KIDNEY STONE TREATMENT SYSTEM

Kidney stone removal system is disclosed having components including a handle mechanism, a nozzle tip, and a guiding device. The handle mechanism employs a trigger that enables control of irrigation and vacuum/suction. Depression of a trigger in the trigger mechanism conveys status of vacuum/suction and irrigation to a user by providing increased resistance at different points of depression. When the trigger is in a home (undepressed) position, irrigation and vacuum/suction are turned off. When the trigger is in a fully depressed position, irrigation and vacuum/suction are turned on. When the trigger is in an intermediate position, irrigation may be turned on, while vacuum/suction remains turned off. The nozzle includes one or more irrigation ports positioned at a distal end of the nozzle and having an irrigation port departure angle of 30 to 60 degrees for directing irrigation fluid forward and laterally from the distal end of the nozzle. The guiding device is configured to be removably positioned in the nozzle for receiving a debris fragmentizing device, such as a laser device. The guiding device is configured to prevent an unintended movement of the fragmentizing device when the fragmentizing device is positioned in the nozzle while allowing fluid and debris to flow past the fragmentizing device and through a vacuum tube.

System and methods for removing undesirable material within a circulatory system during a surgical procedure
12446904 · 2025-10-21 · ·

A method for capturing dislodged vegetative growth during a surgical procedure is provided. The method includes maneuvering, into a circulatory system, a first cannula having a distal end and an opposing proximal end, such that the first cannula is positioned to capture the vegetative growth en bloc. A second cannula is positioned in fluid communication with the first cannula, such that a distal end of the second cannula is situated in spaced relation to the distal end of the first cannula. A suction force is provided through the distal end of the first cannula so as to capture the vegetative growth. Fluid removed by the suction force is reinfused through the distal end of the second cannula. Subsequent to becoming dislodged, the vegetative growth is captured by the first cannula. A method for capturing a vegetative growth during removal of a pacemaker lead is also provided.

Baby Nasal Aspirator
20250375562 · 2025-12-11 ·

The Baby Nasal Aspirator is an advanced medical device engineered to alleviate nasal congestion in infants by efficiently removing mucus from their nasal passages. The device comprises a nasal tip, which is gently inserted into the baby's nostril to collect mucus. This mucus is then transported to a detachable mucus trap, ensuring easy disposal and hygienic operation. The mucus trap is connected via tubing to the main aspirator unit, which generates the necessary suction to extract the mucus. A key feature of the Baby Nasal Aspirator is its suction control mechanism, facilitated by a hole port that allows the caregiver to adjust the suction intensity, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience for the infant. The detachable design of the mucus trap simplifies cleaning and maintenance, promoting long-term usability. This device offers a practical solution for managing nasal congestion in infants, contributing to their respiratory comfort and overall health.

CATHETER SYSTEM FOR TREATING THROMBOEMBOLIC DISEASE HAVING DEEP PULSATILE SUCTION WITH DIFFERENTIAL FLOW AND METHOD OF USING SAME
20260053514 · 2026-02-26 ·

A vacuum aspiration system and methods of use are disclosed. The system and method can be configured to provide deep pulsatile suction to a catheter body to more efficiently aspirate a clot material from a patient. In some embodiments, a deep pulse can include a rapid increase in flow rate of the fluid through the catheter body to a sustained high flow rate range for a short period of time followed by a rapid decrease in the flow rate to a low or negligible flow rate level to minimize blood loss without any changes to the suction pressure being applied to the catheter.
