Appl. No.:

16/744600

International Classification:

A61B 18/14

Abstract:

A surgical instrument includes an outer tube configured to be gripped by a user, and a needle slidably disposed within the outer tube. The needle includes a needle lumen, a distal needle tip configured to pierce tissue, and an electrode disposed at the distal needle tip. The needle lumen opens to the distal needle tip such that the distal needle tip is configured to deliver fluid from the needle lumen to tissue. The electrode is operable to deliver RF energy to tissue for ablating the tissue. The needle is translatable relative to the outer tube between a proximal retracted position in which the distal needle tip is housed coaxially within the outer tube, and a distal extended position in which the distal needle tip is exposed from the outer tube and configured to pierce tissue.

International Classification:

A61M 29/00
A61M 25/06

Abstract:

An apparatus may be used with an elongate member that includes an engagement member, a hollow shaft, a compression member, a compression element, and a resilient gripping member. The hollow shaft extends from the engagement member along a longitudinal axis. The compression member is slidably disposed over the hollow shaft. The hollow shaft is disposed over the resilient gripping member and supports the compression element. The compression member has a conical inner surface including a detent feature. The conical inner surface is configured to urge the compression element radially inwards as the collar advances from the unlocked position toward the locked position where the detent feature retains the compression element. The compression element deforms the resilient gripping member radially inwards to grip the elongate member and prevents translation of the elongate member. When unlocked, the resilient gripping member moves radially away from the elongate member allowing translation.
