    Abstract: An intraluminal guide wire may include an elongated shaft extending between a distal and a proximal end. The guide wire may include a user actuation segment positioned proximal to the proximal end of the shaft and configured for movement relative to the shaft. The guide wire may include a core wire affixed to the user actuation segment and the distal end of the shaft. The guide wire may also include an inner member having a proximal end situated at least partially within and fixed relative to the user actuation segment and a distal end situated partially within the shaft, the core wire passing through the inner member. The guide wire may be configured with a distal segment of the inner member within the shaft exhibiting a friction-based restraint on movement within the shaft. The friction-based restraint on movement may be a frictional force between the inner member and the shaft.

    Abstract: Endovascular and intravascular devices and methods of manufacturing endovascular and intravascular devices may be provided. In one implementation, an intravascular device including an elongated sheath and an elongated coil distal to the sheath may be provided. The coil may include a first coil segment formed from a plurality of wires helically-wound at a first coil angle; a second coil segment formed from a first subset of the plurality of wires that is helically-wound at a second coil angle that is different from the first coil angle; and a third coil segment formed from a second subset of the plurality of wires that is helically-wound at a third coil angle that is different from the first and second coil angles. The coil segments may be configured such that flexibility of the coil increases in a longitudinal direction toward the distal end of the coil.

    Abstract: Consistent with disclosed embodiments, systems, devices, methods, and computer readable media for monitoring and facilitating endovascular coil delivery may be provided. Embodiments may include obtaining a first input from a coil movement sensor associated with an endovascular coil within a lumen of a catheter positioned within a body. The catheter may include a coil partitioning mechanism configured to sever the endovascular coil. Embodiments may further include obtaining a second input to activate the coil partitioning mechanism. Embodiments may further include activating, in response to the second input, the coil partitioning mechanism to sever the endovascular coil into a first coil section for delivery and a residual second coil section. Embodiments may further include determining, based on at least the first input and the second input, a length of the second coil section and outputting a signal based on the determined length of the second coil section.

    Abstract: An intraluminal device and a method of removing a clot from a body lumen with an intraluminal device may be provided. The intraluminal device may include a hollow elongated shaft and a radially-expandable mesh segment situated distal to the elongated shaft. The elongated shaft may be secured relative to a first portion of the mesh segment. The intraluminal device may additionally include a core wire affixed to a second portion of the mesh segment and extending through the elongated shaft. The elongated shaft may be configured to radially expand the mesh segment by axially moving the first portion of the mesh segment relative to the second portion of the mesh segment. In addition, the core wire may be configured to radially expand the mesh segment by axially moving the second portion of the mesh segment relative to the first portion of the mesh segment.

    Abstract: In one exemplary embodiment, an endovascular device may include a hollow shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, and sized for insertion into a blood vessel. The endovascular device may also include a control line having a proximal end and a distal end, and extending through the hollow shaft. The endovascular device may also include an actuatable working element located proximate the distal end of the hollow shaft, and configured to receive an actuation force transmitted via the distal end of the control line. The endovascular device may further include an actuator configured to exert the actuation force on the proximal end of the control line, to thereby cause relative movement between the control line and the hollow shaft and to actuate the working element. The hollow shaft may also include a cable formed of a plurality of wound wires and including a proximal segment, at least one transition segment, and a distal segment. The proximal segment, at least one transition segment, and distal segment may include different numbers of wires.
