| 20080208170 | Devices for Connecting Catheter Assembly to Collection Receptacle - A device for connecting a catheter assembly to a collection receptacle is disclosed. The device is situated at a distal portion of the catheter assembly and the connection made may be either temporary or permanent using snap-fit, pressure-fit or other similar mechanism. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20100030197 | Devices for Handling Catheter Assembly - A gripping device for a catheter assembly is disclosed providing enhanced gripping power for the operator of the catheter assembly. The gripping device is situated at the proximal portion of the catheter assembly and the proximal terminus of an external catheter sheath is attached near or to the body of the gripping device. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100036366 | Devices for Connecting Catheter Assembly to Collection Receptacle - A device for connecting a catheter assembly to a collection receptacle is disclosed. The device is situated at a distal portion of the catheter assembly and the connection made may be either temporary or permanent. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100145315 | Indwelling Urinary Catheterization Assembly - An indwelling urinary catheter assembly is disclosed having an indwelling catheter and a sheath enclosing an insertable portion of the indwelling catheter. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100312227 | Devices and Methods for Catheter Advancement - Catheter advancing devices, systems and methods for advancing a catheter into the urethra of a user are disclosed. The catheter advancement device includes a body portion that couples to a guide portion of the catheter, the guide portion being movably coupled to the proximal end of a catheter. The catheter advancement device further includes a pair of flexible handles extending outwards from the body portion, and a gripping portion extending inwards from each of the flexible handles. A surface of the gripping portion comes in contact with the catheter when the flexible handles are engaged, and the surface of the gripping portion in contact with the catheter applies pressure to the catheter when the handles are engaged to advance the catheter through the guide portion. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110184386 | Catheter Assembly Having Protective Sheath - Devices and methods are disclosed for a catheterization process, particularly useful for self-performed catheterizations. A catheter is enclosed in a sheath made from a gas-permeable material. This sheath maximizes gas permeability to prevent air build-up at the distal end of the sheath, resulting in easy self-catheterization for even those with limited manual dexterity. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110213344 | Devices for Handling Catheter Assembly - A gripping device for a catheter assembly is disclosed providing enhanced gripping power for the operator of the catheter assembly. The gripping device is situated at the proximal portion of the catheter assembly and the proximal terminus of an external catheter sheath is attached near or to the body of the gripping device. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20110213345 | Devices and Methods for Securing Catheter Assemblies - A connecting device for a catheter assembly is disclosed allowing a user to connect a catheter assembly to an adhesive pad which is then capable of anchoring the catheter assembly to a patient's leg. The connecting device may have an introducer body with an extension body and an attachment mechanism. The connecting device can be rotated along with or within a collar in a circular manner in order to facilitate the making of the connection with the adhesive pad. Additionally, the connecting device may contain an enlarged portion to enhance operability. | 09-01-2011 |
