  • Publication number: 20250009970
    Abstract: An injector device for medical use includes a needle, a barrel in fluid communication with the needle, and a plunger sealing the barrel's proximal end. The injector device further includes a needle cover, a housing with a channel, and an adhesive base for securing the injector to a patient's skin. The housing channel has openings for the barrel and needle. A handle and coupler mechanism facilitate the removal of the needle cover and adhesive cover from the adhesive base. An assembly method involves installing the barrel into the distal housing channel, ensuring fluid communication with the needle, sealing the barrel's proximal end with a plunger, and coupling the distal housing to a proximal housing. The handle is then pulled to remove the adhesive cover and needle cover from the adhesive base, preparing the injector for use.

  • Publication number: 20240374864
    Abstract: A method for assembling a liner in a tube includes placing a liner in a tube, and heating a portion of the liner, called a heated portion, with a local heat source. The heated portion is not more than a third of a total length of the liner. The heated portion is expanded radially outwards so that the heated portion abuts against an inner wall of the tube.

  • Patent number: 12138168
    Abstract: An annuloplasty implant comprises a flexible member, helical anchors, and non-compressible portions. The helical anchors are configured to anchor the flexible member at least partway around the valve by being screwed into tissue of the heart of a subject. Each of the non-compressible portions comprises a helical coil having a plurality of turns, and at rest has a helix pitch that contacts each turn of the coil with an adjacent turn of the coil. The flexible member extends through the non-compressible portions. The implant is configured such that applying tension to the flexible member from one end thereof contracts the implant, thereby drawing the anchors closer to each other, the helical coil of each of the non-compressible portions inhibiting contraction of the implant at the non-compressible portion.

  • Patent number: 12138429
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a cartridge is described. An injection needle is inserted into a mold that forms a barrel. The barrel defines an open proximal end, an opposing distal end, an internal reservoir therebetween, and an arm projecting distally from the distal end of the barrel and having a portion bent at a fixed angle. The injection needle is positioned within a portion of the mold configured to form the arm of the barrel, and a terminal needle tip is oriented such that a beveled opening of the needle tip is distally facing. The injection needle is stabilized against movement with a gripping device. The mold is filled with resin to form the barrel around the injection needle. The gripping device is separated from the injection needle upon hardening of the resin.

  • Patent number: 12097118
    Abstract: An anchor of an implant is transluminally advanced to a heart of a subject, the anchor including a distal helical element, and a post extending proximally from the distal helical element. The implant is anchored to tissue of the heart by driving the distal helical element into tissue of the heart, and compressing a fabric tube against the tissue by moving an annular member, coupled to the post, toward the tissue such that the fabric tube becomes sandwiched between the annular member and the tissue. Other embodiments are also described.

  • Publication number: 20230405276
    Abstract: A steering tool includes an internal tube disposed inside an external tube. The internal and external tubes are arranged for longitudinal axial movement relative to one another. A distal end of the internal tube is fixedly joined to a distal end of the external tube. At least one of the internal and external tubes is slotted near the distal end thereof, and the longitudinal axial movement causes bending of the distal ends of the tubes.

  • Patent number: 11844665
    Abstract: A first part of an annuloplasty structure is anchored to an annulus of a valve of a heart by using a driver to screw a tissue-coupling element of a first anchor into a first site of the annulus, such that the tissue-coupling element enters cardiac tissue in a direction parallel to a central longitudinal axis of the driver through the distal end of the anchor driver. The same is subsequently done for second and third parts of the annuloplasty structure using second and third anchors at second and third sites of the annulus, mutatis mutandis. Between anchors, the driver is retracted out of the heart. Subsequently, the valve is treated by reducing a distance between the first site and the second site, and a distance between the second site and the third site, by tightening a flexible and elongate contracting member of the annuloplasty structure.
