Systems for heart treatment

Described are devices and methods for treating degenerative, congestive heart disease and related valvular dysfunction. Percutaneous and minimally invasive surgical tensioning structures offer devices that mitigate changes in the ventricular structure (i.e., remodeling) and deterioration of global left ventricular performance related to tissue damage precipitating from ischemia, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or other abnormalities. These tensioning structures can be implanted within various major coronary blood-carrying conduit structures (arteries, veins and branching vessels), into or through myocardium, or into engagement with other anatomic structures that impact cardiac output to provide tensile support to the heart muscle wall which resists diastolic filling pressure while simultaneously providing a compressive force to the muscle wall to limit, compensate or provide therapeutic treatment for congestive heart failure and / or to reverse the remodeling that produces an enlarged heart.

Cardiac constraint with draw string tensioning

A method and apparatus for treating congestive heart disease and related cardiac complications such as valvular disorders includes a constraining device placed on the heart. The constraining device is a jacket of flexible material of knit construction defining a volume between an open upper end and a lower end. The jacket is dimensioned for the apex of the heart to be inserted into the volume through the open upper end and for the jacket to be slipped over the heart. The jacket is further dimensioned for the jacket to have a longitudinal dimension between the upper and lower ends sufficient for said jacket to constrain said lower portion of the heart. The jacket adapted to be adjusted on the heart to snugly conforming to an external geometry of the heart to constrain circumferential expansion of the heart beyond. A flexible drawstring is laced through the jacket material for the knit material to be bunched together as one end of the drawstring is pulled. A releasable stay member is provided for holding the draw string in a fixed position relative to said jacket upon release of a pulling tension on the draw string with the stay member releasable in response to a resumed pulling tension on the draw string.

Apparatus and methods for treating congestive heart disease

Methods and apparatus are provided for treating congestive heart by actively or passively enhancing perfusion to the renal arteries. A first embodiment comprises a specially configured balloon catheter and extracorporeal pump, wherein the pump operates in a “once-through” fashion or alternating volume displacement mode. In another embodiment the catheter includes a pair of balloons to isolate a region of the aorta, and a third balloon that directs flow into the renal arteries. In still further embodiments, a stent or cuff having a constricted region is deployed in or around the aorta, respectively, to create a backpressure upstream of the stent or cuff. Methods of enhancing renal perfusion also are provided.

Apparatus and methods for treating congestive heart disease

Methods and apparatus are provided for treating congestive heart failure using a catheter having an inlet end configured for placement in the source of arterial blood such as the aorta, left ventricle or a femoral artery, and an outlet end having at least one conduit configured to be placed in the renal arteries. The catheter includes a lumen through which blood passes from the aorta or left ventricle directly to the renal artery, means for engaging the first conduit with renal artery. The means for engaging also may reduce backflow of blood into the abdominal aorta. The catheter preferably is configured to permit percutaneous, transluminal implantation. Methods of using and implanting the catheter are also provided.

Method and Apparatus for Treatment of Congestive Heart Disease

In one aspect, the present invention is directed to an apparatus and method for treating congestive heart failure that restores kidney renal functions by artificial perfusion of at least one kidney. In one aspect, a catheter inserted into the aorta of the patient has an outlet port that supplies the patient's blood obtained from a patient's aorta into an adjoining renal artery of the patient to perfuse the kidney. The catheter comprises a rotor housed inside a portion of the catheter to supply the blood to the kidney at a desired pressure. The restoration of kidney function assists the heart by removing excess fluid, urine and toxin from the patient, and by normalizing the patient's renin-angiotensin system and other neurohormonal substances.

Septum attached ventricular support

A method and device are disclosed for treating congestive heart disease. The material of the device is secured to the heart proximate the septal wall. The material covering the ventricles may or may not have the same tension and or compliance. The device can be constructed as a unitary “jacket” that is slipped over the apex of the heart. Alternately, the device implanted as one, two or more separate components. In one embodiment, the material covers both the left and right ventricles. In another embodiment, the material covers only one ventricle. The device may include at least one adjustment mechanism configured to adjust the tension of the material. Preferably, the device includes a first adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a tension of the material covering the right ventricle and a second adjustment mechanism configured to adjust the tension of the material covering the left ventricle such that the tension of the material covering the left ventricle can be different than the tension of the material covering the right ventricle.

Application of epicatechin gallate and derivatives thereof for treating or preventing myocardial infarction and other ischemic heart diseases

InactiveCN101984965APharmacological pre-adaptation functionPharmacological postconditioningOrganic active ingredientsCardiovascular disorderReperfusion injuryCvd risk
The invention relates to an application of natural compound epicatechin gallate obtained from tea and derivatives thereof for treating or preventing myocardial infarction and other ischemic heart diseases. The compound is used for preventing the myocardial injury of the heart caused by ischemia-reperfusion, and is a medicament for potentially treating or preventing the heart ischemia / reperfusion injury. Particularly, the compound has a novel effect on protecting the heart and has a function that the enhancement of the myocardial contractility does not depend on the increase of the concentration of calcium ions in myocardial cells. In the invention, it is discovered that the epicatechin gallate (ECG) and the derivatives thereof have pharmacological pre-adaptation functions and have pharmacological post-adaptation functions for the first time, thus the ECG and the derivatives thereof are possibly novel medicaments for treating or preventing myocardial infarction and other ischemic heart diseases. The ECG and the derivatives thereof not only can be used for clinically treating congestive heart diseases through pharmacological post-adaptation but also can be used for medically preventing the patient who suffers from myocardial infarction and then is cured from being subjected to myocardial infarction again through pharmacological pre-adaptation.
