Maureen L. Mulvihill - Bellefonte PA, US
Jeffery P. Klaus - State College PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Middleburg PA, US
International Classification:
A61M 25/00
US Classification:

A device for clearing blockages is provided that may have a tube that is slit. The tube may have a lumen. A reciprocating member may be provided and a portion of the reciprocating member may be located within the lumen.

Device For Aiding In The Positioning And Anchoring Of An Endoscope During Gastrointestinal Procedures

View page
US Patent:
20220322916, Oct 13, 2022
Filed:
Jun 14, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/839989
Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
Eric J. Hopkins - Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Bellefonte PA, US
Kevin A. Snook - State College PA, US
Assignee:
Actuated Medical, Inc. - Bellefonte PA
International Classification:
A61B 1/00
A61B 17/29
Abstract:
A medical instrument having integrated arms extending from a proximal end to a distal end, and a handpiece with actuators to control movement of the arms. The instrument includes an insertion tube having arm channel(s) for receiving an arm therethrough. Each arm includes an engagement member at the distal end of resilient material with a natural non-linear configuration when deployed but deforming when retracted into the arm channel when retracted. Arm channels may be located at different radial distances from one another in the insertion tube so the engagement members may be at radial angles relative to one another when deployed. Arms and engagement members are movable between at least a first position and second position relative to one another by rotation and/or translational motion of the corresponding actuator, to contact tissue or deflect a tool extended through the working channel of the endoscope.

Lancing Device With Ejector

View page
US Patent:
20210353192, Nov 18, 2021
Filed:
Jul 21, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/381838
Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Bellefonte PA, US
Eric M. Steffan - Karthaus PA, US
Robert Van Ess - State College PA, US
Assignee:
Actuated Medical, Inc. - Bellefonte PA
International Classification:
A61B 5/15
A61B 5/151
Abstract:
A lancing device with an ejector that is movably retained with a housing in proximity to a lancet and is selectively movable between a home position, a first eject position, an intermediate position defined by contact of the ejector with the lancet, and a second eject position. The ejector is rotatable to move from the home to first eject position and is linearly translatable to move between the first and second eject positions. The ejector includes an arm that extends within the housing and engages the lancet, an exterior portion that is actuated by a user, and a post extending therebetween. The post extends through a slot in the housing which limits the linear movement and direction of the ejector. Upon rotation of the ejector, the arm extends through an opening at the rear of the carriage holding the lancet to permit access to the lancet.

Device And Method For Automated Insertion Of Penetrating Member

US Patent:
20200261113, Aug 20, 2020
Filed:
Apr 1, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/837675
Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
- Houston TX, US
Maureen L. Mulvihill - Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Middleburg PA, US
Kevin A. Snook - State College PA, US
William E. Cohn - Bellaire TX, US
James Patrick Herlihy - Houston TX, US
Kenneth Wayne Rennicks - Pearland TX, US
Assignee:
Actuated Medical, Inc. - Bellefonte PA
Ex Machina Medical LLC - Houston TX
International Classification:
A61B 17/34
Abstract:
An automatic insertion device and method of using the same is provided. A vibrator and an extender are connected to a penetrating member and are both in electrical communication with a controller. A detector identifies a subcutaneous target for insertion and the insertion angle, distance and trajectory for the penetrating member are calculated. The vibrator provides vibrations to the penetrating member and the extender advances the penetrating member for insertion. The vibrator and extender are in electrical communication with one another during the insertion process and adjustments to the insertion speed are made based on feedback of vibrational load encountered by the vibrator during insertion, and adjustments to the vibrations are made based on feedback of insertion load encountered by the extender during insertion. Iterative samples are taken to constantly adjust the operation of one motor based on the operations and feedback from the other motor.

Devices For Clearing Blockages In Artificial And Natural Lumens

US Patent:
20190192385, Jun 27, 2019
Filed:
Mar 4, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/291480
Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
Ryan S. Clement - State College PA, US
Katherine M. Erdley - Boalsburg PA, US
Maureen L. Mulvihill - Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Bellefonte PA, US
Douglas R. Dillon - Port Matilda PA, US
Timothy J. Higgins - Mingoville PA, US
Assignee:
Actuated Medical, Inc. - Bellefonte PA
International Classification:
A61J 15/00
A61M 3/02
A61B 17/22
A61B 17/3207
A61M 25/00
A61M 1/00
A61B 90/70
Abstract:
An occlusion clearing device for a patient has a housing with a motor(s) that generates repetitive motion, which is reciprocating, rotational or both. A clearing stem including a sheath that has a lumen, wherein aspiration is conducted through the sheath lumen. A wire is located in the sheath lumen and receives repetitive motion from the controller. The sheath terminates in a sheath end having at least one sheath opening. The wire terminates in a wire tip, which may be flat, helical, or tubular. The wire tip is positioned within the sheath end, in proximity to the sheath opening(s), and movement of the wire tip and/or sheath end relative to each other creates shearing forces that break up an adjacent occlusion.

US Patent:
20190015125, Jan 17, 2019
Filed:
Jul 13, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/034965
Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
Timothy J. Higgins - Mingoville PA, US
Eric J. Hopkins - Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Bellefonte PA, US
Kevin A. Snook - State College PA, US
Assignee:
Actualed Medical, Inc. - Bellefonte PA
International Classification:
A61B 17/29
Abstract:
A device for engaging tissue includes a body disposable around the distal end of a medical instrument, such as an endoscope, and a handpiece. The body includes a primary channel for receiving the medical instrument and at least one arm channel for receiving an arm therethrough. At least one arm extends through the arm channel of the body and proximally to the handpiece. The arm includes an engagement member distally of the body, and may further include a bend between the body and engagement member. The engagement member is movable between a first position not contacting tissue and a second position contacting tissue. With multiple engagement members, the engagement members are farther apart from one another in the first position and closer together in the second position. Movement of the engagement members is controlled by selective and independent movement of the corresponding arms by rotational and/or translational motion.

Inventors:
- Bellefonte PA, US
Ryan S. Clement - State College PA, US
Maureen L. Mulvihill - Bellefonte PA, US
Casey A. Scruggs - Middleburg PA, US
Kevin A. Snook - State College PA, US
Assignee:
Actuated Medical, lnc. - Bellefonte PA
International Classification:
A61M 25/09
Abstract:
A device for penetrating tissue with reduced force and placing a guidewire is provided. The device includes a driving actuator generating reciprocating motion at less than 20 kHz. A penetrating member having a lumen dimensioned to accommodate a guidewire is provided, and may be coaxial or axially offset from the driving actuator. A coupler mechanically connects the driving actuator and the penetrating member, transferring the reciprocating motion to the penetrating member. At least one frictional member facilitates the movement of the guidewire through the lumen for placement at the target tissue. The frictional member(s) may be operated manually or by a guidewire actuator. A housing including a channel Iso dimensioned to accommodate the guidewire may also be provided, and may further include the frictional member(s) for facilitating movement of the guidewire. A side port may also be included at the penetrating member or coupler for introduction of the guidewire.
