Publication number: 20230371800Abstract: The present disclosure relates to medical devices. More particularly, this disclosure describes a hysteroscope having a multi-lumened elongated distal outer tube extending from a proximate body to a distal portion. The hysteroscope may allocate space for an optical, luminescence, irrigation and working lumens that substantially extend through the outer tube. These lumens, or channels, as provided in this disclosure will be defined in different cross-sections of the distal outer tube maximizing the area therein. In an illustrative example, an ellipse-shaped lumen surrounded by a circular outer tube defines one such cross-section and may include the optical and working lumens with light fibers positioned between the lumens all within the ellipse-shaped lumen. Exterior to the ellipse-shaped lumen may be a first and second irrigation lumen.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2023Publication date: November 23, 2023Applicant: Caldera Medical, Inc.Inventors: Jose Luis Charvet, Vishtasb Farkhondeh

Publication number: 20200268404Abstract: A drive system for a tissue resection device that drives a cutting tube in a rotating and reciprocating motion simultaneously. The cutting tube moves within an outer tube having a window at a distal end thereof. When activation of the device ceases, the device remains powered until the cutting tube assumes an extended position, thereby closing the window.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2020Publication date: August 27, 2020Applicant: Caldera Medical, Inc.Inventors: Mike Collinson, Manish Vaishya, Jose Luis Charvet

Publication number: 20200258426Abstract: A synthetic model of a uterine cavity having deflated and inflated configuration that simulate the normally flat configuration of a human uterus. Pathologies may be provided within the model and an access for an instrument, such as a hysteroscope, is provided such that, in the deflated configuration, a view or access to the pathology is at least partially obstructed by the cavity walls, requiring a user of the model to inflate the cavity to the inflated configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2020Publication date: August 13, 2020Applicant: Caldera Medical, Inc.Inventor: Jose Luis Charvet
-
Publication number: 20190133640Abstract: A compact multi-lumened hysteroscope, a single-use tissue resector, and a medical system employing the same for diagnosis and therapeutic treatment of uterine tissue, such as polyps and fibroids.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2018Publication date: May 9, 2019Applicant: Caldera Medical, Inc.Inventors: Jose Luis Charvet, Felix Lu, Sandra Muhlfeld

Patent number: 9526529Abstract: A spinal fixation system comprising a bone screw, a body, and a pressure cap. The bone screw may comprise a head at a proximal end and a bone connection element at a distal end. The body may comprise a proximal end, a distal end, a mounting rod receiving channel at the proximal end and a bone screw head receiving channel at the distal end. A proximal end of the pressure cap may comprise two side walls disposed apart from each other and one biasing member on each side wall. A distal end of the pressure cap may comprise a surface operable to contact at least a portion of the head of the bone screw. The pressure cap may be operable to exert pressure on the bone screw when a mounting rod is biased against the proximal end of the pressure cap.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2013Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: BLACKSTONE MEDICAL, INC.Inventor: Jose Luis Charvet

Patent number: 8800113Abstract: A rigid modular connector operable to attach to any type of standard male surgical feature that is suitable for large axial loads in both rotational and translational directions while providing accurate tactile feedback. The rigid modular connector includes a handle, a connector rigidly affixed to a proximal end of the handle, and a collar that may slide longitudinally about the connector. The collar may further include one or more leaf springs that are operable to pivot slightly away from or closer to the collar. When the collar slides towards the handle on the connector, the one or more leaf springs may pivot inwardly, locking the collar with the handle in an open position. When the collar slides or the collar slides towards a proximal end of the connector, the one or more leaf springs may pivot outwardly, locking the collar with the connector in a closed position.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: August 12, 2014Assignee: Blackstone Medical, Inc.Inventor: Jose Luis Charvet
