    摘要: Apparatus and methods for delivering stents or stent segments to body lumens include one or more tubular prostheses carried at the distal end of a catheter shaft, a sheath slidably disposed over the prostheses, and a guidewire tube extending from within the sheath to the exterior of the sheath through an exit port in a sidewall thereof. A guidewire extends slidably through the guidewire tube. The sheath can be moved relative to the catheter shaft and the guidewire tube to expose the prostheses for deployment. Mechanisms are described for measuring the distance that the sheath is moved relative to the catheter shaft and/or the guidewire tube, or for counting the number of stents exposed and/or deployed by operation of the device. These mechanisms include optical counting mechanisms, inductive, resistive, and/or magnetic resonating counters, electrical contact counters, and mechanical counters.

    摘要: According to the present invention, apparatus are provided for applying surgical clips to body tissue with a safety stop for preventing tissue damage resulting from closure of the clip closing mechanism when a clip is not present therein. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a shaft having a distal end and a proximal end; means for closing clips having a pair of forming surfaces, and means for limiting closure of the closing means when a clip is absent therefrom such that a gap separates the forming surfaces in the closed position.

    摘要: Exemplary implantable stimulators for stimulating a stimulation site within a patient include an electronic module configured to generate stimulation and a housing configured to house the electronic module. The housing has a shape allowing the a stimulator and a surgical device to be accommodated together within an insertion tool used to insert the stimulator into the patient. Exemplary methods of stimulating a stimulation site within a patient include generating stimulation with an electronic module and housing the electronic module in a housing. The housing has a shape allowing the housing and a surgical device to be accommodated together within an insertion tool used to insert the housing into the patient.

    摘要: An ocular device applicator that is a combined delaminating and inserting device configured to partially delaminate the corneal epithelium and to place a corrective ocular device onto the delaminated cornea under the partially delaminated epithelium. The ocular device applicator leaves at least a portion of the delaminated corneal epithelium attached to the cornea. The ocular device applicator comprises an edge and an ocular device holder. In some versions an ocular device may be secured in and/or released from the device by force applied in the holder, or by a releasable adhesive. The ocular device applicator may be oscillated to facilitate delamination of the corneal epithelium and placement of an ocular device.

    摘要: An implantable stimulator includes a base, two prongs extending from the base and an electrode disposed on each of the prongs. This stimulator may be part of a system that includes an external device for transcutaneously communicating with the implanted stimulator. A method of using the implantable stimulator includes generating a current gradient between the electrodes on the two prongs to stimulate a target site in a patient. A method of making the implantable stimulator includes coating electrode material on the prongs except where the electrode surfaces are to be formed.
