Polymeric Valve for Tricuspid Applications
This invention is a medical implant that is made of polymeric and metallic materials that functions as a replacement valve for tricuspid applications. The valve functions as a flow regulator and can be installed in low pressure, low flow, and low shear cardiovascular structures. It is specifically engineered to reduce stress on the implant structure...

Polymeric Heart Valve System and Method of Manufacture
This invention is a new polymer-based heart valve designed to reduce stress on the leaflets of the valve while in use in the human body, providing for longer-term durability compared to other polymer-based valves. Background: According to the CDC, heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States: about one in every four deaths is due...

Biomarker Signatures of Platelet Activation
This invention is a mechanical biomarker signature of shear effects on cells for the purpose of detecting thrombosis early so it can be treated or intercepted prior to a thrombotic event. Background: Thrombosis is a pathophysiological event that can trigger conditions like stroke or heart attack. The efficacy of many antithrombotic agents is shear...

HyperShear in a Channel: A Microfluidic Facsimile of Ventricular Assist Devices to Reduce Thrombotic Risk and Enhance Patient Safety
This technology utilizes device thrombogenicity emulation--a method which mimics the shear stresses that would be exhibited within the patient in order to assess proper anti-thrombolytic therapies. Shear stresses are observed in a microfluidic facsimile of a ventricular assist device (VAD), which can quickly be translated to assess the personal risk...
