A gastrointestinal bypass device includes a gastrointestinal cuff and a gastrointestinal sleeve. The cuff may be configured to be attached in the esophagus, and may be sufficiently flexible to expand and collapse to conform with the inside of the esophagus to allow the esophagus to function substantially normally. The sleeve is configured to be coupled to the cuff, and may be made of a material that is floppy or flaccid but does not substantially expand radially. | 12-05-2013 |
| 20140018734 | Intradermal Delivery Device With Crenellated Skin Engaging Surface Geometry - An apparatus for delivering or withdrawing a fluid through at least one layer of the skin is provided. The device may include a body having a top face, a bottom face, a side edge and at least one channel. The bottom face includes a first surface area and a second surface area adjacent to and recessed at a first distance from the first surface area. The bottom face further includes at least one raised protrusion disposed on the second surface area. The protrusion has a height from the first surface greater than the first distance. At least one dermal-access member is provided in the protrusion and is in fluid communication with the channel to deliver or withdraw the fluid. | 01-16-2014 |
| 20140039391 | APPARATUS FOR INTRAOCULAR INJECTION - An apparatus for intraocular injection comprising a body adapted to accommodate an injection device, a displacement device coupled to a distal end of the body, and a sleeve coupled to the body and axially moveable relative to the body. The displacement device includes at least one rotatable member adapted to contact a superficial layer of an eye, and the sleeve engages and causes rotation of the at least one rotatable member as the sleeve moves from a first axial position to a second axial position. Rotation of the at least one rotatable member displaces the superficial layer relative to an underlying layer of the eye. | 02-06-2014 |
