    Abstract: According to one aspect, a medical device may be configured for use with an endoscope and may include a tool. The tool may include an actuator, at least one extension at a distal portion of the actuator, and a distal end. The at least one extension may extend radially outward from the actuator and may have an edge configured to fragment debris within a body. The medical device may also include a cap configured for coupling to a distal end of the endoscope, and the cap may include a body defining an opening and a cavity. The opening may be configured to align with optics of the endoscope, and the at least one extension may be positioned within the cavity of the body.

    Abstract: A medical device includes a shaft, a printed circuit board positioned around an outer surface of the shaft, and an end cap. The printed circuit board includes a plurality of electrical connections at a proximal end of the printed circuit board and another plurality of electrical connections at a distal end of the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes a plurality of communication conduits connecting electrical connections at the proximal end of the printed circuit board with respective electrical connections at the distal end of the printed circuit board. When the end cap is coupled to the shaft, (1) one or more cap lumens are in communication with one or more lumens in the shaft, and (2) the plurality of end cap electrical connections are electrically connected to the electrical connections at the distal end of the printed circuit board.

    Abstract: A medical device includes a tube comprising a lumen extending from a proximal end to a distal end of the tube, a cap at the distal end of the tube having a distal opening corresponding to the lumen, and an imaging system positioned on a distal-facing surface of the cap. The medical device also includes an instrument at least partially disposed in the lumen that is non-removable from the medical device, an instrument actuation mechanism for controlling the instrument, and a single handle connected to the proximal end of the tube and housing the instrument actuation mechanism. The instrument actuation mechanism, to which a proximal end of the instrument is affixed, may be configured to be moved between a first and second position on the single handle to control an extension and retraction of the instrument relative to the tube.

    Abstract: Medical devices and related methods are described. The medical device may include a shaft, a handle housing a proximal portion of the shaft, and a lock having a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration of the lock, the shaft may be rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the shaft relative to the handle, and, in the second configuration of the lock, the shaft may be stationary relative to the handle.
