Patent number: 9492154Abstract: Devices and methods for retracting tissue, such as bowels and organs, within the body of a patient are generally disclosed. In particular, the present disclosure describes surgical retractors having a series of intersecting strands defining openings there between, wherein the openings are enlargeable by slidable passage of the strands relative to one another. The present disclosure also teaches surgical retractors having a frame that defines a central opening and a supporting structure extending across the central opening and defining a plurality of openings, wherein the frame extends through the openings. In some embodiments, a surgical retractor comprises a monolithic polymeric structure extending across the central opening defined by a frame. Other embodiments and methods are disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2015Date of Patent: November 15, 2016Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Jeffry S. Melsheimer, Leslie Cook, Brian Pak-Yun Feng, Nathan S. Steinbrunner, Joshua Haines, Amro Kamel

Patent number: 9358098Abstract: Described, in certain aspects, are medical devices that can be used to anchor graft materials to bodily structures. These devices comprise an implantable graft structure and tissue ingrowth material. This implantable graft structure is comprised of a body of persistent material having a first face and one or more openings defined therein, wherein the persistent material body first face is configured for opposing a bodily structure wall upon implantation. This tissue ingrowth material is positioned at the one or more persistent material body openings, and is configured for receiving tissue ingrowth from the bodily structure wall effective to anchor the graft structure to the bodily structure wall. The invention also provides methods utilizing these and other inventive medical devices, for example, to anchor graft materials to vascular vessel walls and/or other bodily structures.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2010Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventor: Brian Pak-Yun Feng

Patent number: 9192710Abstract: A catheter for use in the extracorporeal treatment of bodily fluids comprises a catheter body having a withdrawal port, an infusion port, and a plurality of lumens therein. The lumens comprise two or more withdrawal lumens that merge to form a single lumen proximal to withdrawal ports for transport of fluids withdrawn from a body vessel through the withdrawal port to an extracorporeal treatment unit, such as a dialyzer. The lumens also comprise an infusion lumen for infusion of treated fluids from the extracorporeal treatment unit through the infusion port into the vessel. The infusion lumen is disposed substantially at the center of the catheter body, while the withdrawal lumens extend longitudinally adjacent the infusion lumen along the catheter body length. A manifold may be provided at the proximal end of the catheter body to include the merger of the withdrawal lumens.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2013Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: COOK MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES LLCInventors: Brian Pak-Yun Feng, Christopher D.
