A medical system is disclosed that has three basic components; a retractable sheet, a first balloon that has a centrally arranged hollow, and a collapsible/expandable support structure at the hollow. The first balloon is for instance mounted/molded onto the exterior surface of the support structure. The aggregate of support structure and the first balloon is positioned, and once the sheet has been retracted from the first balloon, the first balloon is inflated. The support structure may be self-expandable or expandable by an expansion unit, such as a further balloon arranged at its inside. The lumen of the support structure is chosen to be smaller than that of a main lumen. The outside diameter of the inflated first balloon is chosen to be larger than the interior diameter of the main lumen.

Medical device, method and system for temporary occlusion of an opening in a lumen of a body

A medical device and method for closure of a puncture in a body lumen are disclosed. The device has an aggregate () of a support structure () and a substantially fluid tight patch member () attached thereto at an attachment unit (). The aggregate has a first, temporary delivery shape, for delivery to an interior of said body lumen and to be subsequently subjected to a change of shape to a second shape, which is a tubular shape. When delivered in said body lumen, the patch member is arranged radially outside of said tubular support structure and arranged towards an inner tissue wall of the body lumen. The aggregate is the detached from a delivery device and said puncture is intraluminally closed in a leakage tight manner, advantageously supported by a physiological pressure of a body fluid in said body lumen. Rotational orientation is detectable by fiducial markers. A compact delivery cinfiguration is provided by the patch being attached to the support structure at a single radial attachement position only.

Device and method for closure of a body lumen

A catheter () based medical system () and medical procedure for reducing cardiac valve regurgitation are disclosed. The system comprises a resilient curvilinear shaped annuloplasty implant () for reducing the size of a dilated annulus () of said valve for reducing said regurgitation having resilient anchoring elements (), and a delivery device () for said annuloplasty implant () having a distal curvilinear shaped portion () that is hollow to mount said annuloplasty implant () and has an annular opening () arranged to be in apposition against an annulus () of said cardiac valve. The annuloplasty implant () is arranged to be releasable in said hollow and has said resilient anchoring elements () arranged in a restrained spring loaded delivery conformation in said hollow, and wherein said resilient anchoring elements () when released are arranged in a tissue engaging conformation protruding out of said opening.

Device and method for reducing cardiac valve regurgitation

A catheter device and method are disclosed for transvascular delivery of a medical device to a cardiac valve region of a patient. The catheter device comprises an elongate sheath with a lumen and a distal end for positioning at a target site e.g. a heart valve.

Catheter device and method for delivery of medical devices in the aorta

A catheter () based medical system () and medical procedure for reducing cardiac valve regurgitation are disclosed. The system comprises a resilient curvilinear shaped annuloplasty implant () for reducing the size of a dilated annulus () of said valve for reducing said regurgitation having resilient anchoring elements (), and a delivery device () for said annuloplasty implant () having a distal curvilinear shaped portion () that is hollow to mount said annuloplasty implant () and has an annular opening () arranged to be in apposition against an annulus () of said cardiac valve. A plurality of suction units allows for a atrial approach and symmetric implantation of said implant.

Delivery device for medical implant and medical procedure

An embolic protection device, kit, and medical procedure prevent embolic material from entering into side branch vessels of the aortic arch. The device is a collapsible embolic protection device devised for temporary transvascular delivery to an aortic arch of a patient and has a protection unit that comprises a selectively permeable unit adapted to prevent embolic material from passage with a blood flow into a plurality of aortic side branch vessels at the aortic arch. The protection unit is permanently attached to a transvascular delivery unit and a first support member that is at least partly arranged at a periphery of the selectively permeable unit. In an expanded state of the device, the connection point is enclosed by the first support member or arranged at said support member.

Temporary embolic protection device and medical procedure for delivery thereof

A medical procedure for positioning an embolic protection device effectively prevents material from entering with blood flow into side branch vessels of the aortic arch. The protection unit is permanently attached to a transvascular delivery unit at a connection point at a support frame that is at least partly arranged at a periphery of a selectively permeable unit. In an expanded state of the device, the connection point is enclosed by the support member or arranged at said support member.

Device, kit and method for closure of a body lumen puncture

A wound drainage and hemostasis promoting medical device () are disclosed. A balloon () is temporary inflated and arranged outside a sheath (), in contact with tissue surrounding a wound cavity for hemostasis promotion. The drainage device comprises a fluid communication channel for wound exudate from wound. The balloon is deflated and retracted into said sheath for removal from said wound cavity. Thus the medical device is percutaneously retractable from said confined wound.

Post operative wound support device

An embolic protection device and medical procedure for positioning the device in the aortic arch is disclosed. The device and method effectively prevent material from entering with blood flow into side branch vessels of the aortic arch. The device is a collapsible embolic protection device devised for temporary transvascular delivery to an aortic arch of a patient, wherein the device has a protection unit that comprises a selectively permeable unit adapted to prevent embolic material from passage with a blood flow into a plurality of aortic side branch vessels at the aortic arch. The protection unit is permanently attached to a transvascular delivery unit at a connection point provided at the selectively permeable unit, and a first support member for the protection unit that is at least partly arranged at a periphery of the selectively permeable unit. In an expanded state of the device, the connection point is enclosed by the first support member or arranged at said support member.
