A medical device for cutting a suture during a minimally invasive procedure includes an elongate shaft, a handle housing disposed at the proximal end of the elongate shaft, and a cutting blade disposed proximate the distal end of the elongate shaft. A proximal portion of the handle housing includes an actuation mechanism including a lever arm having a first portion disposed outside of the handle housing and extending distally from the proximal portion of the handle housing. Translation of the first portion of the lever arm relative to the handle housing axially translates the cutting blade within the elongate shaft. A medical device system may include a stand configured to support at least one medical device and a medical device securable to the stand.

A medical system includes a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, a balloon attached to the distal end of the shaft, the balloon movable between an expanded state and a deflated state where a maximum diameter of the balloon is greater in the expanded state than in the deflated state, and an electrode is attached to the shaft where a portion of the balloon includes a plurality of apertures fluidly connecting an interior of the balloon to an exterior of the balloon.
