An aortic closure device for trans-caval procedures having a deployment assembly having a housing, a release tube, and a delivery tube disposed within the release tube, a tamper disposed within the delivery tube, a sealing element, a suture assembly, and an actuator.

Aortic closure system and related methods

A vascular closure device includes a release component, a delivery component, a sealing device and at least one actuator. The release component is elongate along a longitudinal direction, and defines a distal end and a proximal end. The delivery component extends along the release component such that at least the release component is movable relative to the delivery component. The delivery component includes a delivery tube body and defines a delivery tube channel. The sealing device has a toggle that is at least partially disposed within the release tube, a suture that is attached to the toggle and extends through the delivery tube channel, and a plug that is attached to the suture proximal to the toggle. The actuator is coupled to the release component and is in communication with the suture such that actuation of the actuator causes (i) the release component to move the proximal direction relative to the delivery component so as to release the toggle from the release component, and (ii) the suture to be pulled in a proximal direction to thereby place the filament in tension and urge the toggle against a distal end of the delivery component such that the toggle is oriented in a sealing position.

Vascular closure device

Disclosed are puncture sealing systems and methods of locating a puncture site within a vessel. The systems can include puncture locating dilators and access sheaths that are configured to locate the puncture site within a vessel so that the position of the puncture site relative to a distal end of the access sheath is known during a puncture sealing procedure.

Vascular locating systems and methods of use

A vascular closure device configured to seal a puncture site in the vessel wall in a more efficient manner is disclosed. The vascular closure device includes a guide member that extends through a portion of the sealing device and that is removable from the portion the sealing device.

Disclosed are puncture sealing systems and methods of locating a puncture site within a vessel. The systems can include elongated dilators and access sheaths that are configured to locate the puncture site within a vessel so that the position of the puncture site relative to a distal end of the access sheath is known during a puncture sealing procedure.

Puncture locating system with blood pulsation indicator

A vascular closure device includes a deployment assembly, a sealing unit carried by the deployment assembly, and a tamper carried by the deployment assembly and that is disposed along a suture with respect to the sealing unit. The vascular closure device includes a locking assembly coupled to the tamper so as to selectively inhibit advancement of the tamper along the suture in the distal direction toward the sealing unit. The locking assembly is adapted to transition from A) a locked configuration where the tamper is inhibited from sliding along the suture, into B) an unlocked configuration where the tamper is slidable along the suture in the distal direction and into contact with the sealing unit.

A storage latch mechanism () is disclosed for a foldable stroller. The stroller has a frame assembly with a chassis () and a handle (). The frame assembly is reconfigurable between an in-use configuration and a folded configuration and the handle () is movable between a normal use position and a stowed position relative to the chassis. The storage latch mechanism () has first and second storage latch parts carried on the frame assembly and which are latched to one another with the frame assembly in the folded configuration and which are unlatched from one another in the in-use configuration. Movement of the handle () to the stowed position frees the storage latch mechanism () to latch and movement of the handle from the stowed position to the normal use position unlatches the storage latch mechanism.

A stroller includes a frame, a pivot joint assembly mounted on the frame, and a handle coupled to the frame at the pivot joint assembly. The handle rotates about a pivot axis defined by the pivot joint assembly between first and second positions relative to the frame. A latch assembly includes a projection and is movable between a latched state in which the latch assembly secures the handle in either the first position or the second position and a released state in which the handle is released for movement between the first and second positions. A latch guide defines a path along which the projection rides during the movement between the first and second positions such that the projection remains in the released state during the movement between the first and second positions
