In some examples, a thrombus removal device includes a stationary element and a movable element configured to macerate a thrombus into smaller pieces as the thrombus moves into a basket defined by an expandable element. The stationary element defines a plurality of arms configured to segment the thrombus into smaller pieces. The movable element is configured to move relative to the stationary element, e.g., to rotate, plunge, vibrate, and/or oscillate, in order to macerate the thrombus.

Thrombus removal device

In some examples, a catheter assembly includes a delivery catheter defining a delivery catheter lumen, a delivery catheter handle connected to the delivery catheter, a retrieval catheter defining a retrieval catheter lumen configured to receive the delivery catheter, and a retrieval catheter handle connected to the retrieval catheter. A proximal end of the retrieval catheter handle is configured to removably couple to a distal end of the delivery catheter handle.

A stent delivery system includes a handle and an elongate catheter extending from the handle. The elongate catheter includes an inner member, an outer member mounted about the inner member and adapted for longitudinal movement relative to the inner member from an extended position to a retracted position and a stent mounted about the inner member. The stent delivery system also includes a thumbwheel mounted to the handle. The thumbwheel is adapted for rotational movement to cause corresponding movement of the outer member from the extended position to the retracted position. In some examples, the stent delivery system may include a lock member adapted to engage at least one of the outer member and the thumbwheel to prevent movement thereof when the lock member is secured relative to the handle.

Stent delivery system

A stent delivery system includes a handle and an elongate catheter extending from the handle, and defining a leading end and a trailing end, and having a longitudinal axis. The elongate catheter includes an inner member, an outer member mounted about the inner member and adapted for longitudinal movement relative to the inner member from an extended position to a retracted position and a stent mounted about the inner member. The stent delivery system also includes a thumbwheel mounted to the handle and operatively connected to the outer member, and a lock member releasably mountable to the handle. The thumbwheel is adapted for rotational movement to cause corresponding movement of the outer member from the extended position to the retracted position. The lock member is adapted to engage at least one of the outer member and the thumbwheel to prevent movement thereof when the lock member is secured relative to the handle, and is adapted to release the at least one of the outer member and the thumbwheel when the lock member is released relative to the handle. The lock member may be adapted to engage each of the outer member and the thumbwheel to prevent respective movement thereof when the lock member is secured relative to the handle and adapted to release each of the outer member and the thumbwheel when the lock member is released relative to the handle.

This invention relates to an electrotransport device, which incorporates a conductive element within the reservoir housing of the device, which permits electrical communication from within the housing to outside of the housing without the use of opening, which require various methods of sealing the openings against leaks and moisture.
