Attachments for use with a surgical access device
A surgical access attachment for use with a surgical access device is disclosed. The surgical access attachment includes a ring and an access portion assembly. The ring is configured to engage a proximal portion of a surgical access device. The access portion assembly includes at least one flexible tab having an engagement structure. The engagement structure is configured to selectively engage the ring. The access portion assembly is configured to retain a seal. The access portion assembly is configured to disengage from the ring in response to a predetermined amount of force exerted on one flexible tab of the at least one flexible tab.
C-arm cap
A cap for a c-arm medical imaging device with an image intensifier comprises a plate sized and shaped to cover an exterior facing surface of the image intensifier. The plate is transparent to x-rays and has a planar center with a planar outer surface and a planar inner surface to face the image intensifier. A retainer is carried by the plate to retain the plate on the image intensifier.
Protective, sanitary, securable nasal cannula cover
A nasal cannula cover which includes a body having a cavity adapted to receive at least the prongs of a nasal cannula to protect the same from contaminants when the nasal cannula is not in use. Vents are present in the body to facilitate moisture removal from the cavity and discourage bacterial growth. The cover contains a nasal cannula connector with a fastener that temporarily connects the nasal cannula to the cover. The cover further includes an attachment fixture that facilitates connection of the cover to a surface, such as, but not limited to a strap of a bag that a portable oxygen concentrator is carried in, a cart that carries an oxygen tank or concentrator or even a surface in the home, for example a chain, doorknob or home oxygen source, so that the nasal cannula does not come in contact with any unsanitary surface.
HAND-HELD ELECTROMECHANICAL SURGICAL SYSTEM
A hand-held electromechanical surgical device is configured to selectively connect with a surgical accessory. The surgical device includes a power-pack, an outer shell housing, and a gasket. The power-pack is configured to selectively control a surgical accessory. The outer shell housing includes a distal half-section and a proximal half-section, the distal half-section and the proximal half-section together defining a cavity configured to selectively encase substantially the entire power-pack therein. The gasket is located between the distal half-section and the proximal half-section of the outer shell housing. The gasket is configured to create a seal between the distal half-section and the proximal half-section and to provide a sterile barrier between the power-pack and an outside environment outside the outer shell housing.
Systems and methods for storage of sterile devices
In one example, a sterile container may include a tray having a plurality of walls at least partially defining a cavity. At least one of the plurality of walls may include an opening extending therethrough. The sterile container may further include a seal structure coupled to the tray. At least a portion of the seal structure may be received within the opening of the at least one of the plurality of walls. Additionally, the sterile container may include an extension structure coupled to the seal structure.
MODULARLY STRUCTURED LID FOR A STERILE CONTAINER AND FILTER COVERING FOR SUCH A LID
A filter covering for a sterile container lid, for completely covering at least one gas exchange portion, which is provided on a lid component of the sterile container lid, on an outside of the sterile container lid, the filter covering having at least two clip portions arranged opposite to each other on the filter covering, which are adapted to engage in a form-fitting manner in at least two clip receiving portions provided on the lid component, and by which the filter covering is mountable to and dismountable from the lid component without tools.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PACKAGING AND PREPARING A PROSTHETIC HEART VALVE AND ASSOCIATED DELIVERY SYSTEM
A valve cover apparatus for use in a medical assembly including a prosthetic valve and a valve delivery apparatus. The valve cover apparatus includes a housing, a chamber disposed within the housing for receiving a prosthetic heart valve in an at least partially expanded state, a tapered surface defining a portion of the chamber, and a lock ring that is axially movable over at least a portion of the housing between a locked position and an unlocked position. The tapered surface is enables loading and/or guiding of the prosthetic heart valve from the chamber of the valve cover apparatus into a delivery sheath of the valve delivery apparatus and transition the prosthetic heart valve to a radially compressed state. The lock ring restricts movement of the valve cover relative to the delivery sheath when in the locked position, and enables movement of the valve cover when in the unlocked position.
MESH TRAY LID FOR MESH STERILIZING TRAY AND MESH STERILIZING TRAY SYSTEM
A mesh sterilizing tray system and mesh tray lid for a mesh sterilizing tray. The mesh tray lid includes a substantially rectangular plate-like or grid-like basic form which defines an outer side which, when being placed on the mesh sterilizing tray, faces away from the mesh sterilizing tray. A respective detent and/or snap-in device, which is designed for receiving a rod-shaped bar positively and/or in a force-fit manner from a direction substantially perpendicular to the outer side, is formed on two opposite edge portions on the outer side of the mesh tray lid.
