US Classification:

604190, 424 937, 604272

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a device for delivering a flowable composition comprising cells, wherein the flowable composition is in an amount effective to treat an injured or diseased site. The device comprises a delivery device adapted for minimally-invasive delivery of the flowable composition through which the flowable composition can be passed while maintaining the effectiveness and viability of the cells of the flowable composition. The present invention further relates to a method for delivering the flowable composition comprising cells. The method comprises the steps of percutaneously inserting a delivery device adapted for minimally-invasive delivery of the flowable composition through which the flowable composition can be passed while maintaining the effectiveness and viability of the cells of the flowable composition and administering the flowable composition at, adjacent to or in the vicinity of the injured or diseased site.

Assignee:

PERVASIS THERAPEUTICS, INC. - Cambridge MA

International Classification:

A61K 35/12
A61P 9/00

US Classification:

424 937

Abstract:

The disclosed invention is based on the discovery that a cell-based therapy can be used to treat, ameliorate, manage and/or reduce the progression of clinical sequelae associated with vascular interventions or cardiovascular diseases, particularly occlusive thrombosis, restenosis, intimal hyperplasia, inflammation and vasodilation. The invention further benefits from the additional discovery that a heretofore undescribed implantable flowable composition is capable of sustaining a confluent population of sufficiently viable cells which can be effectively administered via a minimally-invasive surgical procedure without diminishing the clinical effectiveness or the viability of the cells. The disclosed invention can be used to treat vasculature as well as non-vascular tubular structures such as a fallopian tube.

Inventors:

Stephen A. Bollinger - Carpinteria CA

Assignee:

Mentor Corporation - Santa Barbara CA

International Classification:

A61G 710

US Classification:

5 811T

Abstract:

A method of manipulating the position of a patient during surgery is disclosed. The method includes providing a patient manipulation device having a plurality of hinged segments. A patient is placed in a first position on the device such that the length of the patient's body is parallel to an axis of rotation of the hinged segments. One of the segments is lifted to rotate the patient about the length of the patient's body to a second position on the device. In one embodiment, the patient manipulation device includes a plurality of elongated, substantially rigid patient support segments each of which has a width substantially as large as a width of a surgical table with which the device is used. The segments have longitudinal axes arranged parallel to each other and are joined together by hinges configured for rotation of the segments about the length of the patient's body.
