A method comprising obtaining a bodily fluid from a subject; contacting the bodily fluid with an adsorbent material comprising a synthetic carbon particle (SCP) to produce a first filtrate having a level of disease mediators (y); contacting the first filtrate with an adsorbent material comprising the SCP and an anion exchange resin where the ratio of SCP to anion exchange resin is from about 0.1:100 to 100:0.1 to produce a second filtrate; contacting the second filtrate with an adsorbent material comprising the SCP and a cation exchange resin where the ratio of SCP to cation exchange resin is from about 1:100 to produce a third filtrate; and administering the third filtrate to the subject.

Disclosed are apparatus and methods for blood and other biological fluid purification using a membrane with cell containing vascular channel systems and filtration channel systems. Also disclosed are methods of making the apparatus as well as methods of making membranes.

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.

A method for controlling gas composition in a surgical cavity during an endoscopic surgical procedure includes monitoring for a plurality of gas species in a gas flow from a surgical cavity of a patient. The method includes measuring the plurality of gas species in the gas flow from the surgical cavity and determining if the gas species measured in the gas flow from the surgical cavity are each present and/or within a respective desired range. The method includes adding gas into the surgical cavity if one or more gas species in the plurality of gas species is outside of the respective desired range so as to bring a composition of gas species in the surgical cavity within the respective desired range.

Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.

Disclosed is a method for treating a renal condition by loco-regional perfusion of one or both of a patient's kidneys (1810). A closed circuit may be formed with a perfusion catheter (1822) positioned in the renal artery of the kidney, a recovery catheter (1824) positioned in the renal vein of the kidney, and an external membrane oxygenator (1820) disposed therebetween. A perfusate containing, for example, a drug may be circulated through the closed circuit while isolating the closed circuit from the patient's systemic circulation.

A blood reinfusion system for processing autologous blood for reinfusion into a patient. The system includes a suction container adapted to receive a mixture of autologous blood and impurities and extract the impurities from the mixture, a blood filter assembly adapted to further extract the impurities from the mixture, whereby whole purified autologous blood is obtained, and a blood transfer bag adapted to receive the whole purified autologous blood from the blood filter assembly.

A new preparation for regenerating tissues or healing wounds, which can be administered to a patient, which comprises serum and globin being insoluble at physiological pH, said preparation being obtained by adding said serum to said globin being insoluble at physiological pH.

The invention relates to a blood line (108) comprising an infusion site (145) intended to inject into the line a solution comprising: a first main channel (200) having a first passage section, a second main channel (220) having a second passage section, means for the formation (210) of a turbulence area located downstream from the first main channel, located upstream from the second main channel, these formation means comprising a first fluid passage means (224) defining a reduction (225) in the passage section and whose smallest passage section is smaller than the first passage section and smaller than the second fluid passage section, a secondary channel (230) comprising an inlet (231) for letting in the solution and an outlet (232) in fluid communication with the first main channel or the means for the formation of a turbulence area or the second main channel.
