Thrombus aspiration with different intensity levels

Vascular treatment devices and methods include a woven structure including a plurality of bulbs that may be self-expanding, a hypotube, for example including interspersed patterns of longitudinally spaced rows of kerfs, and a bonding zone between the woven structure and the hypotube. The woven structure may include patterns of radiopaque filaments measurable under x-ray. Structures may be heat treated to include various shapes at different temperatures. The woven structure may be deployable to implant in a vessel. A catheter may include a hypotube including interspersed patterns of longitudinally spaced rows of kerfs and optionally a balloon. Laser cutting systems may include fluid flow systems.

Systems and Methods for Buffered Aerosol Drug Delivery
20190328040 · 2019-10-31 ·

A method for delivering a drug to a user including an electronic cigarette wherein the electronic cigarette itself includes a liquid formulation. The liquid formulation can include at least one drug and at least one biologically acceptable carrier. The at least one drug can be formed with an acid or alcohol and has a first vapor pressure at a first temperature, and is heated by a heating element within the electronic cigarette resulting in the generation of an aerosol suitable for inhaling by the user. Often, the drug can include nicotine, but may also be configured to include cannabinol or can be associated with nicotine replacement therapies, or other medication-assisted therapies. The drugs may also have a salt or co-salt added in order to increase the effectiveness of drug delivery while lowering the need for a higher powered heating element.

Injector for injecting pellets
10405955 · 2019-09-10 · ·

An injector for injecting pellets includes a main body, a delivery opening which is formed on the main body and to which a hollow-bore needle can be connected and a magazine guide formed in the main body for a magazine which, for accommodating the pellets, comprises several barrels. Each barrel includes a hollow cylindrical compartment with an open front end and an open rear end. The magazine guide brings the magazine, barrel by barrel, into an injection position, in which a plunger of the injector can be introduced into the barrel via the rear end of the barrel positioned in the injection position and moved in the direction of the delivery opening in order to deliver the pellet provided in the barrel via the delivery opening. A drawer is formed in the main body for accommodating a replacement hollow-bore needle.

Removable actuating cap for use with an auto-injector assembly

A removable cap for use with an auto-injector device, whereupon removal of the cap triggers an actuating assembly that can cause an automatic mixing of medicament components in an auto-injector device and/or place the auto-injector in a state to be used.

Aspiration devices and methods

An aspiration system includes a pump and a control system in communication with the pump. The control system includes a microcontroller, an antenna configured to receive a signal, and a pump control board in communication with the microcontroller. The antenna is in communication with the microcontroller. Upon receiving the signal, the pump control board operates the pump to create negative pressure according to the signal.

Septum for Access Port

A medical device comprising an implantable subcutaneous access port having a septum penetrable by a needle; the septum having a cavity located between an outer wall and an inner wall, the cavity containing a flowable media comprising a plurality of displaceable particles arranged to move in response to the needle being inserted through the outer wall and into the cavity and reposition around the needle.

Bone delivery apparatus and methods

Apparatus for delivery of bone includes a syringe body and a plunger. The syringe body includes a tip at a bottom thereof, a funnel-shaped top at the top thereof, and a tubular section having a generally cylindrical interior wall defining a passageway extending from the funnel-shaped top to the tip. The plunger includes an elongate piston, a press head, and a handle. The piston extends between the press head at a lower end of the plunger, and the handle at an upper end of the plunger. The plunger is removably received within the passageway, with an extent of the plunger extending out of the funnel-shaped top away from the syringe body. The syringe body may be loaded with one or more bone pellets or cartridges containing bone.
