Abstract

An implantable blood pressure regulator is provided. The blood pressure regulator includes at least one connection zone and an attenuation zone. The connection zone is suitable for connection to a body conduit, such as a blood vessel. The attenuation zone is movable from a first state to a second state in response to a physiological pressure spikes. The movement from the first state to the second state lowers a level of pressure or dampens a pressure spike in the body conduit.
