Boston Scientitfic Corporation - Natick MA
International Classification:
A61M 2700
A61M 100
A61F 236
US Classification:
604544, 604317, 623 2364, 623 237
Abstract:
A ureteral stent for assisting movement of urine along a patient's ureter and into the patient's bladder. The stent includes an elongated tubular segment extending toward the bladder from a kidney end region for placement in the renal cavity to a bladder end region. A central lumen connects at least one opening at the first end region to at least one opening in the bladder end region. Thin flexible tail(s) are attached to the bladder end region of the tubular segment at a point outside the bladder so as to receive urine from the opening in the bladder end region of the tubular segment and to transport urine from there across the ureter/bladder junction and into the bladder. The tails include an elongated external urine-transport surface sized and configured to transport urine along the ureter. The urine transporting surface(s) are sized and configured to extend along at least part of the ureter, across the ureter/bladder junction, and from there into the bladder.

Deployment System For Surgical Suture

View page
US Patent:
20090259233, Oct 15, 2009
Filed:
Mar 31, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/415288
Inventors:
Michael Bogart - Milford CT, US
Gregg Krehel - Newtown CT, US
Christopher Fishbein - Wolcott CT, US
Russell Pribanic - New Milford CT, US
David Kirsch - Madison CT, US
Timothy D. Kosa - Hamden CT, US
Nicholas Maiorino - Branford CT, US
Mark S. Buchter - Ansonia CT, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/04
US Classification:
606144
Abstract:
A suture deployment system is disclosed including a surgical needle having a flexible suture fixedly attached thereto and a target suture releasably secured to the flexible suture. A collar is positioned between the flexible suture and the target suture and is fixedly secured to the flexible suture. The target suture is releasably secured to the collar is such that the target suture may detach from the collar once a surgical procedure has been completed. The surgical needle is a double pointed surgical needle specifically configured to be manipulated by a surgical suturing apparatus.

Ultrasound Imaging Catheter With A Cutting Element

View page
US Patent:
59679840, Oct 19, 1999
Filed:
Nov 27, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/757848
Inventors:
Michael S. H. Chu - Brookline MA
Yem Chin - Burlington MA
Demetrius H. Bagley - Philadelphia PA
William H. Stahley - Andover MA
David K. Young - Boston MA
Christopher G. Fishbein - Norfolk MA
George G. Brusard - Cambridge MA
Assignee:
Boston Scientific Corporation - Natick MA
International Classification:
A61B 812
US Classification:
600439
Abstract:
The invention features a catheter having a catheter body of extended length for insertion within a body of a living being. The catheter also includes an ultrasound imaging device disposed within a distal portion of the catheter body. The ultrasound imaging device generates electrical signals used by an ultrasound imaging system to display a real-time image of tissue surrounding the distal portion of the catheter. The catheter further includes a cutting element, e. g. , an electrode wire or a laser fiber, having a proximal portion disposed within the catheter body. The catheter also includes a mechanism connected to the catheter body that causes the distal portion of the cutting element to extend from the catheter body. The distal portion of the cutting element generates energy in tissue with which it is brought in proximity to form a cut in the tissue. The ultrasound imaging device is positioned relative to the cutting element such that the real-time image produced by the ultrasound imaging system can include the cutting element in relation to the tissue.
