Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method of cosmetic or biomedical application of a device, comprising a self-contained syringe device comprising an inner syringe included within an outer syringe and wherein a filter is attached inside the outer syringe barrel; wherein the filter comprises a filter material that prevents premature filter collapse where the filter material is optionally coated to increase stiffness, and wherein liposuctioned adipose tissue is collected and purified inside the syringes.

Methods and devices for treatment of damaged tissue are disclosed, including treatment of wounds by employing non-electrically powered, reduced pressure therapy devices. Maintenance and control of the sub atmospheric pressure exerted may be provided by such devices while minimizing discomfort to the user. The devices may be configured to be worn inconspicuously underneath clothing.

A tube end (14) of a barrel (12) of an injector (1) includes a tubular portion (921) on which a spiral projection (925) is formed, and an inner circumferential surface of the tubular portion is a female tapered surface (922). A small-diameter portion (16) is formed between a liquid storing portion (15) into which a plunger (18) is inserted and the tubular portion (921). A base end (21) of a liquid collection needle (20) is fluid-tightly connected to the small-diameter portion (16), and a leading end of the liquid collection needle (20) protrudes from the tube end (14).

Some systems, devices and methods detailed herein provide fat harvesting from a body location, material screening, size selection, and extraction for fat preparation prior to reinjection into another body location.

Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, positioning a distal portion of a catheter proximate to the clot material within the blood vessel. The method can further include coupling a pressure source to the catheter via a tubing subsystem including a valve or other fluid control device and, while the valve is closed, activating the pressure source to charge a vacuum. The valve can then be opened to apply the vacuum to the catheter to thereby aspirate at least a portion of the clot material from the blood vessel and into the catheter.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for delivering at least one agent to a wound site. The method includes the steps of providing a delivery tube having an outlet at a wound site, covering the wound site with a drape and introducing agent at an agent inlet port of the delivery tube. The agent passes along the delivery tube through the drape to the wound site. The agent can be a wide variety or mixture of fluids such as but not limited to pain relief medicament, anti-biotics, saline solution and/or hydrating fluid.

A method is disclosed for clearing effusion from an ear. The method may include applying liquid to an ear canal, which is proximal to a perforated tympanic membrane, which is proximal to a middle ear containing effusion, applying an ear device to seal and pressurize the liquid inside the ear canal, the ear device regulating the amount of pressure inside the ear canal, and inducing a Eustachian tube, which is distal to the middle ear, to open, which causes the fluid to displace the effusion into the Eustachian tube.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a device for removing adipose tissue, comprising a self-contained syringe device comprising an inner syringe included within an outer syringe and wherein a filter is attached inside the outer syringe barrel; wherein the filter comprises a filter material that prevents premature filter collapse where the filter material is optionally coated to increase stiffness, and wherein liposuctioned adipose tissue is collected and purified inside the syringes. Methods of using the devices or system are also disclosed.
