In certain systems disclosed herein, one or more of a first vascular access port and a second vascular access port can be selected by a customer. Each of the first and second vascular access ports can be implanted subcutaneously within a patient, and each can include a base configured to be attached to a vessel, a body that extends away from the base, and a guidance passageway that extends through the body and the base and includes a funnel region. A maximum height defined by the base and body of the second vascular access port can be greater than a maximum height defined by the base and body of the first vascular access port.

Ports for accessing a vessels within a patient include passageways that can guide needles or other access devices directly into the vessels. The ports can be implanted subcutaneously within a patient. Some ports may be used in the creation and use of vascular access buttonholes.

An implantable venous device includes a catheter including a passage; a locking nut including a channel for receipt of the catheter and an annular convex end; an injection seat including a base, a peripheral wall, and a mounting member projecting out of the wall; a connecting tube projecting out of the mounting member and including a bulged central portion and an annular curved outward end with the locking nut secured onto the bulged central portion; a base member including a groove; a housing including a top opening, a clamping portion on a periphery of the top opening, and a passageway through a bottom edge for receipt of the base member with the injection seat fastened in the housing, and with the locking nut in the groove; and an implant member in the top opening and including a peripheral flange urged downward by the clamping portion.

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a port system including a collapsible reservoir and associated methods thereof. The port can include a body defining a reservoir and formed of a compliant material. The port body can transition between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration. The port can further include a port stem or a base plate, formed of a rigid or needle impenetrable material. The base plate can be aligned with a floor of the reservoir to prevent an access needle from traversing the bottom surface of the reservoir. The port, or the reservoir, can transition to the collapsed configuration to provide a reduced overall size or outer profile for insertion and/or between access events. The port can require a smaller incision site, required fewer stitches or no stitches at all, improving patient recovery times, patient comfort, reducing scarring and improving aesthetics.

An implant for the sustained subcutaneous release of an active ingredient, which implant comprises a housing, which is delimited on a first side by a septum, and an outlet on a second side for the release of an active ingredient, and a reservoir, which is arranged in a cavity of the housing and is designed to receive a liquid containing an active ingredient.

Disclosed is an implantable medical port and methods of using the implantable medical port to deliver and/or to withdraw a desired agent, such as medicines, treatments, or any other fluid into and/or from a body of a subject. The implantable medical port includes two or more needle-penetrable septum portions to provide an increased needle penetration area. Also provided is an implantable medical port having a fluid cavity the contains a substantially needle-impenetrable member that prevents a needle from inadvertently puncturing or otherwise damaging a septum portion other than the septum portion that was initially punctured to gain access to the fluid cavity.

An access port for subcutaneous implantation into a body of a patient is disclosed. The port is typically subcutaneously connected to a catheter, a distal portion of which is disposed within a vein or other vessel of the patient. The port is configured with enhanced fluid handling features to improve fluid flow therethrough while reducing the likelihood of clotting or occlusions in the attached catheter, thus improving system patency. In one embodiment, for instance, an implantable access port is disclosed and comprises a body defining a reservoir, a needle-penetrable septum covering an opening to the reservoir, a stem defining an outlet to the reservoir, and a deformable element included in the reservoir. The deformable element is operably connected to a main portion of the septum and deforms in response to displacement of the septum to counteract a change in volume within the reservoir and prevent blood ingress into the catheter.

An arteriovenous dialysis access graft is configured to be implanted in a body of a subject. The arteriovenous dialysis graft comprises a flexible conduit defining a longitudinal flow passageway. The conduit has a first end portion and a second end portion, the first end portion configured to connect to an artery of the subject and the second end portion configured to connect to a vein of the subject such that blood flows through the longitudinal flow passageway of the conduit from the first end portion to the second end portion. The graft further comprises a first cannulation chamber and a spaced second cannulation chamber with the conduit extending through each of the first chamber and the second chamber. The first chamber is positioned between the first end portion and the second chamber, and the second chamber is positioned between the second end portion and the first chamber. A valve device is positioned between the first cannulation chamber and the second cannulation chamber for controlling fluid flow.

An access port includes a molded housing portion forming a reservoir for receiving fluid. The housing portion includes a shielding plate arranged on an inner base of the housing portion; an open end in which a septum is arranged; an exit passage; and a wall, the shielding plate including a circular portion having a periphery. The lower side and the periphery of the shielding plate are embedded into the housing portion. Furthermore, a shielding plate is insert molded into the housing portion.

A therapeutic agent injection device including an injection device for delivering a therapeutic agent to a patient having a body, the body having a patient face and a port face opposite the patient face, the port face having an introducer port including an introducer channel and an injection port including an injection channel, the introducer channel being in fluid communication with the injection channel through a cross channel, the injection channel defining an injection axis; a delivery tube for subcutaneous delivery of the therapeutic agent to the patient, the delivery tube projecting from and being generally perpendicular to the patient face, the delivery tube defining an introducer axis and being in fluid communication with the injection port; and a patch, the patch being attached to the patient face and being operable to adhesively attach to the patient; wherein the injection axis is parallel to the introducer axis.
