A clipping device includes a clip including a capsule and a pair of clip arms, proximal ends of which are slidably received within the channel to move the clip arms between an open configuration and a closed configuration. Each of the pair of clip arms includes an elongated opening extending through the proximal ends thereof. A connector includes a central portion received between the proximal ends of the clip arms and a pin extending from the central portion receivable within the opening of each of the clip arms, the connector movable from an unlocked configuration, in which the pin is received within a distal portion of the elongated opening, to a locked configuration, in which the pin is received within a proximal portion of the elongated opening, when a predetermined force is applied thereto.

Apparatus and methods are provided for occluding blood vessels and other anatomical structures. Occlusion devices are delivered percutaneously and extraluminally through a small gauge needle and include expandable elements that are deployable on opposite sides of a target vessel to be occluded. When positioned about the vessel the elements are expanded and brought together to compress and occlude the vessel. Embodiments include those adapted for temporary as well as permanent use.

A hemostasis pressure device is disclosed. In one embodiment, the hemostasis pressure device includes a reusable component and a disposable cuff. The disposable cuff includes a pre-inflated pad configured to be placed at an access site on a patient. A knob secured to the reusable component is configured to control the pressure applied to the pre-inflated pad, providing incremental, fine-tuned control of pressure applied to the access site to achieve patent hemostasis.

A device for applying a tissue healing agent includes an insertion member extending longitudinally from a proximal end to a distal end and including a channel extending therethrough, a delivery element including a first surface and a second surface opposing one another, the delivery element movable between a closed configuration, in which the delivery element is compressed to be received within the channel, and an open configuration, in which the delivery element is substantially planar, and a first tissue healing agent formed in a sheet configuration and disposed on the first surface of the delivery element.

A clipping system includes a device including longitudinal slots extending through a wall thereof and a clip releasably received within a distal portion of the device. The clip includes a capsule and a pair of clip arms. Proximal ends of the arms are slidably received within the capsule and a collet is slidably mounted over the device movable between an insertion configuration, in which the collet is positioned over the distal portion of the device pressing the distal portion against the capsule and a deployed configuration, in which the collet is proximal of the distal portion so that the clip is releasable from the device. A control member extends through the channel of the device to couple to the proximal ends of the arms and a portion of the collet. Movement of the member opens and closes the clip and moves the collet between the insertion and deployed configurations.

A clotting agent delivery system comprises a frame, a passageway extending along the frame, a discharge opening connected to the passageway, a clotting agent reservoir fluidly connected to the passageway to hold a clotting agent substance, a valve in the passageway to control flow of the substance through the passageway, and an actuator to allow propellent to flow into the passageway, wherein the valve and clotting agent reservoir cooperate to provide clotting agent substance to the discharge opening at constant pressure using the propellant. A method for delivering a clotting agent comprises inserting a delivery catheter into an anatomic area, coupling a clotting agent delivery system to the delivery catheter, the clotting agent delivery system having a reservoir of a clotting agent, operating a valve to release propellant for propelling the clotting agent, and conveying the propellant and the clotting agent to the delivery catheter at a constant pressure.

The bypass syringe is used in combination with an expandable or inflatable bladder or balloon that is circumferentially wrapped around a patient designed to reduce bleeding from a skin insertion wound site and a vascular wound site after a vascular intervention or surgical procedure is performed. The bypass syringe is designed to pre-inflate the balloon, allow the balloon to relax based on how tightly the band is wrapped around the patient, and then be inflated with a volumetric amount of fluid. The bypass syringe's pre-inflation step will reduce complications caused by variabilities in band securement or tightness. A pre-inflation step combined with a venting of excess air step or controlled pressure inflation steps will absorb/take up/consume excess space caused by variability in band securement and help to reduce complication caused by securement variability.

The present disclosure relates to devices and methods for treating epistaxis. In some embodiments, a device for occluding epistaxis includes a first curvilinear wall, a second curvilinear wall, and a third curvilinear wall each disposed at a top portion of the device. The device has an x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis, and the top portion is relative to the y-axis. The device includes a fourth wall and a fifth wall each disposed at a bottom portion relative to the y-axis of the device. The fourth wall and the fifth wall independently are substantially straight or curvilinear. The device includes a first end including a front first end portion and a back first end portion. The first end is curvilinear corresponding to the first curvilinear wall, and the first end is disposed at an angle relative to the x-axis.

Featured are devices (e.g., peripheral devices) and systems that interact with a device having sensors (e.g., a wearable device or device configured for use with a piece of equipment, such as a vehicle) to receive and process data (e.g., physiological data) from the sensors. Also featured are computer implemented methods including software (e.g., an application) for receiving and processing data by the peripheral device. An application that communicates with the device (e.g., wearable device or equipment device) and sensor information processed by the application or a device running or accessing the application provides situational awareness for users in adverse conditions, such as during combat or wartime. The wearable device may include one or more inflatable bladders configured to apply pressure to a wound site for treatment.

The present application discloses various embodiments of a hemostatic device with improved comfort features over the known prior art, including hemostatic devices having attachment straps with non-linear edges and/or non-planar skin-facing edges.
