An everting balloon system is disclosed that can be used for the placement of an IUD within the uterine cavity of a female patient. The everting balloon system with IUD can be used to access a uterine cavity at specific locations in the fundus. A one-handed IUD delivery system for placement with an everting catheter is disclosed. An IUD loading system for placement within an everting catheter is disclosed. The everting catheter with an IUD can simplify the process of IUD placement within the uterine cavity.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus including a first tubular housing including a first exit port and a second tubular housing including a second exit port. The apparatus also includes a third tubular housing coupled to at least one of the first tubular housing and the second tubular housing such that each of the first tubular housing, the second tubular housing, and the third tubular housing are fixed with respect to one another. The apparatus also includes a first catheter including a first plurality of outlets and is configured to be positioned at least partially within the first tubular housing. The apparatus also includes a second catheter including a second plurality of outlets and is configured to be positioned at least partially within of the second tubular housing. The apparatus also includes a pressure transducer line positioned in the third tubular housing and a pressure transducer coupled to the pressure transducer line.

A conduit includes a first end configured to be fluidly coupled to a wound site, and a second end configured to be fluidly coupled to a canister. The conduit additionally includes a central lumen extending between the first end and the second end. The conduit further includes a male interlocking member on a first side of the conduit and a female interlocking member on a second side of the conduit. Both the first side and the second side extend along a length of the conduit between the first end and the second end. The female interlocking member is configured to receive the male interlocking member.

A catheter includes a first tubular portion provided with a first opening communicating with an interior of the first tubular portion; a second tubular portion passing through the first tubular portion, the second tubular portion having an extension extending from a leading end of the first tubular portion and provided with a second opening communicating with an interior of the second tubular portion; and a temperature sensor configured to measure temperature of a measuring unit placed in the extension of the second tubular portion, wherein the catheter is configured to collect fluid discharged from one of the first opening and the second opening from another one of the first opening and the second opening.

A method may include positioning a first device within an internal carotid artery of a subject and impeding antegrade blood flow in the internal carotid artery. Additionally, the method may include delivering a pharmaceutical agent through an external carotid artery for passage into an ophthalmic artery of the subject.

A fluid delivery catheter configured to allow optimal fluid distribution through each electrode by varying the diameter of a catheter lumen is disclosed. Uniform or different fluid flow rates through longitudinally spaced apart elution holes may be achieved. Exemplary fluids for use with the catheter include a cooling fluid, a therapeutic fluid, and a medication.

Devices for loading intravascular treatment devices into a sheath and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. A sheathing tool may include, for example, a first channel extending to a first opening, the first channel configured to receive a treatment device in a constrained state therethrough. The treatment device may include an elongated member and a first element and a second element at a distal region of the elongated member. The second channel may extend to a second opening, the second opening surrounded by a sidewall and configured to receive the treatment device in the constrained state therethrough, wherein the second opening is spaced apart from the first opening by a gap, and wherein a length of the gap is great enough to allow the first element to self-expand over the sidewall while the second element generally maintains its diameter in the constrained state while crossing the gap.

A deployable tube apparatus may include a spool and a flexible sheet coiled about the spool in a laterally unfurled condition. The flexible sheet may have a first lateral margin and a second lateral margin, and may be deployable from the laterally unfurled condition with the first and the second lateral margins spaced from each other to a deployed tubular condition where the first and the second lateral margins are coupled to each other to form an enclosed lumen. The deployable tube apparatus may provide lateral support to an elongated flexible instrument, such as a catheter. Methods of creating and using the deployable tube apparatus are described.

An endovascular catheter has an elongate catheter body having a distal portion, a proximal portion, a transition portion and a central lumen extending longitudinally through the catheter body, with the distal portion having a larger central lumen than the proximal portion. A guidewire tube extends through a hole in the transition portion from the proximal end of the distal portion through the central lumen of the distal portion to the distal end of the distal portion.
