An urethral antimicrobial delivery device (1) comprising; a deformable reservoir (101) in fluid connection with an elongate member (102), the elongate member comprising a lumen, the elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end, the elongate member having a plurality of pores (103) defined therein, said pores being distributed along a length of said elongate member, the elongate member being dimensioned for insertion through an external urethral orifice of a female subject, whereby the elongate member is insertable into a distal urethral cavity for delivery of an antimicrobial in said distal urethral cavity, and wherein the device comprises a collar (105) to prevent said elongate member entering a proximal urethral cavity.

A system for managing fluid levels in phacoemulsification surgery is disclosed. The system comprises a surgical console having at least one system bus communicatively connected to at least one computing processor capable of accessing at least one computing memory associated with the at least one computing processor, and at least one sensor associated with the surgical console for providing at least one signal indicative of the presence of liquid, wherein the at least one sensor is in communication with at least one level sensing device of a cassette associated with the surgical console.

A system for a surgical system is disclosed, comprising system for distributing fluid in a surgical cassette, comprising at least one at least partially deformable bladder at least partially disposed on at least one rigid surface, wherein the bladder forms a portion of a channel, at least a first and second port in fluid communication with the channel, wherein the channel comprises at least two portions having a substantially uniform first dimension separated by a second portion have a second dimension, and wherein at least two pump head rollers are engaged with the bladder.

A system for distributing fluid during a surgical procedure is disclosed, comprising a plurality of valves at least partially enclosed in a surgical cassette, at least one vacuum source fluidly connected to at least one of the plurality of valves, and at least one fluid source fluidly connected to at least one of the plurality of valves, wherein each valve is responsive to at least one received signal indicative of at least one parameter associated with one of fluid pressure and fluid volume.

The subject invention provides novel and highly effective methods and devices for convenient and effective wound irrigation.

An irrigation system for anal or stomal irrigation includes a reservoir, a tubing system providing a first flow path between the reservoir and a catheter, and a pressure channel separate from the first flow path. A pump is operable to move the liquid through the first flow path from the reservoir and through the catheter. A control system is connected to the tubing system. A connector couples the tubing system to the catheter, where the connector includes a chamber coupling the pressure channel to the first flow path, with a membrane located in the chamber between the first flow path and the pressure channel. A pressure sensor communicates with the control system which operates the pump to control the anal or the stomal irrigation with the liquid based on the pressure sensed in the first flow path.

An enema device and a method for using the same are disclosed. The enema device includes a non-plastic container and a liquid delivery tube. The non-plastic container is made of glass, stainless steel, or ceramic. The non-plastic container includes a bottom wall and an annular sidewall extending upwardly from the peripheral of the bottom wall, wherein the bottom wall has a bottom planar surface. The liquid delivery tube is in fluid communication with a containing chamber of the non-plastic container. Therefore, harmful effects to the human body from plasticizer can be prevented.

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.
