  • APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR REDUCING RESTRICTIONS TO AIR FLOW IN AN ABATEMENT SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20090148339
    Abstract: An abatement system is provided, including an abatement unit adapted to abate effluent using ambient air; and an ambient air delivery system in fluid communication with the abatement unit and adapted to deliver ambient air to the abatement unit; wherein the ambient air delivery system allows sufficient ambient air to flow into the abatement unit to abate the effluent without compressed air. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Non-deforming deflectable multi-lumen catheter
    Patent number: 6554794
    Abstract: A non-deforming deflectable multi-lumen catheter with an outer jacket having a deflectable distal end portion, an eccentric pull wire lumen, coil and shim embedded therein. The deflectable distal portion optionally having one or more transaxial notches in the external surface of the outer jacket. A functional device is disposed within the lumen of an inner tube substantially coaxial with the outer jacket of the catheter. The distal tip of the functional device egressible from the distal tip of the catheter, and upon deflection, automatically aligns with the distal tip of the catheter and functional device.

  • Drug delivery module
    Patent number: 6309375
    Abstract: A modular drug delivery system for use by cardiothoracic surgeons and interventional cardiologists for delivery of molecular and cellular therapies that target genes, molecules and peptides. The regulated drug delivery devices comprise a modular mechanically actuated drug delivery module (DDM) that can be attached to either a surgical viewing endoscope hand-piece or specialized catheter for interventional procedures. The DDM provides metering of drugs to treatment sites and allows for quick interchangeability with other component parts such as a viewing scope end portion for MIS or other surgical procedures or a flexible catheter shaft for percutaneous procedures.
