    Abstract: An apparatus includes an outer coil, a navigation coil, and a distal tip member. The outer coil defines an interior region bounded by inner diameter. The navigation coil is positioned distal to the distal end of the outer coil. The navigation coil is configured to generate a signal in response to movement of the navigation coil within an electromagnetic field. The distal tip member is positioned distal to the navigation coil, such that the navigation coil is longitudinally interposed between the distal tip member and the distal end of the outer coil. The apparatus may be used in combination with a navigation system to provide navigation of paranasal sinus cavities and other structures within a patient.

    Abstract: A system for accessing a sinus cavity of a subject includes an access tool configured to penetrate into the sinus cavity from a location external the subject. The system further includes an access sheath having a distal tubular portion, a lumen extending through the access sheath and the distal tubular portion and dimensioned to receive the access tool, the distal tubular portion comprising one or more cutting surfaces disposed about an external surface thereof. The one or more cutting surfaces may include a plurality of longitudinally oriented grooves for flutes disposed about the periphery of the distal tubular member.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprises a body and a conduit. The body comprises an absorbent material. The conduit is in fluid communication with the body. The conduit has a suction opening positioned within the absorbent material. The conduit is operable to draw fluid away from the absorbent material. The apparatus may be positioned within the posterior choana or the nasopharynx of a patient using a deployment instrument. The apparatus may prevent fluids from draining from the nasal cavity into the patient's throat. In some instances, the apparatus is used as a plug during a sinus irrigation procedure to prevent irrigation fluid from traveling down the patient's throat.

    Abstract: A system for manipulating a guide catheter within a patient's nasal passages or sinus cavities includes a guide catheter formed from an elongate flexible member having a lumen passing there through. A wire guide is slidably disposed within the lumen of the guide catheter. The system further includes a steering member fixedly secured to a proximal end of the wire guide and a proximal hub secured to a proximal end of the guide catheter. The system further includes a recessed handle having a first recess for fixedly receiving the proximal hub of the guide catheter and a second recess for receiving the steering member, the second recess being dimensioned to permit axial and rotational movement of the steering member while disposed in the second recess.

    Abstract: A latch pick assembly providing a pick portion dimensioned and adapted to establish, adjust and break the latch of a breastfeeding infant is provided. The pick portion provides opposing front and rear surfaces that taper toward each other as they terminate at a distal forward edge. The forward edge provides a plurality of protrusions which share the longitudinal and transverse concavity of the front surface and corresponding longitudinal and transverse convexity of the rear surface. The forward edge enables the gentle urging of an infant's lips into positions for a proper latch, and the adjusting and breaking of the latch during breastfeeding.
