FLEXIBLE DEVICE FOR INTRODUCING A MEDICAL APPARATUS INTO A BODY
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An introducing device for introducing a medical device into a body, comprising:
- a distal region which has a tip region for generating an opening in skin; and
,a segment region having at least two sections, the at least two sections are essentially rigidly connected to at least one another and to the distal region in a rigid state for introducing the device and the at least two sections are movable relative to one another in a flexible state after the device has been introduced.

Abstract
An introducing device for introduction of a medical device into a body is described which has a distal region with a tip region for generating an opening in the skin, and a segment region which comprises at least two sections which, in a rigid state, are essentially rigidly connected at least to one another and to the distal region and which are movable relative to one another in a flexible state. Furthermore, a system is described in which a sensor is integrated into the device for introduction into a body.

19. An introducing device for introducing a medical device into a body, comprising:
-
a distal region which has a tip region for generating an opening in the skin; means for rigid state having a segment region having at least two sections, and the at least two sections are essentially rigidly connected to at least one another and to the distal region in for introducing a medical device; and
,means for flexible state wherein the at least two sections are movable relative to one another after the medical device has been introduced.

20. A method for introducing a medical device into a body, comprising:
-
providing a distal region which has a tip region for generating an opening in the skin; connecting rigidly at least two sections in a segment region, and the at least two sections are essentially rigidly connected to at least one another and to the distal region for introducing a medical device into a body; and
,connecting flexibly the at least two sections in the segment region, and the at least two sections are movable relative to one another in a flexible state after the medical device has been introduced into the body.
