Us Patents

  • Endovascular Platforms For Uniform Therapeutic Delivery To Local Targets

    view source
  • US Patent:
    20110313508, Dec 22, 2011
  • Filed:
    Jun 21, 2010
  • Appl. No.:
    12/819429
  • Inventors:
    Vijaya Kolachalama - Cambridge MA, US
    Evan Levine - Auburndale MA, US
    Elazer Edelman - Brookline MA, US
  • International Classification:
    A61F 2/82
    B23P 11/00
  • US Classification:
    623 115, 29428
  • Abstract:
    An endovascular platform is provided that includes a periodic tiling-based stent structure having a parallelogram tile associated with a fundamental domain and an intrinsic cell-shape. A lattice vector includes a section of the parallelogram tile where the lattice vector is circumferentially folded to create helical repetition of cells.
  • Methods For Reducing The Blood Priming Volume And Membrane Surface Area In Microfluidic Lung Assist Devices

  • US Patent:
    20130144266, Jun 6, 2013
  • Filed:
    Dec 5, 2012
  • Appl. No.:
    13/705795
  • Inventors:
    The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Inc. - Cambridge MA, US
    Joseph L. Charest - Cambridge MA, US

  • Assignee:
    The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Inc. - Cambridge MA
  • International Classification:
    A61M 1/16
  • US Classification:
    604522, 422 48, 435 2
  • Abstract:
    A device and method for oxygenating blood is disclosed herein. The device includes a plurality of passive mixing elements that causes a fluid to mix as it flows through the device. The passive mixing elements continually expose new red blood cells to the portion of the flow channel where oxygenation can occur. Accordingly, in some implementations, the device and method uses less blood to prime the device and allows for the oxygenation of blood with a substantial shorter flow channel when compared to conventional oxygenation methods and devices.
  • Endovascular Platforms For The Differential Targeting Of Molecules To Vessel Wall And Vessel Lumen

  • US Patent:
    20110004293, Jan 6, 2011
  • Filed:
    Jul 12, 2010
  • Appl. No.:
    12/834470
  • Inventors:
    Kumaran Kolandaivelu - Newton MA, US
    Abraham Tzafriri - Lexington MA, US
    Vijaya B. Kolachalama - Cambridge MA, US

  • International Classification:
    A61F 2/82
  • US Classification:
    623 116, 623 142
  • Abstract:
    A drug delivering medical system intended for placement into a blood vessel is provided. The drug delivering medical system includes a stent device having a plurality of interconnected distinct strut elements comprising distinct strut element surfaces. At least some of the distinct strut surfaces are neither in contact with the lumen wall nor in contact with wall-contacting flow recirculation zones. The stent device releases at least one biologically active compound intended for distal delivery and provides sufficient surface area for delivering the required drug dose to a distal tissue.

  • International Classification:
    F16L 41/02
    B29C 45/00
  • Abstract:
    A microfluidic device is provided. A manifold having a first channel, a second channel, and a third channel configured to transport blood can be coupled to a substrate defining an artificial vasculature. The first channel can be configured to carry blood in a first direction. Each of the second and third channels can couple to the first channel at a first junction and can be configured to receive blood from the first channel. The second channel can be configured to carry blood in a second direction away from the first direction. The third channel can be configured to carry blood in a third direction away from the second direction. The first, second, and third channels can be non-coplanar.
