  • Patent number: 11724066
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20210085920
    Abstract: The present embodiments provide strain relief members for a medical device delivery system, methods of use, and methods of manufacturing. In one embodiment, a medical device delivery system may include a body member with a first end having a first outer diameter, a second end having a second outer diameter, an inner surface facing a lumen that extends axially through the body member along a longitudinal axis, and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface. The embodiment also includes a threaded first connector at the first end of the body member. The outer surface of the body member may include a plurality of depressions. The body member may include a first material. The first connector may include a second material. The first material is more flexible than the second material. A portion of the outer surface of the body member may cover a portion of the first connector.

  • Patent number: 10335573
    Abstract: Medical devices useful in the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents, kits and methods are described. An example catheter comprises an elongate member having an elongate member proximal end, an elongate member distal end, and an elongate member main body extending between the elongate member proximal end and the elongate member distal end. The elongate member main body defines an elongate member circumferential wall, first, second, and third openings on the elongate member proximal end, a first heating lumen extending from the first opening toward the elongate member distal end, a second heating lumen extending from the second opening toward the elongate member distal end, and a treatment lumen extending from the third opening toward the elongate member distal end. The treatment lumen comprises a blind passage. The elongate member circumferential wall defines a plurality of passageways providing fluid communication between the treatment lumen and an environment external to the catheter.
