Patent number: 10687791Abstract: A biopsy device includes a cannula that defines a tissue chamber configured to receive a tissue sample from a patient. A pressure chamber includes a body having a distal end and a proximal end. The proximal end has an inlet coupled in fluid communication with the cannula. The body has a first recessed area proximate the proximal end, wherein the first recessed area is configured to release positive pressure within the pressure chamber. The body has a second recessed area proximate the distal end, wherein the second recessed area is configured to release negative pressure within the pressure chamber. A piston is movably received in the body and configured to move over the first recessed area to release the positive pressure and configured to move over the second recessed area to release the negative pressure.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: C. R. Bard, Inc.Inventors: Jason Seiger, Rafal Chudzik, Angela Jensen, Glen Lazok

Patent number: 9775588Abstract: A biopsy device includes a pressure chamber having a body having a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the proximal end includes an inlet. At least one first recessed area extends along an inner wall of the body, proximate the proximal end of the body of the pressure chamber. The first recessed area is configured to release pressure within the pressure chamber. At least one second recessed area extends along the inner wall of the body, proximate the distal end of the body of the pressure chamber. The second recessed area is configured to release pressure within the pressure chamber. A cannula is coupled to the pressure chamber for taking a tissue sample from a patient. The cannula defines a tissue chamber. A fluid receptacle is interposed between the tissue chamber and the pressure chamber. The fluid receptacle has an absorbent material to absorb a fluid.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: October 3, 2017Assignee: C. R. Bard, Inc.Inventors: Jason Seiger, Rafal Chudzik, Angela Jensen, Glen Lazok
