Publication number: 20240216651Abstract: A system for controlling a hemostasis valve comprising a body portion having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen extending between the proximal end and the distal end, at least one valve positioned in the proximal end of the body portion, and an engagement member operatively coupled to the at least one valve, where the body portion is configured to pivot from a raised position to an-in use position. The system includes a drive member configured to couple to the engagement member as the body portion of the hemostasis valve pivots to the in-use position and to uncouple from the engagement member as the hemostasis valve pivots to the raised position, and a controller coupled to the drive member, the controller configured to control the drive member to impart movement to the engagement member to open and close the at least one valve.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2024Publication date: July 4, 2024Inventors: Peter Falb, Adam Young, Kevin Bagley, Erin-Anne Lemieux, Christopher Labak, Steven J. Blacker, Michael Atlas

Patent number: 11964116Abstract: A system for controlling a hemostasis valve includes a hemostasis valve having a body portion having a proximal end, a distal end and a lumen extending between the proximal end and the distal end. The hemostasis value further includes at least one valve positioned in the proximal end of the body portion and an engagement member operatively coupled to the at least one valve. The system further includes a first drive member coupled to the engagement member and a controller coupled to the first drive member. The controller is configured to control the first drive member to impart movement to the engagement member to open and close the at least one valve.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Corindus, Inc.Inventors: Peter Falb, Adam Young, Kevin Bagley, Erin-Anne Lemieux, Christopher Labak, Steven J.

Patent number: 11801366Abstract: A robotic catheter system includes a base and a robotic mechanism having a longitudinal axis and being movable relative to the base along the longitudinal axis. A flexible track is releasably secured to the base and includes an outer surface having a longitudinal opening slit extending therethrough to an inner channel. A rigid guide has a non-linear portion fixed relative to the robotic mechanism. A portion of the flexible track moves along the non-linear portion of the rigid guide away from the longitudinal axis when the robotic mechanism moves along the longitudinal axis.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2019Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Corindus, Inc.Inventors: Peter Falb, Adam Young, Kevin Bagley, Erin-Anne Lemieux, Christopher Labak, Steven J. Blacker, Michael Atlas

Publication number: 20210283335Abstract: A syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end. The syringe assembly further includes a stopper disposed within a chamber of the syringe barrel, a plunger adapter engaged with the stopper, and a plunger rod having first and second ends. The first end of the plunger rod is pivotally secured to the plunger adapter. The plunger rod has a pre-use position where the second end of the plunger rod is positioned adjacent to the syringe barrel, and a use position where the plunger rod is configured to displace the stopper relative to the syringe barrel. A recessed portion of the plunger adapter receives a portion of the first end of the plunger rod when the plunger rod is in the pre-use position and the use position.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Darrin Scott Manke, Christopher Labak, Joseph Omer St. Cyr
