Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Devices to improve lung function in a patient having restricted ventilation from chest hyperinflation and related pulmonary conditions. A bronchoscopically delivered implantable airway bypass device (150) may relieve trapped air. The device comprises an expandable structure (164) comprising a distal region with a basket (160) for placement within lung parenchyma (106), and a proximal region comprising a neck connectable to a conduit (161) extending through the wall of a patient airway (214). minimally invasive methods may include procedures that reduce the time required by the overall healing process. L'invention concerne des procédés et des dispositifs pour améliorer la fonction pulmonaire chez un patient ayant une ventilation limitée due à une hyperinflation de la poitrine et des états pulmonaires associés. Un dispositif de dérivation des voies respiratoires implantable mis en place par voie bronchoscopique peut libérer l'air pris au piège. Les procédés minimalement invasifs peuvent comprendre des procédures qui réduisent le temps nécessité par le processus de cicatrisation global.
