US Patent:

20110077565, Mar 31, 2011

Filed:

Sep 29, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/569074

Inventors:

James G. Hanlon - Morgan Hill CA, US
David Rork Swisher - St. Charles MO, US

Assignee:

TYCO HEALTHCARE GROUP LP - Mansfield MA

International Classification:

A61F 5/00

US Classification:

602 13

Abstract:

A reduced noise pneumatic compression garment comprises a flexible member having a bladder that can conform to a limb of the human body. A port in fluid communication with the bladder has an air flow path through which pressurized air is delivered to the bladder to inflate the bladder. A porous insert is located within the flow path of the port between the air inlet and the air outlet is provided for reducing noise from air flow through the port into the inflatable chamber. A method of quietly inflating a pneumatic compression garment is also disclosed.

International Classification:

A61M 29/00
A61F 2/01

US Classification:

606194, 606200

Abstract:

A sheath comprises an elastomeric tube having a self-expanding scaffold coupled to a wall. The scaffold can expand to a diameter larger than the tube diameter to provide an enlarged distal opening. An aspiration catheter has a balloon and an aspiration port so that occlusive material can be removed from a blood vessel by drawing the balloon through the vessel while simultaneously aspirating through the port.

Assignee:

International Classification:

A61B 17/22

US Classification:

604 22

Abstract:

The apparatus includes a catheter having a combined infusion/aspiration lumen, a three lumen proximal portion and a two lumen distal portion. An infusion/aspiration valve located at the distal end of the catheter facilitates performing infusion and aspiration through the same lumen, which in turn reduces the number of lumens, and enables the combined infusion/aspiration lumen to be made larger without the need to increase the diameter of the catheter. Differing material properties in the proximal and distal portions of the catheter enable the proximal portion to be made stiffer for pushability, while the distal portion is more flexible to navigate tortuous vasculature and enable a greater amplitude agitator to be received within the catheter.
