Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The perivascular leak repair system, and method of using the same, of the present invention provides a sealant reservoir 102 with a repair catheter 104 operably attached; a flow control device 106 disposed between the sealant reservoir 102 and the repair catheter 104 , and the flow control device 106 responsive to a flow control signal 108 ; a heart phase detector 114 generating a diastole phase signal 112 ; an injection switch 122 generating a injection signal 120 ; and a flow controller 110 responsive to the diastole phase signal 112 and the injection signal 120 , and generating the flow control signal 108 . A method of sealing a perivascular leak comprises identifying the perivascular leak 140 ; inserting a repair catheter to the perivascular leak 142 ; injecting sealant at the perivascular leak 144 ; and removing the repair catheter 146 . The sealant can be injected when the heart is in diastole to sweep the sealant into the perivascular leak.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A perivascular leak repair system comprising: a repair catheter configured to receive a syringe; a flow control valve disposed between the connector and a distal tip of the repair catheter; a heart phase detector configured to generate a diastole phase signal; and a flow controller configured to respond to the diastole phase signal and generate a flow control signal, wherein the flow control valve is configured to respond to the flow control signal.…
