Abstract: Example ultrasound medical devices are disclosed. An example medical device includes a support member having a proximal end region and a distal end region and a sensing member having a proximal end region and a distal end region, the distal end region of the sensing member coupled to the distal end region of the support member. The medical device also includes one or more ultrasound sensors disposed along the sensing member and a support shaft having a first end coupled to the sensing member and a second end coupled to the support member. Additionally, the sensing member is configured to shift from a first configuration in which the sensing member is adjacent to the support member to a second configuration in which at least a portion of the sensing member extends away from the support member.

Abstract: An imaging system and methods are presented for determining a size of a viewed object through a monocular endoscope. The system includes an imaging device mounted on the endoscope, at least one light source disposed in a fixed position relative to the imaging device, and a processor configured to receive input from the imaging device and analyze at least one of shadow effect from the light source, structured lighting provided by the light source, multi-point illumination including the light source, time-of-flight involving light pulses from the light source, and lateral color aberrations from the light source to determine the size of the viewed object.

Abstract: A fluid management and medical device system may include a fluid management system and a medical device. The fluid management system may include a pump configured to pump fluid to the medical device and a processing device configured to control the pump to maintain a target fluid flow range. The medical device may include an elongate shaft in fluid communication with the pump of the fluid management system, a pressure sensor, and a workstation in electronic communication with the pressure sensor and the processing device of the fluid management system. The processing device may be configured to adjust a fluid flow rate based on data received from the pressure sensor of the medical device and configured to verify the medical device is in a patient's body prior to adjusting the fluid flow rate based on the data received from the pressure sensor.

Abstract: A fluid management system may include an inflow pump providing a fluid inflow to a medical device, at least one pressure sensor, and a controller configured to receive pressure signals from the at least one pressure sensor, the pressure signals corresponding to a system pressure within the fluid management system. The controller may be configured to detect which one of a plurality of medical devices is fluidly connected to the inflow pump based on the pressure signals from the at least one pressure sensor and an rpm of the inflow pump.

Abstract: Systems and methods for treating a patient may include accessing an anatomical structure with a single use visualization device, using the imaging capabilities of the single use visualization device within the anatomical structure, and in some cases, advancing the single use visualization device beyond the anatomical structure to and toward another anatomical structure within the patient. Disposable elements may be used with or added to the single use visualization device to accomplish tasks normally performed with reusable devices.

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 fluid management system may include an inflow pump configured to pump fluid from a fluid supply source to a treatment site within a patient at a flow rate; and a controller configured to operate at a target flow rate in a flow control mode. In the flow control mode, the controller may be configured to maintain the target flow rate while monitoring a measured pressure communicated to the controller from a pressure sensor. When the measured pressure reaches a preset pressure threshold, the controller may be configured to automatically switch from the flow control mode to a pressure override mode in which the controller automatically reduces the flow rate below the target flow rate to return the measured pressure at or below the preset pressure threshold.
