SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL DEVICE CONTROL
Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.
DEVICE FOR TREATING FAT CELLS TAKEN FROM A PATIENT AND INTENDED FOR A TRANSPLANT
The present invention relates to a device and a method for FIG. 2 treating fat cells taken from a patient and intended for a transplant. More specifically, it relates to a device and a method by suctioning which makes it possible to separate the viable fat cells from the residues and elements which are not transplantable. The device is a device for treating adipose tissues (G) connected to a suctioning means (M), consisting of a sealed treatment chamber (A) comprising a means for connection (17) to said suctioning means (M), a means for inlet (13) of said adipose tissues before treatment, a filtration means (3) and at least one means for outlet (20) of said adipose tissues (G) after treatment, said filtration means (3) comprising a conically shaped external wall (3 1, 3) comprising a narrow base (55) attached to an impeller (25) and an internal sieving means (30) connected to the output means (20), said impeller (25) being subjected to the air pressure reduction created by the suctioning means (M) and constituting a rotary mechanical actuating means for actuating said filtration means (3).
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RESIZING ADIPOSE TISSUE FOR IMPLANTATION
A deagglomerator for use in resizing masses of cells is disclosed. The deagglomerator may include a plurality of apertures defined by a plurality of front and back edges. The masses of cells may be passed through the plurality of apertures from the front to the back, and from the back to the front, repeatedly. The deagglomerator may also include a plurality of blades that may aid in the deagglomeration of the cell masses. The deagglomerator may be configured between two syringes so that the tissue may be passed back and forth from the first syringe through the device to the second syringe, and then back again from the second syringe through the device and to the first syringe. In this way, the masses of cells may be properly deagglomerated.
A SYSTEM FOR THE HARVEST AND TRANSFER FOR HIGH VOLUME FAT GRAFTING USING A CENTRIFUGAL PUMP
A closed loop system and methods for pumping harvested fat from a patient donor site to a patient grafting site using a centrifugal pump.
Device for harvesting, processing and transferring adipose tissue
The present disclosure provides devices and methods for harvesting and processing tissue from patients for grafting. The devices can include a tissue collection chamber for ascetically collecting, processing, and/or re-implanting adipose tissue.
TISSUE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING ADIPOSE TISSUE
A portable apparatus useful for collection and processing of human biological material, such as adipose or cancellous bone material, to prepare a concentrated product (e.g., stromal vascular fraction). The apparatus has a container with a containment volume with a tissue retention volume and a filtrate volume separated by a filter and with a pellet well for collecting concentrate product in the form of a pellet phase from centrifuge processing. The pellet well is accessible only from above when the apparatus is in an access orientation. Collected pellet phase material may be removed from the pellet well by direct aspiration, without suspending the material in a suspension liquid within the container. Access ports may be configured for access only from above the container. The apparatus may include a tissue collector disposed in the disuse retention volume to engage and collect collagen or other stringy tissue. A method of processing adipose tissue to concentrate leuko stromal vascular cells includes multi-step processing using a portable container.
Tissue processing apparatus and method for processing adipose tissue
Harvested adipose tissue is processed in a single-use portable processing container to prepare a centrifuges pellet phase of stromal vascular fraction concentrate, which is selectively removed and disposed in a syringe dispersed in a dispersion medium to prepare an osteoarthritis treatment product.
Device and method for preparing tissue, particularly adipose tissue
A device and a method for preparing adipose tissue for transplantation from lobular fat extracted, for instance by liposuction, the fat including a fluid component that have an oily component, a blood component and/or sterile solutions, and a solid component including cell fragments, cells and one or more cell macroagglomerates of heterogeneous size, wherein the device includes at least one washing and separating container having a washing chamber, the container has an inlet and an outlet for the liposuctioned material to enter the washing chamber through the inlet and for at least part of the material to exit the washing chamber through the outlet, the washing chamber including stirring means for forming an emulsion of fluid components.
Systems and methods for medical device control
Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HARVESTING AUTOLOGOUS ADIPOSE TISSUE
A triple-chambered container includes: a main container body with a first chamber which has an opening at its distal end; a main barrel formed and movable longitudinally within the first chamber, the main barrel defining therein a second chamber for receiving fluids, the main barrel further having an apertured stopper at its distal end; a second barrel formed within the main barrel, the second barrel defining a third chamber for receiving fluids, the second barrel being movable longitudinally within and with respect to the main barrel, the second barrel having a distal end which is engageable and disengageable with the apertured stopper; a shaft adapted to fit within the second barrel, the shaft being movable longitudinally within and with respect to the second barrel, the shaft having a distal end which is engageable and disengageable with an aperture in the second barrel; a device for controlling engaging and disengaging of the distal end of the shaft with the aperture of the second barrel. The first chamber, the second chamber and the third chamber may be selectively moved to receive and discharge fluids with respect to one another.
