Abstract: A thermal ablation system comprises a fluid handling unit receiving fluid from a fluid source at a first pressure, the fluid handling unit including a heater heating the fluid to a desired temperature and a pump and an introducer including a sheath which, when in an operative position, is received within a hollow organ, the sheath including a delivery lumen introducing fluid heated by the heater to the hollow organ and a return lumen withdrawing fluid from the hollow organ and returning the withdrawn fluid to the console via a return lumen, wherein the pump increases a pressure of the fluid between the fluid source and the delivery lumen of the introducer.

Abstract: A system and method for performing tissue therapy may include applying a reduced pressure to a tissue site of a patient. A fluid parameter associated with applying a reduced pressure to the tissue site may be sensed. An audible fluid leak location sound may be generated in response to sensing the fluid parameter. The audible fluid leak location sound may be altered in response to sensing that the fluid parameter changes. By altering the audible fluid leak location sound in response to sensing a change of the fluid parameter, a clinician may detect location of a fluid leak at the drape by applying force to the drape. The force applied to the drape may be a clinician pressing a finger onto an edge of the drape.

Abstract translation: 用于进行组织治疗的系统和方法可以包括将减压施加到患者的组织部位。 可以感测与向组织部位施加减压相关联的流体参数。 可以响应于感测流体参数而产生可听见的流体泄漏位置声音。 响应于感测流体参数的改变，可能改变可听见的流体泄漏位置声音。 通过响应于感测流体参数的变化来改变可听见的流体泄漏位置声音，临床医生可以通过对悬垂布施加力来检测在悬垂状态下的流体泄漏的位置。 施加到覆盖物的力可以是临时医师将手指压在悬垂物的边缘上。

Abstract: A suturing apparatus comprises a pair of jaws. A bendable needle housed in one of the jaws is adapted to carry a suture. An optional suture receiver may be disposed adjacent to the opposite jaw. A transition block curves the needle and directs it in a direction generally unparallel to an axis of the carrying jaw. The needle may also be configured to retrieve a suture. A retaining mechanism holds a suture in place to be engaged by the needle. The jaw housing the needle may include a lateral opening through which the suture may be inserted. The needle may also include a lateral notch which may be aligned with lateral opening to receive the suture. An actuator coupled to the needle enables the user to move the needle proximally to align the notch with the lateral slot.

Abstract translation: 缝合装置包括一对夹爪。 容纳在其中一个钳口中的可弯曲针适于承载缝线。 可选的缝线接收器可以邻近相对的夹爪设置。 过渡块弯曲针头并将其引导到与承载钳口的轴线大致不平行的方向。 针还可以被配置成检索缝合线。 保持机构将缝合线保持在适当位置以与针接合。 容纳针的钳口可以包括侧缝，缝合线可通过该侧面插入。 针还可以包括可以与侧向开口对准以接收缝线的侧向凹口。 耦合到针的致动器使得使用者能够将针向近侧移动以将凹口与侧向槽对准。
