SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING ENDOSCOPIC PROCEDURES
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 19005848 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING ENDOSCOPIC PROCEDURES
Original Abstract Submitted
According to exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, devices, systems, and methods for endoscopic procedures may include an end effector of a grasping system having a first arm and a second arm. The first and second arms may extend from a common proximal joint. The first and second arms may be formed of a self-expanding material and may have a spring force to set the arms in an unconstrained open position. The first and second arms may have an arc shape such that a distal tip of each first and second arm are configured to close as the first and second arms are actuated to a constrained closed position. A catheter may include a locating element at a distal end of a flexible tube. The locating element may be configured for locating the grasping system.
