    摘要: A device for implantation in a left atrial appendage of the heart comprises docking station comprising a radially expansible element that is adjustable between a contracted orientation suitable for transluminal delivery and a deployed orientation configured to anchor within the left atrial appendage and fluidically isolate the left atrial appendage from the left atrium, the docking station also includes a recessed socket accessible from the left atrium through an opening, and a closure coving the opening. A modular active element is configured for detachable engagement within the recessed socket of the docking station. The modular active element comprises a treatment element configured to electrically stimulate heart tissue, thermally stimulate heart tissue, electroporate heart tissue, or deliver a substance into heart tissue or a chamber of the heart, or a sensing element configured to detect a parameter selected from temperature, pressure, electrical signal, heart rate, or respiratory rate.

    摘要: Devices for therapeutic nasal neuromodulation and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. A system for therapeutic neuromodulation in a nasal region configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a shaft and a therapeutic element at a distal portion of the shaft. The shaft can locate the distal portion intraluminally at a target site inferior to a patient's sphenopalatine foramen. The therapeutic element can include an energy delivery element configured to therapeutically modulate postganglionic parasympathetic nerves at microforamina of a palatine bone of the human patient for the treatment of rhinitis or other indications. In other embodiments, the therapeutic element can be configured to therapeutically modulate nerves that innervate the frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoidal, and maxillary sinuses for the treatment of chronic sinusitis.

    摘要: An ablation probe (100; 200) suitable for insertion through the working channel of an intraluminal delivery device comprises an applicator (102; 202) arranged to apply radiation to heat surrounding tissue. The probe also comprises a feeding cable (104; 204) arranged to supply electromagnetic energy to the applicator (102; 202). The probe further comprises a first coolant flow path (106). There is also a deformable member (110; 210) arranged to move between an insertion configuration in which insertion of the probe is facilitated and a deployed configuration. A second coolant path (108), via which coolant is able to flow, is provided by the deformable member (110; 210) when in the deployed configuration. The probe further comprises a tube arranged to house a distal portion of the feeding cable, and the deformable member surrounds at least part of the tube, and the tube is formed from an elastic material.

    摘要: A method of facilitating access to a neonate through a caesarean incision in the woman's abdomen by opening the incision, includes providing a supporting ring dimensioned to allow delivery of a neonate through the ring and comprising a non-adjustable pelvic-region retractor and handle fixed to the supporting ring and articulating the supporting ring to insert the non-adjustable pelvic-region retractor into the incision to cover and hold back the woman's bladder with the supporting ring disposed over the woman's abdomen. A first adjustable saddle-shaped retractor is then inserted into the incision to cup a first section of abdominal tissue on an abdominal side of the incision, before attaching the first adjustable saddle-shaped retractor to the supporting ring while it is cupping the first section of abdominal tissue at a first position spaced apart from the non-adjustable pelvic-region retractor to anchor the supporting ring to the woman and partially open the incision.
