A flow sensor sub-assembly includes a flow tube having a lumen, an outside diameter, a first end, and a second end. An inlet fitting includes a conical orifice sized for insertion in either end of the flow tube, such that an internal passage of the inlet fitting is coaxial and concentric with the lumen and the end of the flow tube abuts a shoulder. An outlet fitting includes a conical orifice sized for insertion in either end of the flow tube, such that an internal passage of the inlet fitting is coaxial and concentric with the lumen and the end of the flow tube abuts a shoulder. A first piezo element integrated with the inlet fitting is arranged at an upstream position of the flow tube assembly and a second piezo element integrated with the outlet fitting is arranged at a downstream position of the flow tube assembly.

An anesthetic tank includes an insertion mouth for inserting an injection adapter of an anesthetic container, and a storage portion communicating with the insertion mouth. A volatile anesthetic inside of the anesthetic container is injected into the storage portion. An identifying member is arranged on the outside of the insertion mouth and is rotatable around the center axis of the insertion mouth. The identifying member has key groove formed in the internal surface of an insertion hole for inserting the injection adapter. The key groove are used for identifying the type of the volatile anesthetic in collaboration with keys formed in the injection adapter. A cover member has an opening formed in the position facing the insertion mouth and the insertion hole and presses the peripheral part of the identifying member.

An interlock coupling adapter for delivering medical fluids to a patient, for example, with enteral feed set devices is provided herein. The interlock coupling adapter increases patient comfort and ensures a secure connection between a button/button base and a food source or medical fluid source. The interlock coupling adapter has an interlock inset within an opening of a button base. The interlock has a recess in which locking protrusions of an adapter may fit within. In this way, the adapter may freely rotate about the interlock. The adapter may be connected or disconnected by depressing flexible arms hinged to the adapter.

An assembly for identifying a power injectable vascular access port, including a vascular access port and an identification feature. The port is structured for power injection and includes a housing and a septum together defining a reservoir. A radiographic feature incorporated into the port is perceivable via x-ray following subcutaneous implantation, the radiographic feature identifying the port as suitable for flowing fluid at a fluid flow rate of at least 1 mL/sec therethrough. A structural feature of the port is perceivable via palpation following subcutaneous implantation, the structural feature identifying the port as suitable for accommodating a pressure within the reservoir of at least 35 psi. The identification feature is separated from the port and confirms that the port is both suitable for flowing fluid at a rate of at least 1 mL/sec therethrough and suitable for accommodating a pressure within the reservoir of at least 35 psi.

Method and system for treating a patient using a compressible, pressure-attenuating device. According to one embodiment, the system is used to treat urinary tract disorders and comprises an access device, a delivery device, a pressure-attenuating device, and a removal device. The access device may be used to create a passageway to an anatomical structure, such as the patient's bladder. The delivery device may be inserted through the passageway created by the access device and may be used to deliver the pressure-attenuating device to the anatomical structure. The removal device may be inserted through the passageway created by the access device and may be used to view the bladder and/or to capture, to deflate and to remove the pressure-attenuating device.

A sealing cap with adjustable aperture and an endoscope mask, with the key technical solution being: the endoscope mask includes a mask body and a sealing cap with adjustable aperture; the sealing cap with adjustable aperture comprises: a fixing seat; a cover body, which is detachably mounted on the fixing seat; a sealing component, used to adapt to endoscopes of different specifications; one end of the sealing component is set on the cover body, and the other end of the sealing component is connected to the fixing seat. The invention has the advantage of allowing the mask to adapt to endoscopes of different specifications to improve work efficiency.

A needleless connector including a valve stem operatively secured with a valve body by a vale cap, the valve body including a passageway, the valve stem including a lumen, such that being accessed by an access device, fluid flows through the lumen and fluid passageway and a tubular segment composed of copper positioned with the fluid flow.

A vascular access system includes a catheter assembly having a catheter and a near patient access port. A sensor probe delivery device is coupled to the near patient access port, with the delivery device including a sensing probe assembly having a probe member including one or more sensors and an electrical connector positioned proximally from the probe member. A housing of the delivery device movably receives the sensing probe assembly and includes a detachable portion separable from a remainder of the housing. A lock couples the housing to the near patient access port, and an advancement member may move relative to the housing to move the sensing probe assembly between a first position and a second position, with a distal end of the probe member disposed into or out past the catheter when in the second position to enable measuring of one or more blood-related parameters.

A power-injectable access port suitable for providing subcutaneous access to a patient and suitable for power injection. The access port includes a septum, a housing, and a reservoir defined by the septum and the housing. The septum may include a material that seals passages formed by puncturing the septum with a hollow slender element or another suitable access mechanism, and a radiopaque material forming a selected pattern when an x-ray is taken through the septum for identifying the power-injectable access port as being suitable for power injection. The housing and the septum may be structured for accommodating a pressure developed within the reservoir of at least 35 psi. The power-injectable access port may be designed to accommodate a flow rate of at least 1 milliliter per second of a fluid.
