Patent number: 11724066Abstract: The present embodiments provide strain relief members for a medical device delivery system, methods of use thereof, and methods of manufacturing. In one embodiment a strain relief member may include a support having a first end with a first outer diameter, a second end having a second outer diameter, an inner surface facing a support lumen that extends axially through the support along a longitudinal axis, and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface. An embodiment may also include an overlay coupled to a portion of the outer surface of the support, where the overlay comprises a first material and the support comprises a second material, and the first material is more flexible than the second material. A liner may be disposed in a portion of the support lumen and a first connector disposed over a portion of the support.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: Erin Roberts, Elizabeth M.

Publication number: 20210085161Abstract: A device for guiding an elongate body into a channel of a scope may include a main body extending between a proximal end portion and a distal end portion and a lumen extending through the main body. The device may be slidably attached onto the elongate body such that the elongate body may be threaded through the lumen of the device, out of the distal end portion of the main body of the device, and into the channel of the scope. When a distal end of the elongate body reaches a desired location inside the channel, the device may be moved along the elongate body from a first position to a second position, where the device may be releasably coupled with respect to the elongate body.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Applicant: Cook Medical Technologies LLCInventors: ERIN ROBERTS, Jorge L. Jimenez-Rios, Lyle Hundley, Johnny P. Smith, Jonathan Sheets, Tyler Dow, Mitchell T. Aman, Kristen M. Bunch
