The present disclosure is drawn to an access device that includes a cannula with a joint lumen therethrough, and a hub coupled to a proximal end of the cannula. The hub includes at least two arms. The first arm may have a first lumen and a first hemostatic valve, the first lumen operably connected to the joint lumen, where the first lumen and the first hemostatic valve are configured for passage of a medical device, and the second arm may be coupled to the first arm and have a second lumen, the second lumen operable connected to the joint lumen, the second arm configured to be operably coupled to an external medical device, such as an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device.

Provided herein is a system including, in some embodiments, a streamlined port and a port tunneler. The port includes a septum and a stabilizing element. The septum is disposed over a cavity in a body of the port, and the septum is configured to accept a needle therethrough. The stabilizing element is configured to stabilize the port in vivo and maintain needle access to the septum. The port tunneler includes an adapter and a release mechanism. The adapter is in a distal end portion of the port tunneler, and the adapter is configured to securely hold the port while subcutaneously tunneling the port from an incision site to an implantation site for the port. The release mechanism is configured to release the port from the adapter at the implantation site for the port.

A hemostasis pressure device is disclosed. In one embodiment, the hemostasis pressure device includes a reusable component and a disposable cuff. The disposable cuff includes a pre-inflated pad configured to be placed at an access site on a patient. A knob secured to the reusable component is configured to control the pressure applied to the pre-inflated pad, providing incremental, fine-tuned control of pressure applied to the access site to achieve patent hemostasis.

A method and apparatus are aimed to improve arteriovenous fistula maturation rate by treating the fistula with a crosslink agent solution (fixative solution). The fixative solution will crosslink proteins and biomolecules, allowing formation of crosslinks that stabilize or stable tissue structure. The method and apparatus will address factors that contribute to arteriovenous fistula maturation failure by stopping the neointimal hyperplasia growth after vascular injury and stabilizing the venous wall to prevent the lumen from narrowing.

A barrier system is provided for use in reducing infections associated with a percutaneous medical device, such as a catheter, that is disposed within a percutaneous incision. Such a barrier system can include: a barrier device having a skin-contacting surface and a catheter-receiving surface; and an adhesive composition configured for adhering to skin, the barrier device, and/or the catheter so as to form a barrier at or adjacent to an incision in the skin where the catheter is percutaneously inserted through the skin. The barrier device can include a conduit configured to receive the catheter. Alternatively, the barrier device can include a groove in a base surface that is configured to receive the catheter. A system that includes a medical device, the barrier device, and adhesive can also be provided.

An infusion pump includes a core member and a bladder member which are substantially spheroidal at one end and cylindrical at the other end. The core member is inserted inside the bladder member and a ring member engages the cylindrical ends of the core and bladder member to sealingly secure the bladder to the core. A tubular hose is included and is coupled with an infusion port of the core member. When fluid is injected into the pump, it causes the bladder member to inflate substantially symmetrically and spherically around an axial axis of the core member. Upon deflating the bladder member, the fluid is ejected out of the pump at a constant flow rate.

An access closure device for closing an opening in tissue is provided. The access closure device may comprise a balloon delivery system and a sealant delivery system. The balloon delivery system may comprise a suture, a delivery shaft, an inflatable balloon, and a balloon segment releasably attached to the delivery shaft. The sealant delivery system may comprise a sealant delivery shaft, an ejection tube, and a snare wire configured to snare a suture of the delivery system.

A sheath for producing a fully sealed access to the interior of a vessel of an animal or human body comprises a base sheath having a tubular body defining a pass-through channel. The base sheath is adapted to be inserted into the vessel through a vessel aperture. The sheath further comprises an expansion device which is adapted to cooperate with the base sheath such that the outer diameter of the sheath increases in the region of the vessel aperture with the sheath in a stationary position in the vessel and upon actuation of the expansion device.

A positioning device is provided for delivering or guiding a surgical device into a lumen of a body vessel to a position adjacent target tissue. The device includes a housing, an elongate sleeve, and a source of pressurized fluid. The sleeve has a first end coupled to a delivery side of the housing, a second end positioned on a return side of the housing, and an inverted distal portion positioned between the first and second ends. One second end of the sleeve can be furled about a support member supported on the housing. A distal portion of the sleeve defines a cavity that communicates with a pressure chamber within the housing. When pressurized fluid is directed into the pressure chamber, the pressurized fluid flows into the cavity of the distal portion of the sleeve to advance the sleeve away from the housing.

In one embodiment, an expandable access sheath including a planar sheet of material that is configured to be rolled up around an inflatable balloon, the sheet comprising an inner surface, an outer surface, a leading edge, a trailing edge, a proximal edge, and a distal edge, the sheet further including at least one locking tab that extends from either the inner surface or the outer surface of the sheet, wherein the leading edge of the sheet is configured to interface with the locking tab to lock the access sheath in a predetermined configuration in which the access sheath forms an inner working channel having a predetermined cross-sectional dimension after the access sheath has been expanded by the inflatable balloon.
