A collapsible medical device and associated methods of occluding an abnormal opening in, for example, a body organ, wherein the medical device is shaped from plural layers of a heat-treatable metal fabric. Each of the fabric layers is formed from a plurality of metal strands and the assembly is heat-treated within a mold in order to substantially set a desired shape of the device. By incorporating plural layers in the thus-formed medical device, the ability of the device to rapidly occlude an abnormal opening in a body organ is significantly improved.
Un dispositif pliable d'usage médical et les méthodes d'occlusion associées à une ouverture anormale, par exemple, un organe du corps, où le dispositif médical est formé de plusieurs couches d'un tissu métallique à traitement thermique. Chacune des couches de tissu est formée d'une pluralité de fils métalliques et l'assemblage est traité thermiquement dans un moule afin d'établir de manière substantielle la forme souhaitée de l'appareil. En intégrant plusieurs couches dans le dispositif médical ainsi formé, la capacité de l'appareil pour obstruer rapidement une ouverture anormale dans un organe du corps est considérablement améliorée.
