Embodiments of an actuating device for actuating a needle cartridge and puncturing an epidermis with controlled depth. The actuating device includes a motor housed in a motor housing, an actuating rod driven by the motor and configured to actuate in a reciprocating motion, and an adjustment mechanism. The actuating rod is housed in a rod housing, the rod housing forming a device aperture configured to receive a needle cartridge and to attach to the needle cartridge. The adjustment mechanism interfaces with the rod housing and is configured to adjust a position of the rod housing relative to the motor housing while not rotating the rod housing relative to the motor housing.

System for puncturing the epidermis with controlled fluid delivery

A manually articulated stylet assembly for placing an endotracheal tube. The stylet assembly has a steering shaft that carries a flexible distal tip at one end and is attached to a handle at the other end. The distal tip is manipulated via sheathed cables controlled by a remote actuator in the handle. A biasing member inside the remote actuator maintains continuous tension on the cables to improve control. A video camera is carried in a recessed lens pocket in the steering shaft but spaced from the distal tip. The camera FOV captures movement of the distal tip with foreshortened perspective. A collar seat in the handle receives the collar connector of a standard endotracheal tube, providing quick disconnect when removing the stylet assembly upon placement.

Needle cartridge clip

Embodiments of an apparatus include a needle cartridge configured to attach to and interface with an actuating device. The needle cartridge includes a housing, a needle group assembly, and a fluid port. The housing forms a cavity and includes a first aperture and a second aperture opposite the first aperture. The needle group assembly includes a needle and a needle holder. The needle group assembly is configured to move in a reciprocating motion relative to the housing along an axis from the first aperture to the second aperture. During the reciprocating motion, the needle fully retracts into the cavity through the first aperture. The fluid port is integrated with the housing and includes a hollow projection forming a conduit and extending away from the housing. The fluid port includes a third aperture, wherein the fluid port is configured to interface with a fluid delivery system.

Described are methods and systems for reshaping a cartilage structure. Such methods comprise treating the cartilage structure with electromagnetic energy and fitting a device to the cartilage structure to retain it in the desired place, form, and/or orientation. Systems comprise an emitter of electromagnetic energy and a device to the cartilage structure to retain it in the desired place, form, and/or orientation.

Methods for reshaping cartilage structures

Retaining devices for use with ears of a subject may include a first portion configured to be secured to a subject's head and a second portion configured to position the helix of the subject's ear. Methods of reshaping tissue of a subject's ear may include performing a laser treatment on the tissue of the subject's ear and installing a retaining device on the subject's ear.

A fluid conduit coupling assembly has a depressible latch mechanism that secures a first fluid conduit to a second fluid conduit via a first coupler and a second coupler. The first coupler connects to the first fluid conduit and the second coupler connects to the second fluid conduit. The depressible latch mechanism is formed by a pair of cantilevered buttons disposed in symmetrically opposed positions on one of the couplers. The cantilevered buttons have engagement lips that extend distally with catches that extend radially outward to engage a ridge formed on an interior wall of the opposing coupler. Fluid ports within the couplers interface when the couplers connect to provide fluid flow between the first and second conduits. Valves may be disposed in each of the couplers to arrest fluid flow when the couplers are detached and automatically open to allow fluid to flow when the couplers are connected.

A device that projects light rays and beams onto the eye in a predetermined pattern or arrangement of patterns, wherein the light rays or beams scatter in the eye tissues and which images of scatter are captured by video scanning cameras. The images are transferred into digital information for processing, storage, display or retrieval by a processing device which also determines the location, and position of the scattered light in space and prepares a mathematical representation of the light representing the shape, thickness, and relationship of the tissues of the eye.

The present invention is a fluid conduit coupling assembly for coupling a first fluid conduit to a second fluid conduit. The fluid conduit coupling assembly comprises a first coupler and a second coupler. The first coupler is for connecting to the first fluid conduit and comprises a first housing and a first valve. The first valve comprises a first lever arm. The second coupler is for connecting to the second fluid conduit and comprises a second housing and a second valve. The second valve comprises a second lever arm. When a force is applied to couple together the couplers, at least a portion of said force is communicated to each lever arm, thereby causing each valve to pivot from a closed position to an open position. The first valve and first lever arm are contained within the first housing, and the second valve and second lever arm are contained within the second housing.
