Devices, systems, and methods for treating vascular defects are disclosed herein. One aspect of the present technology, for example, includes an occlusive device comprising a mesh having a low-profile state for intravascular delivery to the aneurysm and a deployed state, the mesh comprising a first end portion, a second end portion, and a length extending between the first and second end portions, and a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and a width extending between the first and second lateral edges. The mesh may have a predetermined shape in the deployed state in which (a) the mesh is curved along its width, (b) the mesh is curved along its length, and (c) the mesh has an undulating contour across at least a portion of one or both of its length or its width. The mesh is configured to be positioned within the aneurysm in the deployed state such that the mesh extends over the neck of the aneurysm.

Devices, systems, and methods for the treatment of vascular defects

A method for reconditioning a rollable wheel includes coupling a polymeric wheel to a reconditioning system, the polymeric wheel having an outer surface including an abraded area, the abraded area having a first average surface roughness, and applying heat to the abraded area of the outer surface with one or more heater of the reconditioning system, such that a substantial portion of the abraded area is transformed to have a second average surface roughness, the second average surface roughness less than the first average surface roughness.

Systems and methods for reconditioning polymeric wheels

A parent artery occlusion (PAO) device which provides for immediate occlusion of a cerebral artery to isolate a defect. The PAO device includes a self-expanding wire-frame prolate structure which is partially covered with an ePTFE membrane.

Embolic implant and method of use

An aneurysm bridging device can be placed in the neurovasculature of a patient by advancing the aneurysm bridging device in a small-diameter configuration a delivery catheter to a target region within the neurovasculature and securing the distal region of the aneurysm bridging device to the neurovasculature. While the distal region of the aneurysm bridging device is secured to the neurovasculature, the proximal region of the aneurysm bridging device can be advanced to permit the aneurysm bridging device to expand from the small-diameter configuration and to deform and twist in a central region of the aneurysm bridging device. The proximal region of the aneurysm bridging device can be secured within the neurovasculature to maintain the central region of the aneurysm bridging device in a deformed state.

Protuberant aneurysm bridging device deployment method

A deflation catheter device, comprising: a catheter tube having a proximal end and a distal end; a stylet disposed within the catheter tube; a stylet handle attached to the stylet; and a y-connector disposed near a proximal end of the catheter tube, configured to provide fluid communication from the distal end of the catheter tube and a suction port, and configured to provide access for the stylet from the proximal end of the catheter tube to the distal end of the catheter tube.

Deflation and removal of implantable medical devices

According to embodiments, disclosed is an inflation and deflation device for an inflatable medical device, comprising: an inflation tubing disposed between an access block and a roller configured to rotate about an axis of a roller head; wherein the inflation tubing provides fluid communication between a container and the inflatable medical device; wherein the access block and the roller are configured to restrict flow through the inflation tubing at the area of pressure between the roller and the access block; and wherein the rotation of the roller about the axis of the roller head is configured to transport a fluid within the inflation tubing.
