Methods and devices for performing transjugular carotid flow reversal are provided. A flow reversal sheath is advanced through a transjugular carotid fistula. An occlusion balloon is inflated, causing carotid inflow to be diverted through the sheath and through a flow reversal region positioned in the jugular vein. After reversal of blood flow, a carotid intervention is performed.

Carotid artery embolic protection method using percutaneous transjugular carotid flow reversal

Methods and devices for treating occlusive peripheral vascular diseases are described. The devices can include an access catheter having a guidewire lumen and stylet lumen, a guide tube having a curved distal end, a stylet, and an actuator handle. The methods describe techniques for using the described devices for performing vascular procedures, such as subintimal angioplasty.

Methods and devices for vascular access

A method of providing retrograde perfusion of a patient's brain includes occluding a jugular vein of a subject at a jugular occlusion location, and passively shunting arterial blood from an artery of the subject to a location in the jugular vein distal to the jugular occlusion location.

Systems and methods for retrograde perfusion and clearance of emboli

The present invention relates to methods of transvascular retrograde access placement and to devices that facilitate these methods. For purposes of the present invention, transvascular retrograde access placement generally comprises the insertion of a vascular catheter into a central blood vessel through the puncturing of the central blood vessel from the inside of the central blood vessel with a needle or other similarly configured device, or a needle-tipped guidewire of the present invention, and exiting that needle from the patient through the skin rather than the traditional approach of inserting a needle from the outside of the skin surface to the inside of a blood vessel.

Devices for transvascular retrograde access placement

Methods, devices, and kits for implanting a vascular graft to perform hemodialysis treatments on patients with renal failure are disclosed. The kits can include access devices comprised of an access catheter having a guidewire lumen and stylet lumen, a guide tube having a curved distal end, a stylet, an actuator handle and a vascular graft. The methods describe techniques for using the described kits and devices for performing vascular procedures, such as percutaneous implantation of the vascular graft.

Methods and devices for percutaneous implantation of arterio-venous grafts

Methods and devices for trans-jugular carotid access are disclosed. Methods within the scope of this disclosure include methods of trans-jugular carotid access originating in the leg of a patient or other location remote to the jugular vein and carotid artery and methods originating at the neck of a patient. Devices used in connection with the disclosed methods may comprise access catheters, lumens, and stylets.

Trans-jugular carotid artery access methods

Devices and methods using percutaneous transjugular carotid flow reversal

A system for accessing arterial vasculature from a venous insertion site includes a first elongate tubular member, a second elongate tubular member configured to be disposed within a lumen of the first elongate tubular member, an elongate crossing member including a distal tip comprising a frusto-conical outer surface, and configured to be disposed within a first lumen of the second elongate tubular member, and a stylet configured to be disposed within a lumen of the elongate crossing member, wherein placement of the second elongate tubular member, elongate crossing member, and stylet together through the lumen of the first elongate tubular member does not substantially straighten a curved distal portion of the first elongate tubular member, and wherein the elongate crossing member and stylet are removable from the first lumen of the second elongate tubular member when it is within the lumen of the first elongate tubular member with at least its distal end extending out of the first elongate tubular member.

Systems and methods for vascular access

Various methods employing transvascular access devices are described, including a method of placing a central catheter in a peripheral vein in an arm of a patient; a method of providing percutaneous access to the heart of a patient; a method of clearing a clotted arteriovenous dialysis graft; a method of creating multiple access points into a single blood vessel; a method of creating an AV fistula in a patient; and a method of providing a bypass to a blockage in a popliteal artery in a patient.
