AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional percutaneous introduction methods for transvascular medical devices require multiple devices and steps, increasing the risk of air introduction and blood loss, and are costly and inefficient.

Method used

The dilating introducer device, comprising a conical tube with two halves and a clip, allows for the percutaneous vascular deployment of catheter-based medical devices without an additional introducer sheath, by dilating the tissue opening and introducing the device through a single multifunctional device.

Benefits of technology

This solution reduces the number of devices and steps required, minimizing the risk of complications, improving procedural efficiency, and reducing costs while enabling minimally invasive treatment of various heart conditions.
