Abstract:
Endoscope assemblies and methods for making and using the same. An example endoscope assembly may include an endoscope having a channel formed therein and a port that provides access to the channel, a cap disposed on the port, and an attachment assembly coupled to the cap. The attachment assembly may include a base and one or more arms extending from the base. A locking member may be coupled to at least one of the one or more arms.

Abstract:
A device, such as a catheter, for intraluminally delivering a distensible stent includes a first elongate tubular member having a proximal end and a distal end; a band circumferentially disposed over at least a circumferential portion of the first tubular member at the proximal end, the band having at least one projection for releasably engaging a portion of a radially distensible stent; and a second elongate tubular member slidably disposed over the first tubular member and the band. Desirably, the at least one projection is a low-profile, lobate-projection. shaped projection. The band may include two opposed projections, where the two opposed projections may be circumferentially disposed at about 180 from one and the other. Desirably, the band includes a metal, for example, stainless steel.

International Classification:
A61B 1/00 A61B 1/005
Abstract:
A delivery device may be configured to deliver an agent to a target tissue through a channel of a medical device, the delivery device may include a body including (a) a coupling region configured to removably attach to a handle of the medical device, and (b) a coupler including an exit port for aligning with a port of the channel, wherein the coupler is configured to mate with the port of the channel; a source of an agent; and a source of pressurized fluid. The body, the source of agent, and the source of pressurized fluid may be arranged to deliver agent and pressurized fluid to the exit port for delivery through the channel.

Tracheal stents may include a plurality of wave form structures each extending radially about the support structure, a plurality of axial loop members extending axially between adjacent wave form structures and a polymeric covering disposed thereover. Tracheal stents may include an expandable metal structure and a plurality of spacer fins extending above an outer surface of the expandable metal structure. The plurality of spacer fins may be formed of a material different than that of the expandable metal structure.

Abstract:
A medical device may include a shaft, and a first tool extending from a distal end of the shaft. The medical device also may include a control assembly coupled to the shaft. The control assembly may include a console, a first grip extending proximally from the console, and a second grip extending proximally from the console. The control assembly also may include a first deflection actuator configured to deflect the first tool about a longitudinal axis of the first tool, a first rotation actuator configured to rotate the first tool about the longitudinal axis of the first tool, and a first longitudinal actuator configured to move the first tool along the longitudinal axis of the first tool.

A tubular stent includes a stent body having a distal end and a proximal end, a covering surrounding at least a portion of the stent body and an adjustable annular ring secured to the stent body. The adjustable annular ring is configured to permit radial expansion of the adjustable annular ring while resisting radial compression of the adjustable annular ring.

Brother Jason Weiner, executive chef at Almond restaurant in the Flatiron District, on Saturday vehemently denied reports that he reached out to his siblings sexting pal to see if she planned to harm the candidate.
For the record, he also loved the eventual first-prize winner, the latke made by Almond chef Jason Weiner dubbed "Grandma Weiner's Potato Latkes." It was created with house-smoked bluefish, goat yogurt and dill. Tragically, I never got to taste it, since that station was on the main floor and closed
