Apparatus and methods are disclosed for occluding an anatomical structure including an occlusion apparatus having first and second beams and at least one connector for connecting the respective ends of the beams together. The occlusion apparatus may be adapted for use in a deployment device having a pair of jaws and optionally having a respective pair of shuttle bodies for releasably connecting an occlusion apparatus to the jaws while in an open position and for releasing the occlusion device from the jaws while in a closed position. A system for occluding an anatomical structure is also disclosed that includes an occlusion apparatus and a deployment device for holding the occlusion apparatus in an open position for locating the occlusion device adjacent the anatomical structure to be occluded and then moving the occlusion apparatus to a closed position and locking the occlusion apparatus in the closed position.

Apparatus and methods for occluding an anatomical structure

Protective locking systems for source vials which helps prevent mishandling of liquid medication to be removed from source vials and used in an injection device, such as a wearable injection device or a syringe. The protective locking systems include at least a key, a locking cap and a slide guard, each of which includes an opening sized at least large enough to receive a needle therethrough.

Protective locking systems for use with vials

In at least one embodiment, a medical device can comprise an elongate outer sheath that extends along a sheath longitudinal axis and defines a central lumen extending therethrough, the elongate outer sheath can comprise a proximal sheath portion and a distal sheath portion. A first guidewire can comprise a first guidewire end and a second guidewire end, the first guidewire can extend from the first and second guidewire ends through the central lumen and can form a distal looped portion. An occlusion device can be disposed at a distal end of an elongate flexible shaft. The elongate flexible shaft can extend from the proximal sheath portion through the central lumen. The occlusion device can include a guide lumen through which the first guide wire passes.

Medical devices

Provided herein are systems and methods for monitoring one or more health or physiological parameters in a subject. The systems and methods may comprise a patch coupled to an injector. Data may be transmitted to a mobile device or remote server, where the data may be processed. Processed data may be used to inform a subject on a health or physiological condition.

Medical fluid injection apparatus and method with detachable patch and monitoring

Drug delivery system, injection device, transfer apparatus, vial holder and method of administering and transferring are disclosed which provide for passive warming of chilled injectable transferred through the transfer apparatus and into the injection device. The injection device may include a skin-facing surface including a skin boundary displacement extension or structure around a needle injection site to create a high pressure zone in the tissue. Radio frequency tracking and monitoring features for tracking patient compliance also may be provided.

Medical fluid transfer and injection apparatus and method

Drug delivery system, injection device, transfer apparatus, vial holder and method of administering and transferring are disclosed. The system may include transfer apparatus and an injection device. The transfer apparatus may have receiving stations for a drug source, such as a vial or vial holder, and for an injection device, and fluid flow pathways for transferring drugs from the source into the injection device. The injection device may include an expandable elastic bladder and an injection cannula that is movable between a plurality of positions.

Vial transfer and injection apparatus and method

A medical liquid vial is disclosed with a resilient inner bladder and a pre-stress member located with the bladder. Injector assemblies are also disclosed for injecting the vial contents into a patient by advancing the vial through a series of stages or positions. Methods of filling and use are also disclosed.

Medical vial and injector assemblies and methods of use

Apparatus and method are described employing pressurized gas to transfer, mix and/or reconstitute medicament contained in a vial and flowing it into an injection device. Pressurized gas may be provided by prefilled cartridge.

Pressurized gas powered medicament transfer and re-suspension apparatus and method

A fluid injection needle has a relatively precision fluid flow path. The needle comprises a needle shaft and a sizing shaft axially extending within the needle shaft lumen a selected distance distal of a fluid entry port into the lumen. The sizing shaft has a cross-sectional size smaller than the lumen to define a fluid flow path between the sizing shaft and the needle shaft. An injection device employing such an injection needle and a method of making such a needle are also disclosed.

Injection needle, injection apparatus employing same and method of making

Apparatus for tissue lumen (such as urethra) remodeling includes an elongated shaft and at least one expandable structure on a distal end of the shaft. At least one desiccator or energy emitter is carried by the structure and operable to define a support structure in lumen tissue that resists lumen closure. Apparatus is also disclosed for identifying tissue or developing a profile of tissue along the lumen based at least in part on an electrical characteristic of the tissue. Methods of remodeling and profiling are also disclosed.
