Abstract: A medical device system may include a replacement heart valve implant including an expandable anchor member reversibly actuatable between a delivery configuration and a deployed configuration, wherein the replacement heart valve implant includes at least one locking mechanism configured to lock the expandable anchor member in the deployed configuration, and at least one actuator element configured to releasably engage the at least one locking mechanism and actuate the expandable anchor member between the delivery configuration and the deployed configuration. The at least one actuator element may include external threads on a distal portion of each actuator element and a ramp disposed proximal of the external threads.

Abstract: An aneurysm surgical clip includes two rotatably interconnected clip parts and a leg spring. The leg spring has two spring legs of which are in each case supported on the two clip parts so as to mutually pretension the two clip parts. The leg spring is formed from a plastics material, in particular PEEK, that is reinforced with continuous carbon fibers. The continuous carbon fibers are aligned along the spring coilings of the leg spring. The two clip parts have in each case one axially projecting protrusion on which the respective spring leg of the leg spring is supported.

Abstract: An integral surgical clip includes two clamping arms and a non-spring-elastic connection portion that interconnects the two clamping arms in an integral manner. The two clamping arms on account of a plastic deformation of the clip are pivotable towards one another from an opened initial position up to a closed end position. The two clamping arms engage on the connection portion so as to be mutually spaced apart and are in each case extended beyond the connection portion by one lever arm molded thereon, and wherein, by squeezing the two lever arms, the two clamping arms, on account of a plastic deformation of the connection portion, are pivotable from the closed end position to an opened position. The two lever arms, in particular at the external ends thereof, are interconnected by an external connection arm.

Abstract: An ophthalmosurgical injector system includes an injector, which has a handpiece, a plunger and a dispensing device; an intraocular lens, which has an optic body, a C-shaped first haptic arm protruding from the optic body and a C-shaped second haptic arm protruding from the optic body; a cartridge, in which the intraocular lens is received, wherein the cartridge is inserted in the injector; and an actuation element, which has a contact surface, and a locking element, with which a position of the plunger relative to the handpiece or to the cartridge can be locked. The plunger can be locked in a first position, in which the intraocular lens is held in the cartridge in a compressed and pretensioned state in which an outer distance from the first haptic arm to the second haptic arm is greater than 8 mm and less than 11 mm.

Abstract: A tourniquet is presented with a strap including two patterns of cavities and ridges on top and bottom surfaces respectively. The pattern includes a plurality of spaced cavities arranged in parallel rows, the cavity being rectangular and including two first slopes on two short sides respectively and two second slopes on two elongated sides respectively, the first slopes having an elevation greater than that of the second slopes, and the second slopes having an inclined degree greater than that of the first slopes; and a plurality of spaced depressions arranged in parallel rows, the depression being adjacent to the cavity widthwise, the depression being rectangular, and the depression including two third slopes on two short sides respectively and two fourth slopes on two elongated sides respectively. Depths of the cavity and the depression are different.
