Systems and methods for detecting fluid leaks using a non-contact sensor

An irradiation device includes a fluid treatment chamber configured to receive a biological fluid container, the fluid treatment chamber having opposing first and second sides, at least one light source disposed adjacent at least one of the first and second sides of the fluid treatment chamber, and an overflow reservoir in fluid communication with the fluid treatment chamber to receive fluid leaking from the biological fluid container. The device also includes a non-contact sensor disposed adjacent the overflow reservoir and configured to generate a signal according to leaked fluid in the overflow reservoir, an indicator, and a controller coupled to the at least one light source, the non-contact sensor and the indicator, the controller configured to activate the indicator upon receipt of the signal from the sensor and to deactivate the at least one light source subsequent to receipt of the signal from the sensor.

Systems and methods for treating biological fluids

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING ONLINE EXTRACORPOREAL PHOTOPHERESIS
20170319775 · 2017-11-09 ·

Systems and methods for performing online extracorporeal photopheresis of mononuclear cells are disclosed. Whole blood is removed from a patient and introduced through a processing set into a separation chamber to separate the desired cell population from the blood. The separated cell population is processed through the set which is associated with a treatment chamber where the cells are treated. Once treated, the cells are returned to the patient. The processing set remains connected to the patient during the entire ECP treatment procedure and provides an online, sterile closed pathway between the separation chamber and the treatment chamber.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERIOR ENERGY-ACTIVATION FROM AN EXTERIOR SOURCE
20170239637 · 2017-08-24 · ·

A method and a system for producing a change in a medium. The method places in a vicinity of the medium at least one energy modulation agent. The method applies an initiation energy to the medium. The initiation energy interacts with the energy modulation agent to directly or indirectly produce the change in the medium. The system includes an initiation energy source configured to apply an initiation energy to the medium to activate the energy modulation agent.
