摘要: Flexible tubular liner coating systems are described herein. A method for coating and forming the flexible tubular inner liner may comprise, in one example, coating at least a first surface of a flexible elongate strip having a first and a second edge and then bringing the first and second edges of the flexible elongate strip into proximity of one another. Once the edges are brought towards one another, they may be joined such that a flexible tubular liner is formed having the coated first surface formed as an inner surface of the flexible tubular liner.

摘要: Apparatus and methods of monitoring gastric restriction devices are described. Internally mounted sensors detect at least one of a quantity of a test substance, a flow through the stomal opening produced by a restriction device, slippage of the device, and erosion of the gastric wall. In some embodiments flow versus no flow can be determined, or a flow rate can be calculated. Monitoring of internally mounted sensors permits optimization of the performance of a gastric restriction device, using noninvasive techniques.

摘要: Helical tissue manipulation instruments and methods of their use are described herein. A helical tissue engager is adapted to reversibly engage tissue and is positioned upon a flexible shaft which is advanceable through a rigidizable endoscopic assembly. The flexible shaft defines a marked section proximal to the tissue engager which can include any number of markings, designs, patterns, projections, textures, etc., which acts to provide a visual indication to the user as to the translational movement, rotation, direction of rotation, etc., of the tissue engager and the shaft. An optional guidewire can be advanced through the tissue engager. Additionally, the tissue engager and shaft can be advanced through an optional tubular sheath which may be used for dilating tissue openings prior to passage of the helical engager through the tissue opening.

摘要: An interspinous process device is configured for placement between adjacent spinous processes on a subject's spine. The device includes a housing configured for mounting to a first spinal process, the housing having a lead screw fixedly secured at one end thereof. A magnetic assembly is at least partially disposed within the housing and configured for mounting to a second spinal process. The magnetic assembly includes a hollow magnet configured for rotation within the magnetic assembly, the hollow magnet comprising a threaded insert configured to engage with the lead screw. An externally applied magnetic field rotates the hollow magnet in a first direction or a second, opposite direction. Rotation of the hollow magnet in the first direction causes telescopic movement of the magnetic assembly out of the housing (i.e., elongation) and rotation in the second direction causes telescopic movement of the magnetic assembly into the housing (i.e., shortening).
