  • Systems and methods for mechanical displacement of an esophagus
    Patent number: 11890406
    Abstract: An example assembly for use with a vacuum system and an esophageal positioning device esophageal positioning device includes an introducer, in which the esophageal positioning device includes a handle, a first segment, a second segment and an articulation driving mechanism. The first segment being coupled to the handle. The second segment being pivotally connected to the first segment. The articulation driving mechanism being configured to pivot the second segment about the first segment upon articulation.

  • Patent@LBHIP.com
    Publication number: 20230380911
    Abstract: Electromagnetic sensing for use with ablation treatment devices are described. Generally, an elongate body may be configured for introduction into an esophageal lumen and a distal portion may be pivotably coupled to the elongate body such that actuation of the distal portion reconfigures the distal portion within a plane relative to the elongate body. The elongate body may define one or more openings along the distal portion and which are in fluid communication with a fluid port. A sensor may also be positioned near or at a distal end of the distal portion where the sensor is configured to communicate with an electromagnetic navigational system to determine a distance to an ablation catheter.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MECHANICAL DISPLACEMENT OF AN ESOPHAGUS
    Publication number: 20220346799
    Abstract: An example assembly for use with a vacuum system and an esophageal positioning device esophageal positioning device includes an introducer, in which the esophageal positioning device includes a first segment and a second segment. The second segment is pivotally connected to the first segment. A gap portion of an outer tube of the introducer is defined along a longitudinal axis between a tube tip of the introducer and the distal end of the second segment of the esophageal positioning device when the esophageal positioning device is disposed within the introducer. The gap portion defines one or more radial vacuum holes.
