| 20110264162 | Passive electrical connector - An electrical connector is disclosed that includes an annular housing having a central aperture for receiving a connector pin and an annular contact spring disposed concentrically within the annular housing and including a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart spring arms, each spring arm having a radially inwardly extending contact pad for resiliently contacting a connector pin inserted into the central aperture of the housing. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20100312190 | LOW INSERTION FORCE HEMOSTASIS VALVE FOR VASCULAR INTRODUCER - A hemostasis valve for a vascular introducer includes a valve body having a seal region with opposed first and second end surfaces and a central axis extending through the seal region perpendicular to the first and second end surfaces. The first end surface of the seal region has a first grouping of cut lines formed on the first end surface and extending radially outward from the central axis. The second end surface of the seal region has a second grouping of cut lines formed on the second end surface and extending radially outward from the central axis. The first circumferential grouping of intersecting cut lines is axially aligned with and angularly offset from the second circumferential grouping of cut lines. A pair of planar slits extend angularly away from each cut line in the first end surface, through the valve body, to a respective pair of oppositely adjacent cut lines in the second end surface. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20100305509 | VASCULAR INTRODUCER SHEATH WITH MULTIPLE PEEL LINES - A peelable vascular introducer including an elongated tubular sheath having opposed proximal and distal ends and at least three circumferentially spaced peel lines extending from the proximal end to the distal end. The peelable vascular introducer also includes spreadable handles associated with the proximal end of the sheath configured to split the sheath along the peel lines. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100137956 | Lead adaptor having low resistance conductors and/or encapsulated housing - An implantable lead adaptor is disclosed that includes an encapsulated thermoplastic housing defining a proximal end portion and a distal end portion. The proximal end portion has a first receptacle configured to receive a first type of connector assembly associated with a first implantable cardiac lead, and a second receptacle configured to receive a second type of connector assembly associated with a second implantable cardiac lead. An elongated flexible lead portion extends from the distal end portion of the adaptor housing. A connector assembly is operatively associated with a distal end section of the flexible lead portion of the adaptor for connection to an implantable pulse-generating device, such as, for example, an implantable pacemaker or defibrillator. Low resistance conductor wires electrically connect the connector assembly associated with the distal end section of the lead portion with the first and second receptacles of the adaptor housing. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20090030374 | Peel-away introducer sheath having pitched peel lines and method of making same - A percutaneous peel-away vascular introducer that includes an elongated tubular sheath having opposed proximal and distal ends, and a pair of diametrically opposed peel lines that extend along the length of the sheath from the proximal end thereof to the distal end thereof, wherein the diametrically opposed peel lines have an axially extending pitch. The introducer further includes a pair of spreadable handles associated with the proximal end of the sheath for splitting the sheath along the peel lines. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20080311772 | Electrical connector and devices using the same - The subject disclosure is directed to female connectors which can be employed in a quick connect/disconnect system used in medical devices to provide a non-permanent electrical and mechanical engagement with a male connector. The female connectors include, inter alia, a connector body that has an outer periphery and an aperture extending therethrough. The connector body has a flexible, non-conductive portion and a conductive portion which is at least partially exposed in the aperture and on the outer periphery of the connector body. The connector body is constructed such that when a male connector is inserted into the aperture of the connector body, the flexible, non-conductive part and the conductive part of the connecter body cooperate to allow for expansion of the aperture, creating contact pressure between the conductive part of the connector body and the male connector. | 12-18-2008 |
