Abstract:
1. A device for controlling blood perfusion pressure within a vessel, the device comprising: an elongated body having a lumen, a proximal end configured for placement in a first area having a first blood pressure, a distal end configured for placement in a second area having a second blood pressure, and an anchoring balloon positioned on a relative outside of the elongated body and configured to anchor the elongated body within part of a circulatory system; and a partial occluder positioned within the lumen of the elongated body between the proximal end and the distal end, the partial occluder configured to reduce in size from an initial geometry to a second geometry, the initial geometry comprising the largest geometry of the partial occluder and configured so as not to fully occlude the lumen of the elongated body; wherein the partial occluder is configured to equalize the first blood pressure at the first area with the second blood pressure at the second area.
