Medical device for modification of left atrial appendage and related systems and methods
First Claim
1. A medical device for modifying a left atrial appendage (“
- LAA”
) of a heart, the medical device comprising;
an occluder portion coupled to a hub having an axis; and
an anchor portion including multiple anchor segments each extending between a first end and a second end, each first end of the multiple anchor segments operably coupled to the occluder portion, each second end of the multiple anchor segments coupled to an anchor hub, the anchor hub moveable along the axis so as to facilitate the anchor portion to roll-inward to a retracted position with a portion of the anchor segments moved through the hub and with the anchor hub moved to a proximal position of the hub and the anchor portion to roll-outward to a deployed position with the anchor hub being moved distal of the proximal position.

Abstract
Devices, methods and systems are provided for occluding an opening within the tissue of a body, such as a left atrial appendage. In one embodiment, a system for use in occluding an opening in the tissue of a body includes a handle, a catheter coupled with the handle and a medical device disposed within a lumen of the catheter. The medical device includes an anchor system having a plurality of anchor segments coupled with an anchor hub. The medical device further includes an occluder system having a plurality of occluder segments coupled with an occluder hub. A first actuator is configured to displace the occluder hub independent of, and relative to, the anchor hub to deploy the occluder system from a refracted state to an expanded state while the anchor system remains in a retracted state.

14. A medical device for modifying a left atrial appendage (LAA) of a heart, the medical device comprising:
-
an occluder portion coupled to a hub having an axis; and an anchor portion including multiple anchor segments each extending between a first end and a second end, each first end of the multiple anchor segments operably coupled to the occluder portion, each second end of the multiple anchor segments coupled to an anchor hub, the anchor hub moveable along the axis so as to facilitate the anchor portion to at least partially invert to a retracted position with a portion of the anchor segments moved through the hub and with the anchor hub moved to a proximal position of the hub and the anchor portion to at least partially evert to a deployed position with the anchor hub moved distal of the proximal position. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 41, 42, 43, 44)

25. A medical device for modifying a left atrial appendage (“
- LAA”
) of a heart, comprising;an occluder portion coupled to a hub having an axis; and an anchor portion including multiple anchor segments each extending between a first end and a second end, each first end of the multiple anchor segments operably coupled to the occluder portion and each second end of the multiple anchor segments coupled to an anchor hub, the anchor portion being moveable between a fully deployed state and a non-deployed state with movement of the anchor hub along the axis, the anchor portion including multiple engaging members extending therefrom such that the multiple engaging members are oriented to extend proximally from the anchor portion when the anchor portion is in the fully deployed state and the multiple engaging members are oriented to extend distally from the anchor portion when the anchor portion is in the non-deployed state; wherein the multiple anchor segments comprise at least a portion that is moveable through the hub to move the anchor portion between the fully deployed state and the non-deployed state. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 45, 46, 47, 48)
