Expandable Tissue Retraction Devices

US Patent:
2013018, Jul 18, 2013
Filed:
Jan 8, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/736904
Inventors:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA, US
Jonathan Coe - Menlo Park CA, US
Swaminadhan Gnanashanmugam - San Francisco CA, US
Jeremy Koehler - East Palo Alto CA, US
Mark Welton - Stanford CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/02
US Classification:
600210
Abstract:
A surgical access device facilitates access to a surgical site within a patient's body through an incision in the body. Surgical access devices can have a first retention member and a second retention member with a pliable membrane that extends between the first retention member and the second retention member. A retention member can include at least three linkages pivotably coupled to one another such that expanding the retention member causes at least some of the linkages to pivot relative to one another. The pliable membrane can be configured to expand the incision to facilitate access to the surgical site.

Systems For The Prevention Of Surgical Site Infections

US Patent:
2013017, Jul 11, 2013
Filed:
Jan 8, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/736888
Inventors:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA, US
Jonathan Coe - Menlo Park CA, US
Swaminadhan Gnanashanmugam - San Francisco CA, US
Jeremy Koehler - East Palo Alto CA, US
Mark Welton - Stanford CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/02
US Classification:
600205
Abstract:
A surgical access system facilitates access to a surgical site within a patient's body through an incision in the body. Surgical access systems can have at least one retention member and a fluid transportation member configured to deliver fluid to a surgical site or to remove fluid from a surgical site. In some embodiments, a surgical access device irrigates a surgical site to reduce surgical site infections and removes fluid from the surgical site to increase a physician's visibility into the surgical site.

Methods For The Prevention Of Surgical Site Infections

US Patent:
2013017, Jul 11, 2013
Filed:
Jan 8, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/736875
Inventors:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA, US
Jonathan Coe - Menlo Park CA, US
Swaminadhan Gnanashanmugam - San Francisco CA, US
Jeremy Koehler - East Palo Alto CA, US
Mark Welton - Stanford CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/02
US Classification:
600205
Abstract:
Several methods to reduce surgical site infections include inserting a surgical access device into an incision, retracting tissue, and introducing fluid into the surgical access device such that the fluid exits the surgical access device and irrigates a surgical site. Other methods do not include introducing fluid into a surgical access device but include suctioning a fluid into the surgical access device and removing the fluid from the body.
