BYPASS SYRINGE
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.
Negative pressure wound closure devices and methods
Systems, devices, and methods of the present application can accelerate and reduce medical complications associated with healing of non-planar wounds such as amputation wounds. The devices and methods utilize a collapsing structure and negative pressure to cause the shaped wound to preferentially close. The structure can accommodate movement over curved tissue surfaces, which can utilize scales or interleaved elements to provide efficient wound closure along arcuate paths. This structure can enable gradual closure from the deepest portion of the wound to the shallowest portion.
Hemostasis band with improved edge design
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.

DEVICES AND METHODS FOR COMPRESSING A DIGIT TO FACILITATE REMOVAL OF A RING
A compression device for freeing a ring trapped on a digit includes a rigid outer body. The rigid outer body includes a digit cavity extending from a cavity opening at a body proximal end of the body towards a body distal end of the body, a fluid inlet, and a fluid flow path fluidly connecting the fluid inlet to one or more inflation chambers positioned in the digit cavity. The body proximal end includes an upper portion, a lower portion, and two laterally spaced-apart side portions. At least one side portion is distally recessed as compared to the upper and lower portions to accommodate an interdigital fold. At least one flexible bladder lines the digit cavity, each flexible bladder defining at least one wall of one of the one or more inflation chambers.
