Patent number: 11980709Abstract: A fat harvesting systems and related methods of harvesting and reinjecting fat that provides a medical professional with multiple technique options. Harvested fat can be subjected to a variety of pre-reinjection preparation steps within a single, self contained reservoir such that the potential for contaminating the harvested fat is avoided. The fat harvesting system can be completely self-contained kit requiring no additional external systems or alternatively, can utilize available surgical suite systems, for example, vacuum to successfully harvest, prepare and reinject fat cells. The fat harvesting system can size harvested fat cells so as to be especially desirable for different injection locations in the body. The fat harvesting system is a single use, disposable system that requires no sterilization equipment and recovered and sized fat cells are maintained in a sanitary environment so as to avoid contamination that could result in having to discard recovered fat cells.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2023Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Chopra Gryskiewicz, LLCInventors: Karan Chopra, Joseph M. Gryskiewicz, Richard A. Thompson, Reed O. Saunders, Evan M. Leingang, Thomas A. Tedham, Mohamed A. Mohamed, Jacob T. Wilson, Brett J. Herdegen, Jason N. Scherer, Landon Hove Dinger, Justin A. Barbot

Publication number: 20240090748Abstract: A system includes an endoscope connector and an endoscope adapter. The endoscope connector includes a first portion. The first portion includes a first magnetic coupling element and a first planar portion that is perpendicular to an axial direction of the endoscope connector. The endoscope adapter includes a second planar portion. The second planar portion includes a second magnetic coupling element and a substantially planar surface that is perpendicular to an axial direction of the endoscope adapter. The endoscope connector is non-mechanically attachable to the endoscope adapter using the first magnetic coupling element and the second magnetic coupling element. The first planar portion is alignable with the second planar portion such that: electroconductive contacts of the endoscope connector are axially aligned with electroconductive pins of the endoscope adapter and a port of the endoscope connector is axially aligned with a corresponding insertion port of the endoscope adapter.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Anina COOTER, Michael KLOTER, Evan M. LEINGANG, Kevin R. LOCHNER, Indrek-Toomas POLLUKS, Marko RADOSEVIC, Jeremy ROTH, Reed O. SAUNDERS, Thomas A. TEDHAM, Richard A. THOMPSON, II, Chase VAN ROSSEN
