    摘要: A system for direct visualization of the spine and the epidural and/or intra-discal space to facilitate diagnosis and treatment of spinal conditions and that is adapted for percutaneous introduction into the spinal space. The system includes a disposable flexible catheter, a fiber-optic bundle disposed within the catheter which is connected to a light source and camera. The bundle is removably and adjustably connected to the proximal end of the catheter to permit rotation of the bundle relative to the catheter. A mechanism for controllably deflecting the tip of the catheter is provided to vary the viewing angle of the fiber-optic bundle within and to assist in steering the catheter through the spinal space. The mechanism includes a deflection wire extending through the catheter and affixed at the distal end thereof. The proximal end of the deflection wire is affixed to a sleeve which is slidably disposed around the catheter and within a housing. The housing includes an internal flange that defines a stop surface which is contacted by the sleeve as the catheter and deflection wire is moved in a first direction. After the sleeve contacts the stop surface, further movement of the catheter in the first direction causes tension in the wire between the sleeve and the wire's securement to the catheter, thereby bending the catheter tip in the direction of the securement. The catheter can be rotated with the tip in its deflected position to provide a conical viewing region within the spinal space.

    摘要: Circuits, systems, and methods are disclosed to eliminate the requirement for an external electromechanical contactor. Integrating contactor circuits with a motor controller reduces cost. Additionally, the cost of the contactor circuit may be reduced by providing transistors designed to block current in only one direction in the event of an electrical fault corresponding to an electrical drive direction.
