20090247986 | Flapper Valve with Membrane Bypass for Power PICC - A bypass for power injection includes (a) a housing defining a lumen extending from a proximal end to a distal end coupled to a catheter; (b) a membrane valve mounted within the lumen, the membrane valve having an opening extending therethrough sized to tightly receive therethrough and seal around a power injection device; and (c) a flapper valve extending across the lumen distally of the membrane valve. The flapper valve includes a flap biased toward a closed position in which the lumen is sealed. The flap is rotatable away from the closed position when contacted by a power injection device to permit the device to extend therethrough. | 10-01-2009 |

20090149832 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR FLUID TRANSFER VIA SUBCUTANEOUS PORT - A device for providing access to an implantable fluid transfer port, comprises a needle extending to a distal end insertable into body to enter a reservoir of a port implanted therein and an actuation member extending through a lumen of the needle from an actuator which remains external to a living body accessible to a user thereof in combination with an obturator coupled to a distal end of the actuation member, an outer diameter of the obturator substantially matching an inner diameter of the lumen of the needle so that, when retracted into the lumen, the obturator seals a distal opening thereof and an anchoring mechanism coupled to the actuation member proximally of the obturator, the anchoring mechanism being moved to an expanded state in which an outer diameter of the anchoring mechanism exceeds an outer diameter of the needle when moved out of the lumen of the needle. | 06-11-2009 |
20100114084 | PERCUTANEOUS PRINGLE OCCLUSION METHOD AND DEVICE - Methods and devices for occluding a vessel during a percutaneous ablation procedure. An elongated access device having a lumen and a tissue piercing, open distal end in communication with the lumen is used to percutaneously access a vessel that supplied blood to the tissue to be treated. An elongated balloon deployment device is used to deliver a balloon into the interior of the vessel. The balloon is inflated, resulting in the occlusion of the vessel. The tissue to be treated is ablated. Because there is little or no blood to transfer the thermal energy away from the heated tissue, the ablation procedure is performed more efficiently. The balloon may be subsequently deflated allowing normal flow through the vessel to return. | 05-06-2010 |
20140024935 | ECHOGENIC OCCLUSIVE BALLOON AND DELIVERY SYSTEM - A vessel occlusion apparatus includes an elongate shaft having a fluid delivery lumen; and an expandable member carried on a distal an end portion of the shaft, the expandable member comprising a body defining an interior region, the interior region communication with the fluid delivery lumen, the body comprising a wall having one or more embedded fluid pockets therein, each of the one or more pockets containing a fluid capable of being imaged, e.g., having echogenic qualities for detection using ultrasound imaging. | 01-23-2014 |
