Abstract: An implantable wireless sensor that is configured for deploying within a lumen in a body comprises a sensor body and a first anchoring element. The sensor body comprises a proximal end and a distal end. The first anchoring element is coupled to the proximal end of the sensor body and a second anchoring element is coupled to the distal end of the sensor body. At least one of the first and second anchoring elements are configured to lodge the sensor body within the lumen. The first and second anchoring elements are asymmetric by i) size with respect to each other prior to releasably retaining the sensor in a fixed relationship with a delivery system or ii) number of elements.

Abstract: A catheter pump includes a cannula and an impeller system. The cannula has an inlet zone with a first maximum outer diameter, an outlet zone with a second maximum outer diameter and a blood flow channel extending between the inlet zone and the outlet zone. The first maximum outer diameter is greater than the second maximum outer diameter, and the impeller system has a rotatable impeller body operable to convey blood from the inlet zone to the outlet zone. The impeller body may be axially spaced from the cannula in a separated position.

Abstract: Sensors for catheter pumps are disclosed herein. The catheter pump can include a catheter assembly comprising a catheter and a cannula coupled to a distal portion of the catheter. The cannula can have a proximal port for permitting the flow of blood therethrough. The catheter assembly can include a sensor to be disposed near the proximal port. A processing unit can be programmed to process a signal detected by the sensor. The processing unit can comprise a computer-readable set of rules to evaluate the signal to determine a position of the cannula relative to an aortic valve of a patient.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to heart treatment systems. In some aspects, methods and systems are provided for facilitating communication between implanted devices. For example, an implantable cardiac rhythm management device may be configured to communicate with an implantable blood pump. The implantable cardiac rhythm management device may deliver heart stimulation rate information in addition to information associated with any detected abnormalities in heart function. In response, the pump may be configured to adjust pumping by the pump to better accommodate a patient's particular needs.

Abstract: Circulatory support systems and related methods are disclosed in which a ventricular assist device is controlled based on cardiac activity monitored via cardiogram electrodes. A circulatory support system includes a ventricular assist device, cardiogram electrodes, and a controller. The controller processes a cardiogram signal generated via the cardiogram electrodes to determine one or more physiological parameters indicative of an activity level and/or cardiac cycle timing, determines at least one operating parameter for the ventricular assist device based on the one or more physiological parameters, and controls operation of the ventricular assist device in accordance with the at least one operating parameter.

Abstract: An oxygenator and method for oxygenating blood. The oxygenator includes a housing, an oxygenation chamber, and elongated gas permeable conduits that extend across the oxygenation chamber. The blood flow enters and contacts with exterior surfaces of the conduits and exits the oxygenator to transfer of oxygen from within the conduits to the blood flow and transfer carbon dioxide from the blood flow into the elongated gas permeable conduits. The housing includes a gas inlet and is configured to distribute a gas flow received through the gas inlet to the elongated gas permeable conduits so as to a first portion of the gas flow flows through a first set of the elongated gas permeable conduits in a first direction and a second portion of the gas flow flows through a second set of the elongated gas permeable conduits in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.
