Definitions

  • This invention relates to medical devices, more particularly, to intraluminal devices.
  • Coronary and peripheral stents have been proven to provide a superior means of maintaining vessel patency, however, they have subsequently been used in conjunction with grafts as a repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm, fibers or other materials as occlusion devices, and as an intraluminal support for artificial valves, among other uses.
  • stents and related devices Some of the chief goals in designing stents and related devices include providing sufficient radial strength to supply sufficient force to the vessel and prevent device migration.
  • Self-expanding stents are superior in this regard to balloon expandable stents which are more popular for coronary use.
  • the challenge is designing a device that can be delivered to the target vessel in as small of a configuration as possible, while still being capable of adequate expansion.
  • Self- expanding stents usually require larger struts than balloon expandable stents, thus increasing their profile. When used with fabric or other coverings that require being folded into a delivery catheter, the problem is compounded.
  • a basic stent including a fabric covering, that is capable of being delivered with a low profile, while still having a sufficient expansion ratio to permit implantation in larger vessels, if desired, while being stable, self-centering, and capable of conforming to the shape of the vessel.
  • an illustrative multiple-sided intraluminal medical device comprised of a single piece of wire or other material having a plurality of sides and bends interconnecting adjacent sides.
  • the bends can be coils, fillets, or other configurations to reduce stress and fatigue.
  • the single piece of wire is preferably joined by an attachment mechanism, such as a piece of cannula and solder, to form a closed circumference frame.
  • the device has a first configuration wherein the sides and bends generally lie within a single, flat plane.
  • the frame is folded into a second configuration where opposite bends are brought in closer proximity to one another toward one end of the device, while the other opposite ends are folded in closer proximity together toward the opposite end of the device.
  • the device becomes a self-expanding stent.
  • the device is compressed into a delivery device, such as a catheter, such that the sides are generally beside one another. While the preferred embodiment is four-sided, other polygonal shapes can be used as well.
  • one or more barbs can be attached to the frame for anchoring the device in the lumen of a vessel.
  • the barbs can be extensions of the single piece of wire or other material comprising the frame, or they can represent a second piece of material that is separately attached to the frame by a separate attachment mechanism.
  • An elongated barb can be used to connect additional devices with the second and subsequent frames attached to the barb in a similar manner.
  • a covering such as DACRON, PTFE, collagen, or other flexible material
  • sutures or other means to partially, completely, or selectively restrict fluid flow.
  • the frame formed into the second configuration functions as an vascular occlusion device that once deployed, is capable of almost immediately occluding an artery.
  • a artificial valve such as that used in the lower legs and feet to correct incompetent veins, can be made by covering half of the frame aperture with a triangular piece of material. The artificial vein traps retrograde blood flow and seals the lumen, while normal blood flow is permitted to travel through the device.
  • the device can be used to form a stent graft for repairing damaged or diseased vessels.
  • a pair of covered frames or stent adaptors are used to secure a tubular graft prosthesis at either end and seal the vessel.
  • Each stent adaptor has an opening through which the graft prosthesis is placed and an elongated barb is attached to both frames.
  • one or more frames in the second configuration are used inside a sleeve to secure the device to a vessel wall.

  • FIG. 1 depicts a top view of one embodiment of the medical device 1 0 of the present invention comprising a frame 1 1 of resilient material, preferably metal wire made of stainless steel or a superelastic material (e.g., nitinol). While round wired is depicted in each of the embodiments shown herein, other types, e.g., flat, square, or triangular, may be used to form the frame.
  • the frame comprises a closed circumference 62 of a single piece 59 of material that is formed into a device 1 0 having a plurality of sides 1 3 interconnected by a series of bends 1 2.
  • the depicted embodiment includes four sides 1 3 of approximately equal length.
  • FIG. 1 9 includes a four-sided frame 1 1 having the general shape of a kite with two adjacent longer sides 66 and two adjacent shorter sides 67.
  • the bends 1 2 interconnecting the sides 1 3 comprise a coil 1 4 of approximately one and a quarter turns.
  • the coil bend produces superior bending fatigue characteristics than that of a simple bend 40, as shown in FIG. 9, when the frame is formed from stainless steel and most other standard materials.
  • the bend 1 2 should be of a structure that minimizes bending fatigue.
  • Alternative bend 1 2 embodiments include a outward-projecting fillet 41 as shown in
  • Fillets are well known in the stent art as a means to reduce stresses in bends. By having the fillet extend inward as depicted in FIG. 1 1 , there is less potential trauma to the vessel wall.
  • An occlusion device for example, preferably uses .010" wire for a 1 0 mm square frame, while .014" and .01 6" wire would be used for 20 mm and 30 mm frames, respectively. Wire that is too stiff can damage the vessel, not conform well to the vessel wall, and increase the profile of the device.
  • the single piece 59 of material comprising the frame
  • 1 1 is formed into the closed circumference by securing the first and second ends 60,61 with an attachment mechanism 1 5 such as a piece of metal cannula.
  • the ends 60,61 of the single piece 59 are then inserted into the cannula 1 5 and secured with solder 25, a weld, adhesive, or crimping to form the closed frame 1 1 .
  • the ends 60,61 of the single piece 59 can be joined directly without addition of a cannula 1 5, such as by soldering, welding, or other methods to join ends 61 and 62.
  • the frame could be fabricated as a single piece of material 59, by stamping or cutting the frame 1 1 from another sheet (e.g., with a laser), fabricating from a mold, or some similar method of producing a unitary frame.
  • the device 1 0 depicted in FIG. 1 is shown in its first configuration 35 whereby all four bends 20,21 ,22,23 and each of the sides 1 3 generally lie within a single flat plane.
  • the frame 1 1 of FIG. 1 is folded twice, first along a diagonal axis 24 with opposite bends 20 and 21 being brought into closer proximity, followed by opposite bends 22 and 23 being folded together and brought into closer proximity in the opposite direction.
  • the second configuration 36 depicted in FIG. 2, has two opposite bends 20,21 oriented at the first end 68 of the device 10, while the other opposite bends 22,23 are oriented at the second end 69 of the device 1 0 and rotated approximately 1 80° with respect to bends 20 and 21 when viewed in cross-section.
  • the medical device in the second configuration 36 can be used as a stent 44 to maintain an open lumen 34 in a vessel 33, such as a vein, artery, or duct.
  • the bending stresses introduced to the frame 1 1 by the first and second folds required to form the device 1 0 into the second configuration 36 apply radial force against the vessel wall 70 to hold the device 10 in place and prevent vessel closure.
  • the device in the second configuration 36 when removed from the vessel or other constraining means will at least partially return to the first configuration 25. It is possible to plastically form the device 10 into the second configuration 36, such that it does not unfold when restraint is removed. This might be particularly desired if the device is made from nitinol or a superelastic alloy.
  • the standard method of deploying the medical device 1 0 in a vessel 33, depicted in FIG. 6, involves resiliently forming the frame 1 1 into a third configuration 37 to load into a delivery device 26, such as a catheter. In the third configuration 37 the adjacent sides 1 3 are generally beside each other in close proximity.
