Patent application number | Description | Published |
20080200758 | Endo-surgical Device and Method - What is provided is an endo-surgical tool that includes imaging optics therein, the various components of which, including its tools, electronics and visualization components, can be used in the sterile surgical field. In one particular embodiment of the invention, the cannula portion of the tool is adapted to a particular type of endo-surgical procedure, while the handle, which includes at least a portion of the imaging circuitry for the device, can be used with a plurality of differently adapted cannulas. | 08-21-2008 |
20080200871 | Valve System For a Medical Device Having an Inflatable Member - Methods and apparatus for treating the interior of a blood vessel include a variety of improved catheter designs, methods and apparatus for accessing and occluding a blood vessel. | 08-21-2008 |
20090209907 | Single-Use Indicator For A Surgical Instrument And A Surgical Instrument Incorporating Same - A single-use indicator is provided and is particularly well suited for use with a surgical catheter device. The indicator includes an absorbent filament or wick which is placed in a transparent or translucent indicator lumen of a multi-lumen catheter. The lumen is provided with at least one side port. When the catheter is inserted into a blood vessel, blood enters the indicator lumen through the side port and is absorbed by the filament, thus turning the filament red or purple in color. When the instrument is removed from the blood vessel, the stained filament is clearly visible as an indicator that the instrument has been used. Because the filament is trapped inside a lumen of a relatively long catheter, it is difficult or impossible to remove it during a remanufacturing process. | 08-20-2009 |
20090299369 | Hybrid Orthopedic Implant - A hybrid orthopedic implant is provided. The implant includes a hybrid plate including a metal skeleton engaged with a plastic covering. Holes passing through the hybrid plate receive screws therethrough, to secure the hybrid plate to bone. | 12-03-2009 |
20150039017 | METHODS AND DEVICES FOR ENDOVASCULAR EMBOLIZATION - The present disclosure describes an occlusion device and methods of delivering the occlusion device. The occlusion device can include an expandable structure configured to move between an unexpanded configuration and an expanded configuration. The expandable structure can be configured to have an expansion ratio of at least about 5:1. Further, the occlusion device can be configured to prevent substantially all fluid from flowing past the occlusion device when the occlusion device is in the expanded configuration in the vessel. | 02-05-2015 |
