Abstract

A filter (10) comprising a porous material is arranged in a generally conica l shape having an expandable base (11) and a vertex (12). A reservoir tip (15) is located at the vertex (12) for collecting filtered embolic material. The tip (15) communicates with a distal port (26) and lumen of an aspiration tub e (20) for removing embolic material under vacuum. A vessel occluding device (60) comprising a non-permeable material having an expandable conical shape and communicating with an aspiration tube (20) is also disclosed. Methods of using the filter and occluding devices for protecting a patient from embolization during cardiovascular procedures are described.

Claims (40)

1. A filter, comprising:
a porous material arranged in a generally conical shape having an expandable base and a vertex;
a reservoir tip located at the vertex of the cone for collecting filtered embolic material; and an aspiration tube having a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen therebetween, the lumen communicating with a port at the distal end, the distal end of the aspiration tube extending into and communicating with the reservoir tip.
2. The filter of claim 1, wherein the reservoir tip comprises a nonporous material.
3. The filter of claim 1, further comprising a vacuum pump communicating with the proximal end of the aspiration tube.
4. The filter of claim 1, further comprising an infusion port in the reservoir tip for infusion of saline.
5. The filter of claim 1, wherein the aspiration tube further comprises a turbine.
6. The filter of claim 2, wherein the reservoir tip comprises latex.
7. The filter of claim 6, wherein the latex covers a sector bounded by first and second radii and the included arc of a circle.
8. The filter of claim 1, wherein the filter is mounted on a cannula.
9. The filter of claim 1, wherein the filter is mounted on an insertion handle.
10. The filter of claim 9, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within the insertion handle.
11 11. The filter of claim 1, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within an obturator.
12. The filter of claim 8, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within the cannula.
13. A method for protecting a patient from embolization, comprising the steps of:
insetting a filter into the patient's aorta, the filter having a reservoir tip and an aspiration tube communicating with a port at the reservoir tip;

expanding the filter;
aspirating emboli through the suction port, wherein embolic material is removed from the aorta; and collapsing the filter and removing the filter form the aorta.
14. The method of claim 13, further comprising the step of manipulating the aorta upstream of the filter.
15. The method of claim 13, further comprising the step of inserting an aortic cannula for perfusion of oxygenated blood.
16. The method of claim 15, further comprising the step of performing cardiopulmonary bypass.
17. The method of claim 13, further comprising the step of performing cardiac surgery.
18. The method of claim 13, wherein the filter comprises a porous material arranged in a generally conical shape having an expanded base and a vertex.
19. The method of claim 13, wherein the reservoir tip collects filtered embolic material.
20. The method of claim 13, wherein the aspiration tube has a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen therebetween.
21. The method of claim 13, wherein the port is at the distal end of the aspiration tube.
22. The method of claim 13, wherein the distal end of the aspiration tube extends into and communicates with the reservoir tip.
23. The method of claim 13, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within an obturator.
24. A vessel occluding device, comprising:

25. The device of claim 24, further comprising a reservoir tip located at the vertex of the cone for collecting filtered embolic material.
26. The device of claim 24, wherein the nonporous material is mounted at a distal end of a cannula.
27. The device of claim 24, wherein the nonporous material is mounted on an insertion handle.
28. The device of claim 24, wherein the aspiration tube is carried within the cannula.
29. The device of claim 24, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within an obturator.
30. The device of claim 26, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within the cannula.
31. A method for protecting a patient from embolization, comprising the steps of:
inserting a cannula into the patient's aorta, the cannula having a nonporous material and an aspiration tube extending into an interior of the conical-shaped nonporous material and communicating with a port at a vertex of the nonporous material;
expanding the nonporous material to occlude the aorta;
aspirating blood through the port, wherein embolic material is removed with the blood; and collapsing the nonporous material and removing the cannula form the aorta.
32. The method of claim 31, further comprising the step of manipulating the aorta upstream of the expanded nonporous material.
33. The method of claim 31, further comprising the step of inserting an aortic cannula for perfusion of oxygenated blood.
34. The method of claim 31, wherein the porous material is arranged in a generally conical shape having an expanded base and a vertex.
35. The method of claim 31, wherein a reservoir tip is located at the vertex of the cone for collecting filtered embolic material.
36. The method of claim 31, wherein the aspiration tube has a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen therebetween.
37. The method of claim 35, wherein the aspiration tube extends into and communicates with the reservoir tip.
38. The method of claim 33, further comprising the step of performing cardiopulmonary bypass.
39. The method of claim 31, further comprising the step of performing cardiac surgery.
40. The method of claim 31, wherein the aspiration tube extends proximally within an obturator.
