    Abstract: An implant system and method of delivery includes a catheter system including a sling catheter having a plurality of distal openings and a delivery catheter, disposed within the sling catheter and having a distal port. Suture coupled anchors may be sequentially delivered by the delivery catheter to a cardiac treatment site by aligning the port of the delivery catheter with different openings of the sling catheter and pushing the anchor through the port and the sling catheter to embed the anchor into cardiac tissue such as tissue of a papillary muscle. Each anchor may have a linear configuration for translation within the delivery catheter and a biased configuration that inhibits its reentry into the sling catheter once deployed. Once all anchors are deployed, the suture may be tightened, the anchored portion of the sling catheter may be detached, and the catheter system withdrawn.

    Abstract: A steering system for a medical device may include a first drive member having a central longitudinal axis; a central shaft extending through the first drive member; a control knob coupled to the first drive member; a braking knob coupled to the central shaft and including a first protrusion; and a brake shoe member coupled to the central shaft between the control knob and the braking knob. The first protrusion may be positioned within a first channel of the brake shoe member; the first protrusion may be configured to engage the brake shoe member to move a first arm of the brake shoe member radially outward towards a wall of the control knob when the braking knob is rotated in a first direction; and the first arm may be configured to move away from the wall when the braking knob is rotated in a second direction.

    Abstract: Systems, techniques, and devices are disclosed and may include a first sensor configured to generate a first data stream, a second sensor configured to generate a second data stream, and at least one processor and at least one non-transitory computer readable medium storing data stream management instructions. When executed by the at least one processor, the instructions causes the at least processor to receive the first data stream and the second data stream, spread the first data stream using a first code to generate a first coded data stream, spread the second data stream using a second code to generate a second coded data stream, combine the first coded data stream and the second coded data stream to generate a combined data stream, modulate the combined data stream to generate a modulated data stream, and transmit the modulated data stream via a single channel.
