Title: Transcatheter heart valve with micro-anchors
Inventor: ROWE STANTON
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2008-10-15
Granted: 2016-03-15
Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and apparatus for treating defective heart valve are disclosed herein. In one exemplary embodiment, a transcatheter heart valve is disclosed that includes an expandable shape memory stent and a valve member supported by the stent. A plurality of micro-anchors can be disposed along an outer surface of the stent for engaging native tissue. The transcatheter heart valve can be configured to be advanced into a dilated valve annulus via a balloon catheter. The balloon can be inflated to expand the transcatheter heart valve from a collapsed diameter to an over-expanded diameter such that the micro-anchors engage tissue along the surrounding valve annulus. After engaging the tissue, the balloon can be deflated and the shape memory stent can retract or recoil toward its predetermined recoil diameter. As the stent recoils, the surrounding tissue is pulled inward by the stent such that the diameter of the valve annulus is reduced.

Abstract: A magnetic drive pump includes a magnetic coupling comprising an outer magnet rotor and an inner magnet rotor. The outer magnet rotor is driven by a separate motor. The outer magnet rotor is positioned radially outward of a sealing wall. The inner magnet rotor is positioned radially within the sealing wall, such that rotation of the inner magnet rotor causes the pump rotor to in turn rotate. The pump rotor drives a centrifugal pump impeller to move a liquid. A bubble detector is positioned outward of the wall such that it is in a dry side of the pump. The bubble detector sends a signal into a wet side of the pump to identify the existence of a gas within a pump fluid.

Abstract: An apparatus for modifying a keratinous surface that has a rotatable applicator that is in fluid communication with a first modification composition. The apparatus also has a sensor and a CPU. The sensor is positioned forward of the applicator head such that as the head rolls across the keratinous surface the sensor reads the portion of the keratinous surface in front of the rolling head.  The sensor readings are transmitted to the CPU, the CPU  analyzes the sensor readings of the keratinous surface, and the CPU sends a signal to the applicator head to treat or not to treat the analyzed surface. When the CPU sends a signal to the applicator to treat the surface, a small portion of the first modification composition is applied to the head such that when the head rolls over the keratinous surface the first modification composition contacts the area of the keratinous surface that needs treatment.
