An implantable inflatable device includes a fluid reservoir defining a cavity, an inflatable member, a pump assembly configured to transfer fluid from the fluid reservoir to the inflatable member, and a programmable control module, the programmable control module being configured activate the pump assembly to transfer fluid from the fluid reservoir to the inflatable member.

The present disclosure includes prosthetic devices, including implants for joints and external prosthetics. The prosthetic devices allow for full articulation of the joint, while absorbing impact of the components during normal use that will reduce wear on the device components and prolong life. The device may include a bone implantable component and a bearing component having an articulation surface that is sized and shaped to substantially mate with at least a portion of the bone implantable component and a damping mechanism that includes a contact member disposed at least primarily inside a cavity; a biasing member biasing the contact member toward an upper aperture of the cavity and means for capturing the contact member within the cavity.

A system and method for collecting operation data associated with a medical apparatus including an internal device implanted in a subject and an external device that is magnetically-coupled to and drives the internal device. The medical apparatus may be monitored to obtain raw data associated with the operation of the medical apparatus and one or more calculations may be performed on the raw data, wherein the raw data and/or calculated values may be associated with voiding frequency and voiding volume of the subject. A report may be generated from the raw data and/or calculated values. In addition, one or more signals may be sent to the external device and/or a docking station, or communicated by other means, to indicate to the subject that the operation of the medical apparatus should be altered.

The disclosure relates to a self-accommodating lens, which is formed in particular as contact lens. A plurality of actuators are arranged in a star-shaped manner on the front side of the lens body. The angle to the adjacent lens is determined by detection of a directional radio signal.

Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) assembly into an eye may be provided. A device for delivery of the IOL into the eye may include a housing; a nozzle operatively coupled to the housing; a first cylinder movably disposed within the housing; a second cylinder movably disposed within the housing, wherein the second cylinder is in fluid communication with the first cylinder; a plunger at least partially and movably disposed within the first cylinder; and a shaft movably disposed within the second cylinder, wherein the shaft is configured to move toward the lens component.

Systems and methods for delivering and implanting heart valves are disclosed. The delivery systems can include an integrated introducer. The integrated introducer can include a sheath having an inner diameter that is smaller than the outer diameter of a delivery capsule of the delivery system and an outer diameter that is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the delivery capsule. The integrated introducer can include a hub having a hemostatic seal. The hub can have a locking mechanism configured to fix the integrated introducer in place on the delivery system.

According to an aspect, an implant includes a sheath defining a lumen, a cable member disposed within the lumen defined by the sheath, and a tensioner. The tensioner is configured to engage the cable to apply tension to the sheath.

The invention relates to a prosthetic system including; an implanted device including: at least one inflatable element (1) that can be inflated in response to a pressure of a fluid; a tank (2) for the fluid in communication with the inflatable element; a sealed case (3) in which is mounted a motor-driven pump supplied with energy by a wireless energy transfer system, part of which (30) is mounted in the case, this pump being in communication on the one hand with the inflatable element via a one-way discharge obturator and on the other hand with the tank via a one-way suction obturator; a manual command for deflating the inflatable element (1) acting simultaneously on the one-way suction and discharge obturators; the control case (B) integrating another part of the energy transfer system and ensuring the control of the operation of the energy transfer system.

A bone lengthening system for tumor prostheses includes a prosthesis, wherein the prosthesis includes an internal battery arranged for a wireless charging; the bone lengthening system further includes an extendable mechanism connected to the prosthesis and the extendable mechanism is arranged to be lengthened for, when in use, bringing a length of a limb provided with the prosthesis to a value corresponding to a length of a healthy limb based on healthy limb length data.

An inflatable penile prosthesis may include a fluid reservoir configured to hold fluid, an inflatable member, and a pump assembly configured to transfer fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member. The pump assembly may include a pump bulb, a valve block, a plurality of valves disposed within the valve block, a first fluid port in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir, and a second fluid port in fluid communication with the inflatable member. The plurality of valves includes a control valve configured to move between an inflation position and a deflation position to control the flow of fluid within the valve block and the transfer of fluid between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member.
