Abstract: An electrode tip assembly for a catheter is bendable under the control of the user. One portion of the assembly is more resistant to bending than the remaining portions. The variable stiffness directs and concentrates the applied bending forces in the particular region where maximum bending is desired.

Abstract: A catheter has a handle and a guide tube enclosing an interior bore. The guide tube has a proximal end and a distal end. A friction sleeve joins the proximal end of the guide tube to the handle. The friction sleeve extends from the handle and grips a portion of the guide tube beyond the handle. The friction sleeve forms a hand grip for the user beyond the confines of the handle. It also serves to effectively transmit torque applied at the handle to the distal end of the guide tube.

Abstract: An electrode assembly for use in interventricular cardiac mapping includes one or more elongated splines each of which carries a plurality of spaced apart electrodes thereon. The body of each spline is formed of a plurality of alternating electrically conductive layers and the electrically non-conductive layers. A separate electrically conductive pathway is provided to connect each of the electrodes to a different one of the conductive layers. Each of the layers is electrically connected to an electrical signal processing device so that signals provided by each of the electrodes can be processed.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an expandable member. The expandable member is sized to be positionable in a sphincter. An energy delivery device is positioned on a surface of the expandable member. The energy delivery device has a configuration that provides sufficient energy delivery to create lesions in the interior of the sphincter. When the expandable member is removed from the sphincter, the sphincter returns to its closed or contracted configuration.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for treating female urinary incontinence by applying a form of energy to tissue in the vicinity of the urethra and/or bladder outlet to change tissue compliance without substantially narrowing the urethral and/or bladder outlet lumen. The apparatus comprises an elongated shaft having a means for treating urethral tissue and an expandable member deployable distal of the means for treating. The expandable member is configured to be anchored against the bladder outlet to dispose the means for treating at a desired treatment site in the urethra using only tactile feedback. The means for treating may include a needleless RF electrode, an ultrasound transducer, or a cryogenic probe configured to be advanced through a hollow needle, each of which are designed to reduce or eliminate symptoms associated with urinary incontinence.

Abstract: Described herein are devices, systems and methods for treatment of tissue within a lumen of a body. For example, the devices described herein may be used to treat the urethra or gastrointestinal tract, including a sphincter. These devices may provide an expandable element at the distal end of an elongate body and may also include a plurality of electrodes (e.g., needle electrodes) configured to extend from the device and into the tissue to deliver energy to multiple, circumferentially arranged treatment sites. Sufficient energy may be delivered from the device to create a desired tissue effect.

Abstract: A device for introducing a catheter into a vessel through a puncture in a vessel and for sealing the puncture. The device includes an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end sized to be positioned within a tissue site which includes the puncture. The elongated body includes a utility lumen sized to allow a catheter to be delivered through the utility lumen. The utility lumen is positioned within the elongated body so positioning the elongated body within the tissue site allows a catheter delivered through the utility lumen to enter the vessel. The elongated body also includes a closure lumen having an entrance port. A closure composition can be delivered through the entrance port into the closure lumen. The closure lumen also includes an exit port adjacent the distal end of the elongated body. The closure composition delivered into the closure lumen can be delivered through the exit port to the tissue site adjacent the puncture.
