    Abstract: A catheter includes an elongated tubular shaft having a distal end, a proximal end, and a lumen extending therethrough. The elongated tubular shaft includes a polymeric outer layer, a polymeric inner layer, and a braided middle layer. A marker band is positioned adjacent the distal end of the elongated tubular shaft and may surround the middle layer, and a polymeric distal tip is attached to the distal end of the elongated tubular shaft. A distal end of the outer layer terminates proximal to the marker band such that the middle layer includes an exposed region that is exposed from the outer layer between the distal end of the outer layer and a proximal end of the marker band, and the distal tip is formed over the exposed region of the middle layer and the marker band, and extends distally beyond the distal end of the elongated tubular shaft.

    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for delivering and deploying an implantable medical device with respect to a target site along a tissue wall by applying suction to draw the tissue wall to a delivery and deployment device, such as to a tissue-penetrating end of the delivery and deployment device. An additional implantable device may be deployed distal to the tissue wall, such as to facilitate manipulation of the distal wall. At least a portion of the first implantable medical device may be deployed with respect to the additional implantable medical device, such as within a lumen of the additional implantable medical device. The implantable medical device may shift from a delivery configuration to an expanded deployed configuration, and at least a portion of the implantable medical device may expand beyond the deployed configuration after deployment device to further resist migration of the implantable medical device from the target site.

    Abstract: A system for accessing a biliary duct includes an access cannula and a needle. The cannula extends along a longitudinal axis from a proximal end to a distal end and includes a channel extending longitudinally therethrough. A distal portion of the cannula includes a laser cut pattern including slots extending through a wall thereof so that the cannula is movable between a biased non-compressed configuration and a compressed configuration, in which the cannula is compressed along the longitudinal axis. The needle extends longitudinally from a proximal end to a sharp distal end. The needle is housed within the channel so that, when the cannula is in the non-compressed configuration, the sharp distal end is covered via the cannula and, when the cannula is in the compressed configuration, the sharp distal end is exposed to puncture a wall of one of an organ and a target duct.
