Abstract: A visualization catheter includes an elongate shaft, a cap portion, and an offset balloon coupled to the distal end of the shaft. The elongate shaft includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a central axis defined therebetween. The cap portion is coupled to the distal end of the shaft. The cap portion also includes a visualization element and defines an aperture. The offset balloon is coupled to the distal end of the shaft and encapsulates the cap portion. The offset balloon defines a center point offset relative to the central axis of the shaft.

Abstract: Imaging devices, imaging systems, and methods are presented for determining distances, depths, and sizes of a viewed tissue or object through a visualization device. The device may include an elongated shaft and an imaging component. The imaging component may extend through the elongated shaft. The imaging component may have a lens and may be configured to capture an image of an area exterior of the elongated shaft in a field of view of the lens. A transparent cover may extend over the lens. The transparent cover may be configured to cause one or more identifiers to appear in the image. The imaging device may include or be used with a computing device to analyze image data of captured images.

Abstract: A direct visualization catheter adapted for transseptal crossing includes at least an outer member, and inner member, a transparent balloon member, and an imaging element. The outer member includes a tubular body extending from a proximal end to a distal end and defines a first lumen there through. The inner member is slidably disposed within the first lumen of the outer member and includes an elongate body with a distal end. The transparent balloon member is coupled between the distal end of the outer member and the distal end of the inner member such that the shape of the transparent balloon member is adjusted by sliding the inner member and the outer member relative to each other. The imaging element is disposed within the balloon member.

Abstract: An example medical system for ablating and occluding the left atrial appendage is disclosed. The example system includes a catheter sized and shaped for vascular access and including an elongate body extending between a proximal end and a distal end. A first expandable member may be positioned near the distal end of the elongate body and have a first region configured to permeate a liquid therethrough. A first set of one or more electrodes may be arranged within the first expandable member and may be configured to deliver energy to the tissue region. An occlusive implant may be releasably secured to the distal end of the elongate body.

Abstract: A vascular introducer hub has a body that includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen defined therethrough. The hub includes first and second seals disposed within the body. The first seal includes a first polymeric material and the second seal includes a second polymeric material. The hub is characterized by the first and second polymeric materials having different durometers.
