20100087778 | CONTROLLABLE DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE - A controllable drug delivery device for delivering a liquid injectable drug, said device comprising a drug reservoir ( | 04-08-2010 |
20110230955 | EXTERNAL STENT - An external vein support comprising an elongate axial body including an axis, said body is plastically deformable by at least one of stretching, bending, twisting, and any combination thereof, relative to said axis. | 09-22-2011 |
20120316575 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DEPLOYING AN ELONGATE UNIT IN A BODY CAVITY - A system and method are disclosed for deploying an elongated unit in a body cavity, for introducing an interchangeable tool to a slender shaft having a distal end. The system comprising: an elongated unit comprising a longitudinal axis and a distal portion arranged to protrude through a first port into the body cavity. At least one maneuvering unit connected to the elongated unit for maneuvering the distal portion of the elongated unit in a 3D coordinate system to a determined depth and orientation in the body cavity. The at least one maneuvering unit is arranged to selectively deploy the distal portion of the elongated unit at the determined depth and orientation at a distance with respect to the distal end of the slender shaft and selectively align the longitudinal axis thereof with a longitudinal axis of the slender shaft. The elongated unit and/or the slender shaft is arranged advanceable relative each other, such that once the distal portion of the elongated unit is deployed the distal portion of the elongated unit reaches and/or captures the distal end of the slender shaft. | 12-13-2012 |
20140005474 | MICRO LAPAROSCOPY DEVICES AND DEPLOYMENTS THEREOF | 01-02-2014 |
20140066711 | LAPAROSCOPE SYSTEM - A visual system for laparoscopy comprising a visual device having a visual head member and an elongated connector; a manipulation device having a handheld operation portion, an insertion portion and a first contact element; and an external device comprising means to communicate with the vision head member, via the first contact element, when the elongated connector is mounted in an lumen of the insertion portion. The insertion portion of the manipulation device is configured to be extendable out from a body cavity through an airtight passage whereby the elongated connector is configured to be slidably mounted into the lumen of the insertion portion outside of the body cavity upon the insertion portion is withdrawn into the body cavity. | 03-06-2014 |
20140243599 | SURGICAL TOOL INTRODUCER - A tool introducer is configured for introduction in an elongated body including a straight tube, wherein the tube encloses a tube lumen opened at its distal end with a tube opening. The tool introducer includes locking means to selectively lock or unlock an interchangeable surgical tool to the tube from displacing axially and/or rotationally in the tube lumen, the locking means being configured such that, at the locking, a tool connector of the tool projects towards the tube opening and is distanced therefrom by at least 3 cm. A method includes positioning the surgical tool introducer such that a distal portion thereof projects in a body cavity, manipulating and/or extending the tool introducer to reach and engage an elongated shaft introduced percutaneously into the body cavity; and inserting the elongated shaft into the tube lumen via the tube opening and connecting the tool to the elongated shaft. | 08-28-2014 |
20140257462 | METHODS OF SUPPORTING A VEIN - Methods of supporting a vein, featuring deforming a vein support while being mounted on the vein. Such deformation may be sufficient to impose thereupon a plastic deformation that alters a length of the vein support, from a pre-deformation relaxed length to a post-deformation relaxed length different than the pre-deformation relaxed length. Following the plastic deformation, the vein support may maintain a new shape relative to a longitudinal axis thereof. | 09-11-2014 |
20140343365 | Laparoscopic Seal Bridge - A system and method for passing an end portion of a needle system from a body cavity to an outer environment through a laparoscopic port is provided. The system comprises a seal bridge which comprises an elongated body. The seal bridge is telescopically introducible at a first proximal end, through a first lumen in the port and bypassing a seal mechanism of the laparoscopic port. The seal bridge is adapted to be inserted through the proximal opening port to be deployed in the lumen of the port and thereby bridging across and/or deactivating the seal of the port. The method comprises positioning a distal portion of a needle shaft from within the body cavity into the port lumen and across the seal opened by the seal bridge. | 11-20-2014 |
20140358163 | LAPAROSCOPIC GRASPERS - An actuator for controlling a compressive force of a detachable laparoscopic grasper head. The actuator includes a handle unit comprising a movable lever, an outer tube member proximally connected to the handle unit and, when in use, distally connected to a first member of a detachable grasper head, a transmission member which comprises at least partially an elastic portion. The transmission member is axially arranged inside said outer tube member. The transmission member is proximally connected to the movable lever and, when in use, distally connected to a second member of the detachable grasper head. The transmission member is configured to transfer a lever force applied when moving the movable lever for actuating a compressive force by the grasping head depending on the lever force. | 12-04-2014 |
20150017493 | DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE - The present application provides a drug-delivery device comprising a drug reservoir chamber | 01-15-2015 |
