CA, US
Tammy Y. Tam - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Guided Delivery Systems Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/03
A61F 2/24
US Classification:
623 211, 606232
Abstract:
Described herein are devices and methods for delivering implants that comprise multiple coupled anchors. The anchors are secured to tissue using a multi-opening guide tunnel that is configured to releasably retain one or more portions of the implant located between two of the anchors. The releasable retention of one or more intervening portions of the implant maintains the position of the implant and the guide tunnel until the implant is secured to the tissue. The multi-opening guide tunnel permits securement of the multiple anchors without requiring repositioning of the guide tunnel for each anchor.

US Patent:
20090234318, Sep 17, 2009
Filed:
Oct 17, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/253792
Inventors:
Didier LOULMET - New York NY, US
Niel F. Starksen - Los Altos Hills CA, US
Mariel Fabro - San Jose CA, US
Eugene Serina - Union City CA, US
Assignee:
Guided Delivery Systems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
A61M 31/00
A61F 2/24
US Classification:
604500, 623 236
Abstract:
Described herein are devices and methods for improving the hemodynamic function of a patient. In particular, a first device adapted to reshape an atrio-ventricular valve is used in combination with a second device configured to further alter the blood flow through the valve. The first device is typically an implant positioned in the subvalvular space of a ventricle. The second device may be an annuloplasty implant, a non-annulus valve apparatus implant, a ventriculoplasty implant, or a cardiac rhythm management device.
