摘要:
A drainage catheter hub having a rotatable lever handle adapted to secure a suture thread to maintain the anchor configuration of the distal end of the catheter to secure the position of the catheter within the patient's body. The rotatable lever handle has a released position for allowing movement of the suture and a secured position for preventing movement of the suture. A suture securement ridge adapted to secure the proximal portion of the suture that may otherwise remain loose during the procedure. The rotatable lever handle and associated rotatable barrel can be depressed relative to hub body in a locked configuration to prevent inadvertent rotational movement of the rotatable lever handle and a release slot or release button that can be actuated by the practitioner to allow for rotational movement of the rotatable lever handle.

A catheter kit including a drainage catheter hub having a rotatable lever handle adapted to secure a suture thread to maintain the anchor configuration of the distal end of the catheter to secure the position of the catheter within the patient's body. The rotatable lever handle has a released position for allowing movement of the suture and a secured position for preventing movement of the suture. A rotatable lever handle adapted to secure the proximal portion of the suture that may otherwise remain loose during the procedure. The rotatable lever handle and associated rotatable barrel can be depressed relative to hub body in a locked configuration to prevent inadvertent rotational movement of the rotatable lever handle and a release slot or release button that can be actuated by the practitioner with a release tool to allow for rotational movement of the rotatable lever handle.

The drainage catheter hub includes a locking cam for securing a suture to maintain an anchor configuration of the distal end of the drainage catheter. The locking cam is rotatable to a first position for securing the suture and a second position for releasing the suture. The locking cam includes a tapered surface which includes a release portion and a securement portion. The release portion allows movement of the suture while the securement portion cooperatively engages the suture in connection with the seat to minimize movement of the suture.
摘要:
A reversible lockable drainage catheter for use in draining excess bodily fluid in a tissue having a catheter tube with a proximal end and a distal end, and a lockable hub positioned about the catheter tube. A suture of the drainage catheter can be reversibly tensioned, and locked in the tensioned conformation by depressing one or more surfaces of the lockable hub. The suture can then be released also by depressing one or more surface of the lockable hub, or by implementing one or more additional safety release mechanisms. For example, a safety release can be pulled in a proximal direction to release a tensioned suture. Similarly, the suture can be tensioned to a point that stretches an attachment point of the drainage catheter tube, and also causes the suture and safety release mechanism to disengage.

A drainage catheter having a weld to secure the distal end of the catheter in an anchor configuration. The suture is welded into a loop at the distal end of the suture to secure the anchor configuration of the distal end of the catheter either directly or by securing the suture to a stylet positioned in the catheter wall. A plurality of drainage bores are positioned on the inside diameter of the anchor loop to provide advantageous draining of fluid into the lumen of the catheter. The drainage catheter includes a stylet and stylet lumen positioned in the sidewall of the catheter approximately 90 degrees from the inside diameter of the catheter tube and drainage allowing the drainage bores on the inside diameter of the drainage catheter to operate without obstruction from the stylet and suture.
摘要:
A drainage catheter hub for use in connection with a drainage catheter to receive and secure a suture therein, wherein the hub includes: (i) a housing having a channel to accommodate the suture therein; (ii) a bistable locking mechanism positioned in the housing and being adapted to provide selective securement of the suture; and (iii) a resilient outer layer utilized in connection with the bistable locking mechanism and coupled to the housing. The bistable locking mechanism is configured to: (i) allow movement of the suture when the bistable locking mechanism is in a first position; and (ii) minimize axial movement of the suture when the bistable locking mechanism is in a second position. The resilient outer layer is adapted to allow a user to actuate the bistable locking mechanism between the first and second positions to selectively secure and release the suture.

A catheter anchor device for use with a catheter includes an adhesive layer configured to be secured to the skin of the patient proximate the catheter insertion site, a stationary base secured to the adhesive layer, a rotatable ring coupled to the stationary base and circumscribing the stationary base such that the rotatable outer ring can be rotated by the user relative to the stationary base, a first suture including a loop portion and first and second ends, the loop portion looping around a catheter when the anchor device is in place relative to the catheter insertion site, and a pull handle including first and second separable pull tabs, the pull handle being coupled to the first and second ends of the first suture, the pull handle being configured such that actuation of the pull handle actuates first suture to secure the catheter relative to the rotatable ring.
摘要:
An introducer sheath having a main body, a sheath, one or more connections to one or more corresponding entry lines, and a stop cock delivery valve. The stop cock can connect to at least one of the entry lines, and can further connect to a fluid source, thereby providing a manipuable delivery interface from the fluid source to the introducer sheath housing. A rotator can interface at a point between the introducer sheath and the stop cock, allowing a user to configure the stop cock to conformations that can be easily accessible for right or left handed users, as appropriate for the position of the introducer sheath housing.

A bio-waste container with integrated needle stop is disclosed. The apparatus includes a catch basin and a waste opening. The catch basin is configured to hold biological and other material, and the waste opening provides an aperture through which such biological and other materials can be deposited in the catch basin during the course of the procedure. The bio-waste container also includes an integrated needle stop apparatus having a cushion layer providing a depository for needles and other sharp tipped objects. The needle stop apparatus further includes a puncture resistant layer which prevents the needles or other sharp tipped objects from penetrating beyond the cushion layer. The needle stop apparatus is secured to the bio-waste container in such a way that it is securely coupled to the bio-waste container during shipping and use, but is selectively removeable from the bio-waste container for separate disposal.
