Abstract: The present disclosure relates to medical devices that that include the following: a flexible elongate tube having a proximal end and a distal end configured to be directed toward an opening of a body lumen; a first lumen extending from the distal end of the tube proximally along the tube and having a fluid connection for a fluid source at its proximal end; a second lumen extending from the distal end of the tube proximally along the tube, the second lumen configured to accept a guidewire extending along the second lumen; and a wire filament extending along the elongate tube, a distal end of the filament connected to the distal end of the elongate tube, a proximal portion of the wire extending at least partially along the elongate tube, and a distal portion of the wire extending external to the elongate tube.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of minimally invasive catheter-based devices and procedures for the removal of necrotic debris. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for the removal of necrotic debris from within a walled off necrosis without disrupting or damaging the tissue wall of the necrotic pocket.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to a medical device delivery system. The system may include a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end. The device may also include a visualization system at a distal region of the shaft. The system may further include at least one latching structure configured to extend beyond the distal end of the shaft and retract within the distal region of the shaft and at least one advancement mechanism configured to extend beyond the distal end of the shaft to pull the shaft in a distal direction.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to medical devices and procedures for placement of a medical device between adjacent tissue structures. In particular, the present disclosure relates to endoscopic systems and methods for preventing or minimizing movement between tissue walls to facilitate placement of a stent therebetween.

Abstract: According to aspects of the present disclosure, a system for visualizing a target area may include an elongate shaft. The elongate shaft may include a distal portion, a lumen that extends longitudinally through the distal portion, and an opening at the distal end of the distal portion. The opening may be in communication with the lumen. The system also may include a visualization assembly housed within the distal portion of the elongate shaft. The visualization assembly may include a transducer array having a field of view in which the transducer array transceives sound waves. The field of view of the transducer array may cover at least part of the distal portion of the elongate shaft and the target area to facilitate visualization of the part of the distal portion of the elongate shaft and the target area.

Abstract: A pre-packaged cheese snack includes a tray having two receptacles with a hinge there between so that the receptacles can be oriented in a stacked orientation and movable to an open orientation. The receptacles have a shape and a volume. A snack-sized piece of perishable cheese is disposed in each receptacle such that each piece of cheese has generally the same shape and volume as its respective receptacle. A sealing member encloses each piece of cheese in the respective receptacle, the sealing member being removable to allow access to the pieces of cheese. A fastener holds the receptacles in the stacked orientation to form a single pod, the fastener being movable to allow the receptacles to be moved to the open orientation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of medical devices and establishing access to body lumens. In particular, the present disclosure relates to medical devices, systems and methods for facilitating access to an opening of a body lumen through an endoscope by at least partially dilating the opening with fluid from a fluid source prior to contacting the body lumen.

Abstract: A display container is provided including a body having a tray and a tab positioned on at least one edge of the tray, and a hinge disposed between the tray and the tab. The tray has a cavity. The body is formed with the tab in a first position relative to the tray. The tab is movable by way of the hinge to a second position different from the first position.

Abstract: A storable composition for oilfield application including a slurry of a carrier fluid and a particulate blend made of proppant; the particulate blend comprising at least a first amount of particulates having a first average particle size between about 100 and 5000 ?m and at least a second amount of particulates having a second average particle size between about three and twenty times smaller than the first average particle size; such that a packed volume fraction of the particulate blend exceeds 0.74 and the particulate blend volume is sufficient to substantially avoid settling of the particulate in the carrier fluid.
