摘要： A medical device, method and system of treating the lumenal system of a patient are provided. The medical device includes a tissue plicator adapted and configured to form a plication of tissue proximate a target region of a patient. The medical device further includes a retainer applicator operatively associated with the tissue plicator. The retainer applicator is adapted and configured to apply a retainer to the plication to maintain the plication after the medical device is removed from the patient. In accordance with a further aspect, the tissue plicator may plicate tissue by mechanically clamping the tissue and/or may plicate the tissue at least in part by applying suction thereto. The system can be used to plicate tissue proximate the mitral valve of a patient. The plication can be formed temporarily or permanently.

摘要： An endoluminal device slippage sensor system including an electrically conductive endoluminal device and a catheter assembly to which the device is coupled for deployment into a lumen. First, second and third electrodes are associated with the catheter assembly, each respectively in direct electrical contact with a proximal, a middle and a distal portion of the device. A potential source generates a potential between the first and second electrodes and between the second and third electrodes. The potential between the electrodes is varied in accordance with a change of position of the device along the axis of the catheter assembly during deployment in which the proximal or distal portion of the device is disconnected from the first or third electrode, respectively. In accordance with another embodiment of the invention there is provided an endoluminal device slippage sensor system including an electrically conductive endoluminal device and a catheter assembly to which the device is coupled for deployment into a lumen. At least two electrodes are mounted longitudinally along the length of the catheter assembly, each of the electrodes being in direct electrical contact with the device. A potential source generates a potential between the electrodes, the potential between the electrodes being varied in accordance with a change of position of the device along the axis of the catheter assembly.
