    Abstract: A device for deploying a suture clip onto a suture can include a proximal handle portion that includes an actuation mechanism. The device can also include an outer shaft defining an inner lumen. A crimping assembly can be at least partially disposed within a distal end of the outer shaft. The crimping assembly can include a plurality of crimping members configured to receive and radially compress a suture clip. The actuating mechanism can be configured to move the plurality of crimping members radially inwardly from a first position, where the crimping members are configured to receive a suture clip, to a second position where the plurality of crimping members are configured to radially compress the suture clip, causing the suture clip to plastically deform and become secured around one or more sutures.

    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for securing sutures that obviate the need for tying knots. Instead of tying two ends of a suture or two sutures together with a knot, two or more suture portions can be fused or cauterized together using heat. A device can be applied to adjacent suture portions that heats the suture portions and causes the suture portions to fuse together, effectively securing the suture portions together without a knot.

    Abstract: The present disclosure concerns embodiments of multi-lumen cannulae that can be used in various different medical procedures. The multi-lumen cannulae can comprise an elongated body comprising multiple different ports that connect to various different sidewall lumens contained within the elongated body. The multi-lumen cannulae can also comprise a central lumen that extends through the entire elongated body and can be fluidly connected to the various different sidewall lumens. The multi-lumen cannulae can further comprise two balloons on an exterior of the elongated body, which can be used to isolate a right atrium of a patient's heart.

    Abstract: A venous drainage cannula, catheter, or other device is in certain embodiments convertible or adjustable for application in cardiac surgery procedures involving cardiopulmonary bypass. Such a convertible cannula device can be modified, for example, for use as both a multi-stage cannula and a bi-caval cannula, so that the same device can be used in multiple different procedures where one or the other cannula type is needed. Such convertible cannula or other device can simplify and reduce a number of parts needed for a bypass procedure, by providing one adjustable and versatile device to serve multiple functions where different cannulae are traditionally required. Various embodiments further provide cannula devices where a variety of different hole or opening arrangements and configurations can be achieved, to adapt to various different procedures.

    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for securing sutures that obviate the need for tying knots. Instead of tying two ends of a suture or two sutures together with a knot, two or more suture portions can be fused or cauterized together using heat. A device can be applied to adjacent suture portions that heats the suture portions and causes the suture portions to fuse together, effectively securing the suture portions together without a knot. Such devices can include a shaft, a heating element positioned within the shaft, and a suture holder at the distal end of the shaft. The holder in an open position receives sutures and in a closed position holds the sutures. Actuation of the device causes the heating element to apply heat and fuse together sutures held by the holder. The holder can separate from the fused sutures after the sutures are fused together.
