AN ENDOGRAFT DELIVERY DEVICE ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016631 titled 'AN ENDOGRAFT DELIVERY DEVICE ASSEMBLY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an endograft delivery device assembly that includes a guide wire cannula, a positioner, a sheath, and a sheath splitter assembly. The guide wire cannula extends from the tip to a handle assembly at the distal end. The positioner is placed around the guide wire cannula, and the sheath extends from the handle assembly over the positioner towards the tip. The sheath splitter assembly, located within the handle assembly, consists of a splitter body attached to the positioner and at least one splitter arm. The splitter body has a through-hole for the guide wire cannula, and the splitter arm extends laterally from the splitter body through a slit in the sheath to a support within the handle assembly. The splitter body has a circumferential sealing surface that, when the sheath is stretched over it, forms a seal with the inner surface of the sheath.

  • The endograft delivery device assembly includes a guide wire cannula, a positioner, a sheath, and a sheath splitter assembly.
  • The guide wire cannula extends from the tip to the handle assembly at the distal end.
  • The positioner is placed around the guide wire cannula.
  • The sheath extends from the handle assembly over the positioner towards the tip.
  • The sheath splitter assembly includes a splitter body attached to the positioner and at least one splitter arm.
  • The splitter body has a through-hole for the guide wire cannula.
  • The splitter arm extends laterally from the splitter body through a slit in the sheath to a support within the handle assembly.
  • The splitter body has a circumferential sealing surface that forms a seal with the inner surface of the sheath when stretched over it.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Endovascular procedures
  • Minimally invasive surgeries
  • Vascular interventions

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Facilitates the delivery of endografts in a controlled manner
  • Provides a seal to prevent leakage during the procedure
  • Allows for precise positioning of the endograft

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy and control during endovascular procedures
  • Reduced risk of complications and post-operative complications
  • Minimally invasive approach leading to faster recovery times


Original Abstract Submitted

an endograft delivery device assembly a guide wire cannula extending distally from the tip to a handle assembly at the distal end. a positioner is disposed around the guide wire cannula. a sheath extends from the handle assembly over the positioner towards the tip. a sheath splitter assembly is within the handle assembly, and includes a splitter body attached to the positioner and disposed within the sheath and at least one splitter arm. the splitter body defines a through-hole through which a guide wire cannula passes. the splitter arm extends laterally from the splitter body though a slit though the sheath to a support within the handle assembly. the splitter body includes a circumferential sealing surface extending towards the tip, the sealing surface and the inner surface of the sheath dimensioned such that the sheath is circumferentially stretched over the sealing surface thereby forming a seal.
