Systems and methods for delivering multiple embolization coils to a location within the body of a patient are disclosed. In one embodiment, a coil delivery system has coil deployment members coupled to embolization coils and is arranged for independent movement of the embolization coils. In some exemplary embodiments, the disclosure provides coil delivery systems in which the embolization coils are positioned within different lumens and/or on different straightening members. Methods and other embodiments are disclosed.

Systems and methods for delivering multiple embolization coils

A multilumen catheter with an inflow or an outflow lumen having at least two tube extensions extending from the distal end of the catheter that open into the inflow or outflow lumen. The catheter is useful in the extracorporeal treatment of blood, such as hemodialysis, hemofiltration or apheresis. A device to selectively test each of the two tube extensions for occlusion.

Multi-split-tipped catheter

A variable length balloon catheter assembly and methods for inflating a variable length balloon to a predetermined length. The variable length balloon catheter has a balloon at a distal end and a plurality of stricture mechanisms securing the balloon to the catheter. The stricture mechanisms are provided at known intervals and have a known rupture pressure. The balloon is inflated and a known number of stricture mechanisms are ruptured providing for a variable balloon length based on the number of stricture mechanisms ruptured.

Variable length balloon

Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for providing a direct visual indication of the relative inflationary condition of the balloon on a balloon catheter after insertion into the patient. In certain exemplary embodiments, a gastrostomy tube catheter is disclosed having a fluid feeding lumen and a balloon inflation lumen, a balloon communicating with the balloon inflation lumen, and an indicator strip having one end fixedly attached to the balloon and a free end movable along the length of the tube in accordance with the relative inflation and deflation of the balloon. The presence of the free end of the strip along an exposed portion of the gastrostomy tube serves as a direct visual indicator of a deflated condition of the balloon.
