SUCTION BOTTLE FOR THROMBUS ASPIRATOR AND THROMBUS ASPIRATOR
An objective of the present invention is to a suction bottle or a thrombus aspirator having a novel structure capable of solving at least one of the problems inherent in conventional suction bottles such as allowing a practitioner to quickly and easily confirm the presence of a thrombus in the suctioned blood, being able to easily separate the suctioned blood and thrombus, and being able to make the bottle compact to facilitate handling. The suction bottle (10) for a thrombus aspirator is equipped with a thrombus trapping member (82) that spreads so as to separate the inside of the bottle into an upper region (78) and a lower region (80). The thrombus trapping member (82) is provided with a plurality of through-holes (88) that cause blood guided to the upper surface to flow down from the upper region (78) to the lower region (80).
FAT SCREENING DEVICE
A fat screening device includes a cylinder, and a sieve basket. The cylinder includes a feed inlet, an air outlet, a bottom water outlet, and an accommodating space. The accommodating space is in communication with the feed inlet, the air outlet, and the bottom water outlet. The feed inlet is configured to receive a mixture, the bottom water outlet is disposed at a bottom of the cylinder, the accommodating space is configured to accommodate water and fat resulting from stratification of the mixture, and the bottom water outlet is configured to discharge the water. The sieve basket covers the feed inlet and is arranged separately from the air outlet. The sieve basket is configured to screen the mixture to discharge the water and the fat into the accommodating space.
Surgical drape
A surgical drape adapted to overlay a patient including an opaque sheet having superior region extending to a cephalad end with a fenestration configured to surround a surgical region of the patient, and an inferior region extending from the inferior aspect of the fenestration to a caudal end and having a transparent sheet joined to the patient facing side of the opaque sheet proximate the inferior aspect of the fenestration between opposite opaque sheet first and second edges allowing the inferior portion of the opaque sheet drawn away from the transparent sheet to allow a surgeon visual access to the patient through the transparent sheet.
Bone dust collection cap and plunger assembly
A surgical collection assembly for filtering material from liquid obtained during surgery has a distal plunger plate that is used to compress collected material that is filtered from liquid and entrained materials gathered during surgery. The distal plunger plate needs to be maintained above the collection jar inlet during collection of the liquid and entrained material. This disclosure teaches several ways to reversibly retain the distal plunger plate above the collection jar inlet. Also taught is a drape clamp that can affix the assembly and related tubing to a drape.
Microdermabrasion System with Combination Skin Therapies
A microdermabrasion system offers a combination of other skin therapies in conjunction with microdermabrasion. In an implementation, the system applies light therapy, photodynamic therapy, radio frequency and microwave energy therapy, massage therapy, or combinations of these while exfoliating the skin.
BODILY WASTE AND FLUID COLLECTION WITH SACRAL PAD
Examples relate to apparatuses, devices, systems, and methods for collecting bodily waste and bodily fluid using a sacral pad as an attachment point. The bodily waste collection apparatus includes a sacral pad and a bodily waste collection device attached to a lower portion of the sacral pad. The bodily waste collection device includes a fluid impermeable casing defining an interior region therein, a permeable material at least partially disposed in the interior region, and a conduit disposed within the bodily waste collection device. The sacral pad secures to the wearer and the bodily waste collection devices is at least partially maintained in a position to receive bodily waste from a wearer by the sacral pad.
Nasal aspirator suction bin assembly
A nasal aspirator suction bin assembly comprises a suction bin base, which has a first connecting end connected with a host and a second connecting end connected with a suction bin cover; after the suction bin base is connected with the suction bin cover, a cavity is formed therein; the middle of the suction bin base is provided with an outlet tube, which runs through the suction bin base and extends into the cavity; the upper end of the suction bin cover is provided with a suction tube, which runs through the suction bin cover and extends into the cavity; a bracket is arranged in the cavity, and the bracket comprises a bracket tube which can be inserted on the outlet tube and a baffle arranged at the other free end of the bracket tube, and at least one air hole is arranged on the bracket tube to keep the suction tube and the outlet tube in communication all the time; the cavity is used to store the inhaled nasal fluid. Because of the umbrella-shaped bracket, the nasal fluid cannot touch the position of the air hole during normal use and small-angle inclined use, so the nasal fluid cannot enter the host and cause pollution.
Systems, devices and methods for draining and analyzing bodily fluids
Systems, devices and methods for draining and analyzing bodily fluids are disclosed in which a drainage assembly is configured to prevent negative pressure build-up. The drainage assembly generally includes a catheter which may include a drainage lumen, a reservoir, a venting mechanism in fluid communication with the drainage lumen and a positive pressure lumen, and a controller. The venting mechanism may further include a valve which is configured to maintain a closed position, as well as a vent in fluid communication with the valve, where the venting mechanism is configured to inhibit wetting of the vent from fluid within the drainage lumen.
PORTABLE WOUND THERAPY SYSTEM
A portable system for subatmospheric pressure therapy in connection with healing a surgical wound, includes a wound dressing dimensioned for positioning relative to a wound bed of a subject, a portable subatmospheric pressure mechanism dimensioned to be carried or worn by the subject and a container for collecting exudates from the wound bed removed under the subatmospheric pressure supplied by the subatmospheric pressure mechanism. The portable subatmospheric pressure mechanism includes a housing, a subatmospheric pressure source disposed within the housing and in fluid communication with the wound dressing to supply subatmospheric pressure to the wound dressing and a power source mounted to or within the housing for supplying power to actuate the subatmospheric pressure source.
Fluid volume measurement using canister resonance for reduced pressure therapy systems
A wound fluid collection system includes a canister adapted to collect bodily fluids from a tissue site. The canister includes an acoustic transducer adapted and positioned to insonify a cavity within the canister, the cavity being defined by a wall of the canister and the bodily fluids collected within the canister. A resonant frequency may be calculated based on a resulting received signal from the insonification. The resonant frequency may indicate a volume of the cavity within the canister. The difference between a known volume of the canister and the calculated volume of the cavity provides the volume of bodily fluid collected in the canister.
