    Abstract: A locking mechanism for a medical device to selective lock a first elongate member from longitudinal movement relative to a second elongate member of the medical device. The locking mechanism includes a flexible tubular member disposed in a bore of a handle assembly of the medical device, and an actuator, such as a cam member having a cam or eccentric surface. Pivotable movement of the actuator from a first position to a second position compresses or deforms the flexible tubular member against the first elongate member to lock the first elongate member from longitudinal movement relative to the handle assembly.

    Abstract: An articulating mechanism for use in a medical device, such as an endoscope or a catheter, includes a series of stacked links disposed adjacent to one another and movable with respect to each other. Each link includes a front face tapered to a pair of pivot points and a rear face defining a wedge shaped recess for receiving the pivot points of the adjacent link. Pull-wires provide tension and hold the staked links together while also allowing for controlled bending of the distal portion by movement of one or more of the pull-wires.

    Abstract: A flexible outer sleeve 70, 170 (partially shown in FIGS. 2 and 7) may be disposed on the outside of the articulation mechanism 10 to provide a smooth exterior surface. The outer sleeve 70, 170 can be made from soft, thin polyurethane, LLDPE, silicon, pellethane, polyurethane, or other approved biocompatible materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyvinyl alcohol. Additionally, the outer sleeve 70, 170 can be coated with a hydrophilic, lubricious coating such as HYDROPASS™ hydrophilic coating available from Boston Scientific Corporation, of Natick, Mass., and described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,702,754 and 6,048,620, which are herein incorporated by reference. Additionally, the outer sleeve 70, 170 can be coated with a drug agent to treat internal body tissues.

    Abstract: Implementations of a delivery device and method are disclosed. One implementation is a delivery device comprising a flow chamber with an inlet port for receiving a fluid flow in the flow chamber, and an outlet port for exiting a material from the flow chamber. The flow chamber may include a formation portion in which a suspension of the material is formed, and a collection portion that directs the suspension toward and/or into the outlet port. An amount of the material may collect in the collection portion adjacent the outlet port. The device may further comprise an insertion port for permitting insertion of the material in the flow chamber, and/or a pusher operable to move the amount of material through the outlet port. Related devices and methods also are disclosed.
