Patent number: 10376316Abstract: A tissue cutting device includes a flexible elongate body including a channel extending therethrough, a distal member connected to a distal end of the elongate body. The distal member includes a lumen extending therethrough in communication with the channel and a recess extending through an exterior surface of the distal member along a portion of a length thereof. The recess extends includes a receiving structure at a distal end thereof. A cutting element is slidably received within the channel and the lumen so that the cutting element is movable between an open tissue-receiving configuration and a closed tissue-gripping configuration, in which a distal portion of the cutting element extends across the recess such that the distal end of the cutting element is received within the receiving structure, a portion of a length of the distal portion extending radially beyond an exterior surface of the distal member.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2016Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.Inventors: Paul Smith, Robert Charles, Jon Taylor, Daniel E. Hamilton, Samuel Raybin, Robert B. Devries, Niklas Andersson, Meghan Elizabeth Soens, Mary Ann Cornell, Ray H. Tong

Patent number: 10016190Abstract: A tissue retractor for attachment to an elongate member of a medical device. The tissue retractor includes a cap having a central longitudinal axis. The cap includes an attachment section adapted to attach to a distal end of the elongate member. The cap further includes a moveable component pivotally attached to the attachment section at one or more pivot points, and an actuator connected to the moveable component to transition the moveable component across the central longitudinal axis from an insertion state to an actuated state.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.Inventors: Paul Smith, Mary Ann Cornell, Samuel Raybin, Robert Devries, Meghan E. Soens, Niklas Andersson, Shawn Ryan, Matthew R. Jagelski, Ray H. Tong, Celine Chin, Jon Taylor, Daniel E. Hamilton, Robert Charles
