    摘要: A device and method are provided for minimizing and/or preventing limb ischemia, such as when a medical device is inserted into a patient’s vasculature that may occlude the vessel. The device may include a tubular member and one or more radially expandable features, such as balloons and/or hydrostatic skeletons, configured to be expanded at a target site, allowing blood to flow around and/or through the radially expandable features.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a vessel shaping device configured to reshape a vessel along a single axis and regulate a blood flow therethrough. The vessel reshaping device generally consists of a frame that can transition to an expanded configuration and can temporarily reshape a vessel, e.g. the inferior vena cava (“IVC”), in a single axis extending perpendicular to a longitudinal axis. The greater the expansion of the reshaping device, the greater the reduction in cross-sectional area and the greater the reduction in flow through the vessel. Modifying a blood flow to the heart as such can improve the symptoms of hypervolemia, leading to increased diuretic efficiency and improve symptoms of congestive heart failure.
