titleOfInvention | Coiled assembly for supporting the wall of a lumen |
abstract | The invention is in the field of mechanical devices. It relates to a device and methods for supporting the wall of a lumen. In particular, the invention relates to a device and method for supporting the wall of a human or animal body lumen, the device comprising a coiled body which can be inserted into a lumen and expand therein. The device may advantageously be used for treating arterial and vascular diseases, in particular coronary conditions and cardiovascular diseases. The device may also advantageously be used for the localized delivery of drugs.In particular, the invention provides a device for supporting the wall of a lumen comprising a coiled structure (10) defining an inner core (20) wherein the inner core comprises a support wire (30) comprising a shape memory material, wherein the shape memory material is programmed to make the coiled structure (10) assume a macro-coiled structure (40) upon an appropriate trigger. |
