A stapling assembly comprising a first jaw, a second jaw, an elongate channel configured to receive a staple cartridge, a firing member configured to perform a firing stroke, a biasing element, and a rotary drive shaft is disclosed. The staple cartridge comprises staple cavities, staples, staple drivers, and a sled. The firing member comprises a cutting edge, a first camming member, and a second camming member. The biasing element comprises a spring and is movable between an initial position and a displaced position. The rotary drive shaft is movable between a first position and a second position relative to the elongate channel. The rotary drive shaft is moved from the first position to the second position by the staple cartridge when the staple cartridge is inserted into the elongate channel and moves the biasing element to the displaced position against a distal biasing force of the spring.

The present disclosure provides compositions, e.g., formulations, used for gastric, gastrointestinal and/or colonic treatments or lavage, e.g., orthostatic lavage, e.g., for inducing the purgation (e.g., cleansing) of a gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including a colon. compositions of the invention are used for the stabilization, amelioration, treatment and/or prevention of constipation, for the treatment of abdominal pain, particularly non-specific abdominal pain, and diarrhea, including diarrhea caused by a drug side effect, a psychological condition, a disease or a condition such as Crohn's Disease, a poison, a toxin or an infection, e.g., a toxin-mediated traveler's diarrhea, or C. difficile or the pseudo-membranous colitis associated with this infection.

The present technology relates generally to a method and device for closing percutaneous punctures, and more particularly to a multi-lumen tamper for such a device. A closure device for sealing a percutaneous puncture in a wall of a body passageway is disclosed, the closure device including a plug configured to engage a surface of the puncture; a toggle configured to engage an internal surface of the body passageway; an elongate filament configured to associate the plug with the toggle; a locking member configured to engage the plug; and a tamper comprising at least two lumens, wherein a first lumen of the at least two lumens is configured to deliver a pharmaceutical agent to the plug.

A medical connector includes a medical device connection portion communication passage defined by a housing and a valve body to guide a fluid from a first medical device connection portion to a second medical device connection portion. In the medical connector, a male connector inserted into the a connector connection portion presses a head portion of the valve body while contracting and deforming a body portion, and a fluid is guided from the male connector connection portion to the medical device connection portion communication passage, through a gap formed between the head portion and the housing.
