The present disclosure provides a bioresorbable foam closure device for trans-nasally closing an opening in a base of a skull. The closure device comprises a phase-separated polymer having a porosity of greater than 80%. The device includes a stem portion having a proximal end and a distal end, and a head portion at the distal end of the stem portion. The closure device is deformed from a free shape to a constricted shape, inserted through a nasal cavity and into the opening, and released to at least partially revert back to the free shape such that the stem portion fills the opening and the head portion abuts cranium and dura to secure the closure device in position and seal the opening.

The invention relates to deployable magnetic compression devices and systems and methods for the deployment of such magnetic compression devices. The magnetic compression devices are particularly useful for creating anastomoses, e.g., in the gastrointestinal tract. The devices are especially useful for minimally-invasive delivery, e.g., using endoscopic techniques. The systems, devices, and methods can be used to treat a variety of gastrointestinal and metabolic diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, and cancer.

The medical device warmer is adapted for use with endoscopes. Specifically, the medical device warmer is a mechanical apparatus that is adapted to store and warm an endoscope during an endoscopic procedure. The medical device warmer is provisioned as a support kit. The support kit contains the medical device warmer as well as associated equipment and materials required for an endoscopic procedure. During an endoscopic procedure the support kit is clipped with a plurality of clips to the surgical draping used in the procedure to allow medical personnel ready access to the equipment. The medical device warmer comprises a warming cylinder, a cap and a support kit.
