The supporting outer tube is sleeved in a circumferential direction of the rotary inner tube, one end of the supporting outer tube is fixedly connected with the handle mechanism and the other end of the supporting outer tube is provided with a bent section, the bent section is provided with a continuous bent groove, and the bent groove is arranged spirally along the circumferential direction of the bent section.

Disclosed is an inserter (1100, 1300, 1400, 1500) for an intrauterine system (1102, 1336, 1402, 1502), comprising a handle body (1104, 1306, 1416, 1504), a measurement tube (1110, 1328, 1406, 1510), a plunger (1132, 1202, 1362, 1450, 1532), a flange (1122, 1404, 1522), a finger holder (1124, 1314, 1446, 1524), and a means (1126, 1526) for reversibly locking removal thread (1128, 1358, 1414) of the intrauterine system. A proximal end (1106, 1440, 1506) of the measurement tube is movably attached to a distal end (1108, 1330, 1454, 1508) of the handle body, and the measurement tube is arranged to remain outside a cervix channel during insertion. The plunger is movably arranged inside the handle body and the measurement tube. The present disclosure also provides a kit comprising the inserter and the intrauterine system.

Disclosed herein are inflatable balloon apparatuses for use in stopping massive blood flow from a uterine wall due trauma or disease. Also disclosed is a method for using the apparatuses.

An intrauterine balloon catheter for inhibiting formation of intrauterine adhesions in a mammalian uterus comprising balloon and a sheath, wherein the balloon is at least partially attached to the inner surface of the sheath and wherein the balloon and sheath, when the balloon is inflated, conform to the size and shape of the uterus and contact the wall of the uterus. The catheter further comprises a pressure control lock, clipping unit and one or more therapeutic agents which are therapeutically effective in inhibiting intrauterine adhesion formation.

A hysteroscopic fluid management system includes a saline source with an electrolyte concentration, at least one pressure mechanism for circulating saline to and from a targeted site and through a filter having filter characteristics back to the source, and a controller. The controller provides a saline inflow in a first flow path to the site and a saline outflow in a second flow path from the site through the filter and back to the source at a controlled flow rate. A diagnostic or therapeutic procedure is performed at the site in the presence of the saline. The filter characteristics and the controlled flow rate are selected to (1) cause substantially no change in the electrolyte concentration in the saline, (2) to prevent hemolysis of greater than 5% of filtered red blood cells exposed to the saline, and/or (3) to minimize effect on prothrombin time of plasma exposed to the filter.

The Cervical Dilator is an improved tool for dilating a woman’s cervix prior to gynecological surgeries. The Cervical Dilator comprises a solid dilator with a first diameter and a series of hollow dilators. The series of hollow dilators comprises a plurality of hollow dilators of increasing size. A first hollow dilator has a second diameter that may be 1 mm larger than the first diameter. A second hollow dilator has a third diameter that may be 1 mm larger than the second diameter. A third hollow dilator has a fourth diameter that may be 1 mm larger than the third diameter. Thereby, upon insertion of the next hollow dilator in the series, the dilation of the cervix is increases by 1 mm.

The present disclosure describes a system for the delivery of therapeutic substances to the cavities of a patient. The system can include a wearable micropump that is fluidically coupled with a handpiece. The handpiece can be inserted, for example, into the middle ear via a surgical tympanotomy approach. The system can enable a controlled injection of a therapeutic substance directly into the patient's cavity.

A system includes an endoscope configured for insertion into an internal body cavity and a fluid management system. The fluid management system includes a pump configured to pump fluid through the endoscope into the internal body cavity and a controller configured to determine a pressure within the internal body cavity based upon a current feedback signal received from the pump. A method includes supplying a drive signal to a pump to pump fluid into an internal body cavity, receiving a current feedback signal from the pump, and determining a pressure within the internal body cavity based on the current feedback signal.

A system includes an endoscope defining a proximal end, a distal end and an elongated shaft extending between the proximal end and the distal end of the endoscope. A fluid collecting sheath defines a proximal end and a distal end. The fluid collecting sheath is configured for insertion into a vaginal opening. The fluid collecting sheath includes fluid collecting apertures defined at the distal end of the fluid collecting sheath. A fluid line is in fluid communication with the fluid collecting apertures. A channel is formed in the fluid collecting sheath. The channel extends between the proximal end and the distal end of the fluid collecting sheath. The channel defines an opening therein. The channel of the fluid collecting sheath is configured to operably engage the elongated shaft of the endoscope by passing the elongated shaft of the endoscope through the opening of the channel.

A Catheter for the transfer of human embryos including an outer catheter characterized by an integrated element of transverse folds in the shape of an “accordion” at a specific distance from its tip. When being compact, the element of transverse folds is 1 cm long while the distance of its center from the tip of the catheter is 5.5 cm but can vary +/−1 cm. The element of transverse folds has the ability to bend, expand, compress and generally be configured in the desired shape and angle by the operating clinician in order to facilitate its passage through the cervical channel. The shape and angle are capable of being re-configured by the operating clinician if deemed necessary. The element of transverse folds is also capable of automatically adjusting in shape and angle during its passage through the cervix, following the anatomy of the cervical channel.
