摘要:
A medical device including an elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end and an end-effector disposed at the distal end of the elongate member is disclosed. The end-effector further includes a plurality of arms, which may pivot or move relative to one another. Further, each arm includes an inner edge defining a cutting edge, and an outer edge having at least one geometric feature for manipulating tissue.

An embodiment of the invention is directed to a medical instrument that includes a flexible elongate member and a distal assembly. The distal assembly is coupled to a distal end of the elongate member. The distal assembly includes a blunt member and a cutting tool pivotably attached to the blunt member. The blunt member is configured for insertion into a tissue layer. The cutting tool is arranged relative to the blunt member so that the cutting tool does not cut tissue as the blunt member is inserted into the tissue layer.
摘要:
A method and system of making information from an application accessible to an electronic device, comprising: checking, via a log monitor, a third party log file for a new log entry; sending any new log entries in the third party log file to a rules engine, the rules engine comprising at least one rule; determining if any of the new log entries violate any rules in the rules engine; making accessible any new log entries that violate any rules to the electronic device; creating an alert based on the new log entry that violates at least one rule; and notifying users of the alert using alert criteria to determine who should receive the alerts and when, wherein different users receive different alerts based on the alert criteria.

This invention is directed to a flexible device, a first elongate member configured to move the flexible device in a first direction, and a second elongate member configured to move the flexible device in a second direction. The flexible device can include a plurality of articulation links, wherein at least one of the plurality of articulation links can include a body configured to receive the first elongate member and the second elongate member. A cinching element may engage the first elongate member to substantially limit movement between the plurality of articulation links when a tensile force is applied to the first elongate member and may disengage the first elongate member to permit movement between the plurality of articulation links when a tensile force is applied to the second elongate member.

This invention is directed to a medical device with a handle and a catheter. The handle can include a body having a proximal end and a distal end, an actuator moveably coupled to the body, and a handle control member coupled to the actuator, wherein the actuator can be configured to move relative to the body to move the handle control member. The catheter can include a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the proximal end of the shaft and the distal end of the body can be configured for releasable coupling. The catheter can also include a steering section located along the shaft and a catheter control member coupled to the steering section. A securing member may move relative to at least one of the handle and the catheter to releasably couple the handle control member to the catheter control member.
摘要:
A power distribution system comprising a cabinet configured to hold electronic components therein. An outside surface of the cabinet has one or more electrical termination contacts thereon such that a surface of the electrical termination contacts is part of the outside surface. The electrical termination contacts are configured to be coupled to an external DC power source at the outside surface.
