Abstract: According to one aspect, a handle assembly for a medical device may comprise a handle body; and an actuator for controlling a supply of air and a supply of liquid to the medical device. The actuator may comprise a button including a lumen extending through the button; an interior body coupled to the button, wherein a first channel of the interior body is fluidically connected to the lumen; and an exterior body coupled to the handle body, wherein the interior body is received by the exterior body. The actuator is operable at a plurality of different positions along a circumference of the handle body, and the actuator is configured to: supply air to the medical device when a user covers the lumen; and/or supply liquid to the medical device when a user presses the button.

Abstract: A handle of a medical device may comprise an actuator; a lock movable relative to the actuator and having a feature movable relative to the actuator; and a rack having plurality of teeth separated from one another by a plurality of gaps. The lock may be configured to move the feature from (a) a first configuration, in which the feature is disposed in the gap, between two of the plurality of teeth, such that the two teeth inhibit the actuator from rotating; to (b) a second configuration, in which the feature is disposed outside of the gap, such that the actuator is rotatable. In the second configuration, the teeth may be disposed between the feature and the actuator.

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.
