Pinching Device for Flexible Tubing

The pinch clamp has a ratchet mechanism for selectively securing two jaw assemblies of the pinch clamp together. The ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet with a plurality of notches fixedly mounted on an end of one jaw assembly and a pawl member integrally mounted on an end of the other jaw assembly for selectively engaging in one of the notches of the ratchet. A finger release portion extends integrally from the pawl member for moving the pawl member from engagement with the ratchet.

Pinch Clamp for Flexible Tubing

The pinch clamp has a locking assembly that includes two members for securing the jaw assemblies of the pinch clamp in place. The two members are a stud and a nut threaded on the stud. The stud has a spherical base pivotally mounted on an end of one jaw assembly and an arcuate boss projecting from the spherical base into mating sliding relation with the arcuate recess of the jaw assembly to limit pivoting of the base to a single plane. A threaded stern extends from the spherical base and is disposed in a bifurcation of the jaw assembly.

Flexible tubing occlusion assembly

An occlusion assembly for compressing a pair of collapsible tubes comprises a frame comprising a tubing guide configured for positioning the collapsible tube. The occlusion assembly also comprises a tubing occluder mounted to the frame with an occluding member constructed and positioned to controllably occlude or release occlusion of the collapsible tube. A door mounted to the frame is positioned to cover at least a portion of the collapsible tube and tubing occluder when closed and provide user access when open. The assembly includes a retainer mechanism engaged by the door when the door is closed to permit operation of the tubing occluder when the door is closed and retain the tubing occluder in a non-occluding configuration when the door is opened.

Dressing-Integrated Tubing Occlusion
20230293814 · 2023-09-21 ·

Provided herein is an intravascular catheter assembly, including a catheter adapter having a distal end, a proximal end, a lumen arranged between and in fluid communication with the distal end and the proximal end, a catheter arranged at the distal end of the catheter adapter and in fluid communication with the lumen, and a side port in fluid communication with the lumen. The assembly further includes a fluid conduit having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end of the fluid conduit coupled to the side port, a connector arranged at the proximal end of the fluid conduit, and an occlusion device configured to stop flow through the fluid conduit.

Connector with valve for negative pressure wound therapy system

A negative pressure wound therapy device that includes a first tubing connectable in flow communication with a source of negative pressure configured for application of negative pressure to a wound site, a second tubing in flow communication with the wound site, and a valve.

Catheter Assembly Including Monitoring Capabilities

A catheter assembly or other elongate tubular device for use in establishing vascular or other access within the body of a patient is disclosed. The catheter assembly is equipped with one or more sensors that enable monitoring of one or more physiological aspects of the patient or physical aspect of the catheter assembly itself when the catheter assembly is disposed within the patient. Such aspects include central venous pressure, body temperature, ECG heart signals, oxygen levels, ultrasound data, glucose, etc. The catheter assembly includes the ability to wirelessly transmit or otherwise forward data relating to the detected physiological parameters to another location, such as a patient electronic medical record, smartphone or other mobile device, nurse station, etc. Catheter assemblies configured to detect the frequency of catheter flushing, flushing quality, etc., are also disclosed.

Assemblies and methods for infusion pump system administration sets

An assembly is configured to position a peristaltic tube with respect to a linear peristaltic pump drive of an infusion pump. The assembly can include a peristaltic tube, first and second tube couplers, a frame, first and second securement plates, a free-flow prevention arm, and a biasing mechanism. The frame can include a snap-fit tab configured to releasably secure the assembly to an assembly receptacle of the infusion pump. The free-flow prevention arm can be selectively movable between a free-flow preventing position and a free-flow allowing position. A latching mechanism can be ergonomically manipulable to latch the free-flow prevention arm in a free-flow allowing position, and to unlatch the free-flow prevention arm such that the biasing mechanism is able to bias the free-flow prevention arm to the free-flow preventing position.

Fluid transfer connectors

A fluid transfer connector comprises a medical standard connector part comprising a fluid transfer port, a connector part for flexible tubing, the connector part arranged to form a fluid connection with the fluid transfer port such that, in use, a fluid flow can pass between flexible tubing connected to the connector part and the fluid transfer port. The connector further comprises a moveable member arranged to interrupt the fluid flow in the flexible tubing when moved from a first position to a second position. The moveable member is further arranged to release a connection, in use, between the medical standard connector part and a corresponding adaptor part such as a female hub).

KEEP VEIN OPEN INFUSION FLOW CONTROL DEVICE
20210338930 · 2021-11-04 ·

Keep vein open (KVO) infusion flow control devices are provided. The KVO infusion flow control device couples to intravenous (IV) tubing and includes a flow controller that provides a full open fluid flow rate through an outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in an open position, and a KVO fluid flow rate through the outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in a KVO position. Visual indicators are disposed on the KVO infusion flow control device.
