A blood flow regulator for creating a shunt in the heart, comprising; a proximal element having a general disc-shape, defined by a braid of one or more wires extending about a central aperture of the proximal element; a distal element having a general disc-shape, defined by a braid of one or more wires extending about a central aperture of the distal element; and a third element defining a neck section intermediate the proximal and distal elements and forming a cavity having a diameter no greater than a diameter of each of the distal and proximal elements, wherein said distal element comprises at least one loop of a wire extending radially outwardly from a center of the distal element and returning towards said center of said distal element.

Flow regulating device in the heart

A medical occlusion device with proximal and distal portions separated by a connecting member. The proximal and distal portions are shaped to reduce the occurrence of paravalvular leakage by including a peripheral edge that is characterized by rounded corners.

Medical implantable occlusion device, and method for implantation thereof

A medical implantable occlusion device is disclosed comprising a fabric of at least one thread and a structural formation thereof having a collapsed and an expanded shape, the formation comprises a proximal and a distal portion, a longitudinal axis extending between the proximal and distal portion, wherein at least one of the proximal and distal portions comprises a peripheral edge having a first and a second radius of curvature in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, wherein the first radius of curvature is different from the second radius of curvature.

A medical implantable occlusion device () is disclosed comprising a braiding () of at least one thread, the braiding having an unloaded relaxed state and a stretched state and comprising an expanded diameter portion () spanning a distal surface () forming the distal end () of said device, wherein the braiding is continuous at the distal surface, a tubular member () extending along a longitudinal axis (), the tubular member having a distal portion () transitioning into the expanded diameter portion and an opposite proximal portion (), wherein the tubular member is tapered towards the expanded diameter portion along the longitudinal axis.
