摘要:
Devices and methods for occluding or promoting fluid flow through openings are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment an occlusion device (10) is provided having an expandable outer elongate tubular body (20), a guide member (30) extending from a distal end (20d) of the outer body, and a slide tube (40) disposed within the outer body, the proximal portions (20p,40p) of the outer body and the slide tube being fixedly mated. The slide tube is configured to slide distally within the outer tubular body when the tubular body is expanded to form wings (24a, 24b). A tether (60) can be included as part of the device and it can be used to assist in positioning and locking a location of the device in an opening. Exemplary methods for delivering devices disclosed herein are also provided.
