Abstract

An assembly of a medical delivery device includes an inner sleeve including a flange at a proximal end. The flange includes one or more through holes. The assembly also includes an outer sleeve movably coupled to the inner sleeve. A distal tip of the outer sleeve includes a plurality of openings for delivering an adhesive to a treatment site. The assembly further includes a cavity formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve and configured to hold the adhesive prior to the delivering. The assembly yet further includes one or more actuators connected to a proximal end of the outer sleeve and extended via the one or more through holes to a handle of the medical delivery device. Actuation of the one or more actuators moves one of the inner sleeve or the outer sleeve relative to the other to cause the delivering of the adhesive.

First claim

We claim:

1 . An assembly of a medical delivery device, the assembly comprising:
an inner sleeve including a flange at a proximal end, the flange including one or more through holes; an outer sleeve movably coupled to the inner sleeve, a distal tip of the outer sleeve including a plurality of openings for delivering an adhesive to a treatment site; a cavity formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve and configured to hold the adhesive prior to the delivering; and one or more actuators connected to a proximal end of the outer sleeve and extended via the one or more through holes to a handle of the medical delivery device, wherein actuation of the one or more actuators moves one of the inner sleeve or the outer sleeve relative to the other to cause the delivering of the adhesive.

2 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the distal tip of the outer sleeve further comprises a plurality of distally extending protrusions positioned between at least some of the plurality of openings.

3 . The assembly of claim 1 , further comprising:
a first gasket positioned at a distal contact point of the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve that extends to the distal tip of the outer sleeve.

4 . The assembly of claim 3 , wherein the first gasket includes a plurality of flaps corresponding to and covering the plurality of openings at the distal tip.

5 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the inner sleeve includes a groove, and the assembly further comprises:
a second gasket positioned at a proximal contact point of the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve within the groove.

6 . The assembly of claim 1 , further comprising:
one or more outer tubes coupled to the flange and enclosing the one or more actuators from a proximal surface of the flange to the handle.

7 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the assembly is a first assembly of a two-part assembly of the medical delivery device for delivering a first component of the adhesive, and wherein the first assembly is connected to a second assembly of the two-part assembly that is for delivering a second component of the adhesive to be mixed with the first component at the treatment site.

8 . The assembly of claim 7 , wherein the first assembly is coupled to a first actuation component of an actuation mechanism disposed on or within the handle, the second assembly is coupled to a second actuation component of the actuation mechanism, and the first actuation component and the second actuation component are independently actuable to cause independent operation of the first assembly and the second assembly.

9 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the inner sleeve is a telescoping sleeve, and wherein the cavity formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve is a first cavity configured to hold a first component of the adhesive.

10 . The assembly of claim 9 , wherein the telescoping sleeve comprises an inner telescoping sleeve, and an outer telescoping sleeve movably coupled to the inner telescoping sleeve, and wherein the assembly further comprises:
a second cavity formed between the inner telescoping sleeve and the outer telescoping sleeve and configured to hold a second component of the adhesive to be mixed with the first component prior to the delivering of the adhesive to the treatment site.

11 . The assembly of claim 10 , wherein the outer telescoping sleeve includes one or more valves to allow for flow of the second component of the adhesive from the second cavity to the first cavity.

12 . The assembly of claim 10 , further comprising:
a first gasket positioned at a distal contact point of the outer telescoping sleeve and the outer sleeve; a second gasket positioned at a proximal contact point of the outer telescoping sleeve and the outer sleeve; a third gasket positioned at a distal contact point of the inner telescoping sleeve and the outer telescoping sleeve; and a fourth gasket positioned at a proximal contact point of the inner telescoping sleeve and the outer telescoping sleeve.

13 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the inner sleeve includes a step configured to receive a distal tip of a medical device to mount the assembly to the medical device.

14 . The assembly of claim 13 , wherein a configuration of the assembly prevents obstruction of components at the distal tip of the medical device when the assembly is mounted to the medical device, the components including at least one of distal openings of one or more working channels, one or more illumination devices, or visualization devices.

15 . The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the proximal end of the outer sleeve includes one or more slots, and wherein the one or more actuators are coupled to the proximal end of the outer sleeve via the one or more slots.

16 . An assembly of a medical delivery device, comprising:
an inner sleeve including a flange at a proximal end, the flange including one or more through holes; an outer sleeve movably coupled to the inner sleeve, a distal tip of the outer sleeve including a plurality of openings for delivering an adhesive to a treatment site; a cavity formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve and configured to hold the adhesive prior to the delivering; a gasket positioned at a distal contact point of the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve that extends to the distal tip of the outer sleeve and includes a plurality of flaps corresponding to and covering the plurality of openings at the distal tip; and one or more actuators connected to a proximal end of the outer sleeve and extended via the one or more through holes to a handle of the medical delivery device, wherein actuation of the one or more actuators moves one of the inner sleeve or the outer sleeve relative to the other to pressurize the adhesive in the cavity causing the plurality of flaps to be forced open and the adhesive to be delivered via the plurality of openings.

17 . The assembly of claim 16 , wherein the distal tip of the outer sleeve further comprises a plurality of distally extending protrusions positioned between at least some of the plurality of openings.

18 . The assembly of claim 16 , further comprising:
one or more outer tubes coupled to the flange and enclosing the one or more actuators from a proximal surface of the flange to the handle.

19 . A medical delivery device, comprising:
a handle including one or more actuation mechanisms; and one or more assemblies mountable to a medical device, each of the one or more assemblies including:
an inner sleeve including a flange at a proximal end, the flange including one or more through holes;
an outer sleeve movably coupled to the inner sleeve, a distal tip of the outer sleeve including a plurality of openings for delivering adhesive to a treatment site;
a cavity formed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve and configured to hold the adhesive prior to the delivering; and
one or more actuators connected to a proximal end of the outer sleeve and extended via the one or more through holes to the handle of the medical delivery device, wherein actuation of the one or more actuators via the one or more actuation mechanisms moves one of the inner sleeve or the outer sleeve relative to the other to cause the delivering of the adhesive.

20 . The medical delivery device of claim 19 , wherein the one or more assemblies include a first assembly for delivering a first component of the adhesive and a second assembly for delivering a second component of the adhesive to be mixed with the first component at the
