US Patent:

20060248698, Nov 9, 2006

Filed:

May 5, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/122397

Inventors:

Brian Hanson - Little Canada MN, US
Wade Johnson - Minneapolis MN, US
Kenneth Merdan - Greenfield MN, US

International Classification:

B21D 39/04

US Classification:

029282000

Abstract:

A stent and a method of making a stent from a tubular member. The stent includes a pattern and an opening cut into the wall of the stent and extending from the first end to the second end. One or more connectors may be cut in the tubular wall and extend into the opening cut in the tubular member. The connectors may aid in subsequent expansion and/or forming of the stent.

Appl. No.:

9/286233

Inventors:

Brian R. Hanson - White Bear Lake MN

Assignee:

Kreger-Hanson, Incorporated - White Bear Lake MN

International Classification:

E06B 388
E05D 1100

US Classification:

49303

Abstract:

A protective shield designed for attachment to the door and door jamb for covering a pinch-void area and preventing fingers and other objects from getting pinched when the door closes. The unique geometry of the shield and narrow attachment allows for easy installation on door assemblies with push bars or panic devices. The protective shield is simple in design and thus longer lasting, as well as being aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, the protective shield allows a relatively large swinging movement of the door, for instance up to 110 degrees, more preferably up to 180 degrees, without any resultant damage to the protective shield, to the door or to the door hardware.

International Classification:

A61B 17/3205
A61B 17/221

Abstract:

A medical device may include an insertion device having a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen extending therethrough. The medical device may further include a snare device configured to transition between a contracted state within the lumen of the insertion device, and an expanded state extending distally of the insertion device. The snare device may include a loop including a pair of legs and a distal tip. The distal tip may include a plurality of stabilizers between the pair of legs.

International Classification:

A61M 25/01
A61B 17/00

Abstract:

A guide extension catheter may include a proximal shaft and a tubular distal sheath including an exchange channel allowing for access (e.g. side access) into the lumen. Guide extension catheters may be used in conjunction with a guide catheter and a medical device having a distal region disposed within the guide catheter and a proximal region disposed outside of the guide catheter. A portion of the proximal region of the medical device can be passed through the exchange channel and into the lumen, and the guide extension catheter can be advanced into the guide catheter over the medical device without removing the medical device from the guide catheter. The exchange channel can extend in a straight line path along the sheath, or may extend in an indirect path along the sheath.

International Classification:

A61M 25/01
A61M 25/00

Abstract:

An elongate medical device may have an elongate tubular body including a proximal portion configured for isotropic bending and a distal portion configured for anisotropic bending. A first steering wire may extend through a first plurality of steering wire guides formed along a first side of the distal region of the elongate tubular body and a second steering wire may extend through a second plurality of steering wire guides formed along a second side of the distal region of the elongate tubular body.

International Classification:

A61B 5/00
A61B 5/0215

Abstract:

Medical devices and methods for making and using medical devices are disclosed. An example medical device may include a medical device for measuring blood pressure. The medical device may include an elongated shaft having a proximal region and a distal region and a lumen extending therethrough and an optical pressure sensing block disposed within the lumen, the optical pressure sensing block including a distal portion bearing a pressure sensing membrane and a proximal portion forming an optical fiber connector extending proximally from the proximal portion. The optical fiber connector may be configured to be coupled to an optical fiber extending through the lumen.
