Abstract:
A stent delivery device having a locking mechanism. The device includes a handle assembly, an elongate inner member, and an elongate outer tubular member surrounding the elongate inner member. The handle assembly includes a handle attached to one of the inner member and the outer tubular member, and an actuator attached to the other of the inner member and the outer tubular member. Actuation of the actuator relative to the handle between a first position and a second position causes axial movement of the outer tubular member relative to the inner member. The locking mechanism has a locked position in which the actuator is prevented from moving from the first position to the second position and an unlocked position in which the actuator is permitted to move from the first position to the second position.
Abstract:
A system for treating tissue includes a clip assembly including a pair of clip arms, each of the clip arms extending from a proximal end to a distal end, the proximal end of the clip arms connected to one another via a central member slidably received within a channel of a capsule to be moved between a tissue receiving configuration and a closed configuration, a cartridge for encasing the clip assembly including a groove formed therein to accommodate the clip assembly and an opening extending thereinto in communication with a portion of the groove such that the groove is open to an exterior of the cartridge via the opening, and an applicator releasably connectable to the clip assembly to move the clip assembly between the open and closed configurations, a distal portion of the applicator insertable through the opening of the cartridge to be connected to the clip assembly.
Abstract:
Some embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a stent loading and delivery device, and methods for making and using the device. The device includes a handle assembly and an outer tubular member extending distally from the handle assembly. A proximal end of the outer tubular member is attached to a first handle of the handle assembly. The device includes an intermediate tubular member slidably disposed within the outer tubular member and an inner elongate member extending distally from the handle assembly within the intermediate tubular member. A stent constrainment mechanism is attached to a distal end of the intermediate tubular member and can receive a stent into a distal opening of the stent constrainment mechanism in an expanded state. Upon longitudinal actuation of the outer tubular member the stent constrainment mechanism collapses radially inward around the stent to constrain it within the outer tubular member.

Abstract:
According to an aspect, a medical device may include a needle member, and a handle coupled to the needle member. The handle may define a track portion. The medical device may also include a pusher member having a sheath disposed around a portion of the needle member, and an extension member being movably coupled to the track portion of the handle such that the pusher member is configured to move from a first position to a second position during a surgical procedure. The pusher member may be removable from the handle. The sheath may define a slot, and the pusher member may be removable from the needle member through the slot.
