Fluid management systems are disclosed that include software-controlled, electro-mechanical devices used in combination with single-use or multi-use tubing sets. Functions of the fluid management systems can include fluid pressurization, fluid warming, fluid deficit monitoring (including flow-based and weight-based), suction, fluid collection, and fluid evacuation (including indirect-to-drain and direct-to-drain options). The systems can be configured based on the surgical environment (e.g., operating room or physician office) as well as other user needs and/or preferences.

An apparatus for cleansing wounds, in which wound exudate is removed from a wound bed and selectively cleansed and returned to the wound. The cleansing means removes materials deleterious to wound healing, and the cleansed fluid, still containing materials that are beneficial in promoting wound healing, is returned to the wound bed. The associated wound dressing and cleansing means are conformable to the wound, and may have irrigant fluid circulated from a reservoir by a device for moving fluid through a flow path which passes through the dressing and a means for fluid cleansing and back to the dressing.

A surgical system includes a replaceable surgical cassette that is configured to be received by a surgical console, the surgical cassette permitting fluid flow through the cassette, the surgical system controlling the flow of fluid through the cassette via one or more flexible valves actuated by one or more actuation plungers located on the surgical console. The one or more flexible valves of the surgical cassette and the one or more actuation plungers of the surgical console include a positioning feature configured to assist with positioning the one or more actuation plungers to apply uniform and symmetric pressure to the one or more valves during actuation.

A surgical assembly for ocular surgery includes a direct measuring device of intraocular pressure, a surgical accessory utilisable in conjunction with a surgical instrument suitable for performing eye surgery, and the surgical accessory being insertable in an ocular cavity through an accessory ocular incision. The direct measuring device of intraocular pressure is coupled to the surgical accessory so as to be insertable in the ocular cavity along with the surgical accessory through the accessory ocular incision.

A method and apparatus for injecting a saline solution into an open cavity of a patient's body, and, alternatively, vacuuming fluids from the open cavity during laparoscopic surgery that provides constant feed and amplified pressure to provide a steady fluid output, in a disposable, single use handheld surgical device.

An infusion pressure control system for ophthalmic surgery includes intraocular pressure detection means, arterial pressure detection means and a control unit operatively connected to the intraocular pressure detection means and the arterial pressure detection means and configured for calculating the mean ocular perfusion pressure value based on intraocular pressure and arterial pressure values provided by the intraocular pressure detection means and by the arterial pressure detection means, and for comparing the calculated mean ocular perfusion pressure value and at least one predetermined threshold value.

A system for measuring an amount of liquid in an elastic bag, where there is formed in the lower area of the elastic bag a liquid opening for retrieving liquid from the elastic bag. The system includes push elements, which abut at opposite walls of the elastic bag and which are spaced apart from one another, a drive unit, which is configured to drive at least one push element, sensors, and a control unit. The sensors are configured to measure a liquid level of the liquid in the elastic bag. The control unit is configured to calculate an amount of liquid in the elastic bag on the basis of the liquid level and the distance between the push elements. The liquid level of the liquid in the elastic bag is changeable by reducing the distance between the push elements by means of the at least one drive unit.
