Abstract: A stent delivery device is provided that includes an inner member defining a distal tip and a stent holding region, and an outer tubular member slidingly disposed over the inner member and configured to engage the distal tip. Seal members may be disposed on one or more of an outer surface of the inner member, the distal tip, and the outer tubular member. The seal members define a liquid-tight sealed chamber surrounding the stent holding region.

Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to biopsy devices, systems, and methods for tissue sample acquisition, such as during fine-needle aspiration. Several embodiments are particularly directed to biopsy devices with features to facilitate accessing, acquiring, and/or retaining one or more tissue samples from a target biopsy site. In one embodiment, for example, a biopsy device may include an elongate member having an insert disposed within a lumen of an elongate member. The insert may be configured to mate with a needle disposed in the lumen to maintain a rotational orientation of the needle. In another embodiment, a needle may include multiple openings for acquiring a tissue sample. In yet another embodiment a helical component may be disposed in a needle lumen to acquire and retain tissue samples.

Abstract: This disclosure provides design, material, manufacturing method, and use alternatives for medical devices. An example medical device may include a medical device for delivery of a surgical closure member. The medical device includes an elongate tubular member having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen extending therein. The elongate tubular member is adapted to be delivered through the working channel of an endoscope and the lumen is adapted to receive a surgical closure member. The medical device also includes a tissue support extending from the distal end of the elongate tubular member. The tissue support includes a support surface and the support surface is adapted to support tissue as a surgical closure member engages the tissue thereon.
