An intravascular delivery device is disclosed comprising a delivery wire having a proximal and a distal end and an interior lumen extending there between and wherein said distal end comprises a connection interface adapted to matingly interlock with a proximal end portion of a medical implantable device, wherein said delivery device comprises a locking unit arranged to secure said connection interface in a locking position in which said medical implant is pivotably locked before a controlled release.

Implant, medical implant, and method for delivery of a medical implant

Disclosed is a cleaning wick for a channel of a medical instrument, particularly an endoscope. Said cleaning wick supports at least one, preferably several wiping elements () on the elongate, flexible wick () that can be inserted into the instrument channel. The wiping elements () are designed as flock coating that adheres to the wick () in a section of the length thereof. Unflocked zones () that are left between the wiping elements () absorb substances which are to be discharged from the instrument channel during the cleaning process. An unflocked final region () located at the longitudinal ends () of the wick () makes it easier to introduce the cleaning wick into the instrument channel.

Cleaning wick for a channel of a medical instrument

The invention relates to an electrosurgical instrument () for an endoscope or a catheter, which can be operated by means of a high-frequency current, contact electrosurgical treatment and non-contact plasma coagulation in an ionisable gas. A stationary electrode () is arranged on the distal end of a guiding tube () that can be introduced into the instrument channel () of an endoscope catheter (), and when the electrosurgical electrode for the contact treatment is in the retracted position in the guiding tube (), the stationary electrode is connected to the electrosurgical electrode () by means of a contact element ().The retracted position of the electrode () can, but not necessarily, be maintained by an abutment () of a handling device () and/or by a suitable arrangement and measurement of the contact element (). The retracted position of the electrode () does not need to be optically controlled.
