Patent NZ-520462-A (NZ)
Title: Prosthetic heart valve
Inventor: MYERS KEITH
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2001-01-29
Abstract: A tubular prosthetic semilunar or atrioventricular heart valve is formed by cutting flat, flexible leaflets according to a pattern. The valve is constructed by aligning the side edges of adjacent leaflets so that the leaflet inner faces engage each other, and then suturing the leaflets together with successive stitches along a fold line adjacent the side edges. The stitches are placed successively from a proximal in-flow end of each leaflet toward a distal out-flow end. During operation, when the leaflets open and close, the leaflets fold along the fold line. Distal tabs extend beyond the distal end of each leaflet. The successive stitches terminate proximal of the distal tab portion so that no locked stitches are placed along the distal portion of the fold line. The tab portions of adjacent leaflets are folded over each other and sewn together to form commissural attachment tabs. The commissural tabs provide commissural attachment points to accommodate sutures and the like in order to secure the tab to a vessel wall, if a semilunar valve, and papillary muscles and/or chordae tendineae if an atrioventricular valve.

Patent NZ-536071-A (NZ)
Title: Diffuser/emulsifier
Inventor: WOOTAN NORMAN L
IPC: C02F1/68
Filed: 2002-04-17
Abstract: A diffuser (10) provides the ability to diffuse one or more infusion materials into a host material. A rotor (12) and stator (30) rotate relative to one another. The infusion materials are drawn through openings (22) in the rotor and stator. These openings (22) are also causing turbulence within the host material, which is flowing through an area between the rotor (12) and stator (30). As aligned openings (22) pass one another, succussion occurs, which provides energy to diffuse the infusion materials into the host material to an extremely high degree. The opening patterns in the rotor and stator can be designed to operate at a single frequency or at multiple frequencies. The frequencies of operation may affect bonding between the infusion materials and the host material and the host material and may also be effective in break down of complex molecular structures.
