    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for off-axis visualization are described herein. An endoluminal tissue manipulation assembly is disclosed which provides for a stable endoluminal platform and which also provides for effective triangulation of tools. Such an apparatus may comprise an optionally shape-lockable elongate body defining a longitudinal axis and adapted for endoluminal advancement in a patient body, at least one articulatable visualization lumen disposed near or at a distal region of the elongate body, the at least one articulating visualization lumen being adapted to articulate off-axis relative to a longitudinal axis of the elongate body, and at least one articulatable tool arm member disposed near or at the distal region of the elongate body, the at least one articulatable tool arm member being adapted to articulate off-axis and manipulate a tissue region of interest.

    Abstract: A surgical access device is adapted for performing laparoscopic surgical procedures with multiple instruments passing through the surgical access device and through a single incision in the abdominal wall of a patient with the abdominal cavity pressurized with an insufflation gas. The surgical access device is adapted to provide instrument access to the abdominal cavity for surgical procedures while generally maintaining insufflation pressure in the abdominal cavity. The surgical access device comprises an access pad. The access pad comprises a material formed of a mixture comprising a triblock copolymer, an oil, and a foaming agent. The access pad is adapted to be disposed within an incision within an abdominal wall. The access pad has an external flange and an internal flange integrally formed with the access pad. The external flange is adapted to be disposed external to the abdominal wall in an operative position and the internal flange adapted to be disposed internal to the abdominal wall in the operative position. The access pad is configured to be maintained in the operative position and adapted to form a seal with the abdominal wall. A plurality of openings are formed through the access pad between an external surface and an internal surface of the access pad. The plurality of openings when operatively disposed are in communication with the incision and form working channels between a location external to the abdominal wall and a location internal to the abdominal wall. The access pad is adapted to conform to a surface of an instrument inserted through the working channel. At least a portion of the access pad between the external flange and the internal flange and within the incision between an external surface of the abdominal wall and an internal surface of the abdominal wall is adapted to form an instrument seal with the instrument. Locating the access pad within the incision creates a radially compressive force to provide an axial seal between the access pad and the abdominal wall.

    Abstract: Apparatus & methods for optimizing anchoring force are described herein. In securing tissue folds, over-compression of the tissue directly underlying the anchors is avoided by utilizing tissue anchors having expandable arms configured to minimize contact area between the anchor and tissue. When the anchor is in its expanded configuration, a load is applied to the anchor until it is optimally configured to accommodate a range of deflections while the anchor itself exerts a substantially constant force against the tissue. Various devices, e.g., stops, spring members, fuses, strain gauges, etc., can be used to indicate when the anchor has been deflected to a predetermined level within the optimal range. Moreover, other factors to affect the anchor characteristics include, e.g., varying the number of arms or struts of the anchor, positioning of the arms, configuration of the arms, the length of the collars, etc.
