PACKAGING FOR A VENTRICULAR ASSIST DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18652930 titled 'PACKAGING FOR A VENTRICULAR ASSIST DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes packaging for a ventricular assist device, including a pump-head chamber and a catheter-securement piece to secure the delivery catheter.
- The packaging allows the pump head to be packaged in a non-radially constrained configuration.
- A catheter-securement piece secures the distal end of the delivery catheter to the packaging.
- The pump head can be radially constrained by being retracted into the delivery catheter while secured within the packaging.
Key Features and Innovation
- Packaging design for a ventricular assist device
- Non-radially constrained configuration for the pump head
- Catheter-securement piece to secure the delivery catheter
- Radial constraint of the pump head by retracting it into the delivery catheter
Potential Applications
The technology can be used in medical devices for assisting the heart function, specifically in ventricular assist devices.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the need for secure and efficient packaging of ventricular assist devices, ensuring proper deployment and function.
Benefits
- Secure packaging of the pump head
- Efficient deployment of the ventricular assist device
- Improved functionality and reliability of the device
Commercial Applications
- Medical device manufacturing
- Cardiac surgery equipment
- Healthcare industry suppliers
Questions about Ventricular Assist Device Packaging
How does the non-radially constrained configuration benefit the packaging of ventricular assist devices?
The non-radially constrained configuration allows for secure packaging of the pump head while ensuring efficient deployment during use.
What role does the catheter-securement piece play in securing the delivery catheter within the packaging?
The catheter-securement piece is shaped to define a hole and is configured to secure the distal end of the delivery catheter, ensuring proper placement and function of the device.
Original Abstract Submitted
Apparatus and methods are described including packaging for a ventricular assist device. The packaging defines a pump-head chamber in which the pump head is packaged in a non-radially constrained configuration. A catheter-securement piece is shaped to define a hole and is configured to secure a distal end of the delivery catheter to the packaging by securing the delivery catheter within the hole. The packaging is configured such that the pump head is configured to be radially constrained by being retracted into the distal end of the delivery catheter, while the delivery catheter is secured within the hole. Other applications are also described.
