摘要:
A cassette for use in a system for adjusting the temperature of a patient. The cassette comprises a heat exchanger, the heat exchanger having a primary fluid circuit side and a secondary fluid circuit side. The primary fluid circuit side includes releasable couplers for releasably coupling to a primary fluid circuit. The secondary fluid circuit side is in fluid communication with a heat exchange catheter (263) insertable within a patient, a secondary fluid circuit (255), and a secondary fluid circuit pump (261) for flowing a heat exchange fluid through the secondary fluid circuit to the heat exchange catheter (263) and back through the secondary fluid circuit to the secondary fluid circuit pump (261). The releasable couplers (231,233) have check valves disposed therein to fluidly seal the primary fluid circuit side when the primary fluid circuit side is not connected to the primary fluid circuit to minimize primary fluid loss from the primary fluid circuit side of the heat exchanger
摘要:
A system includes a heat exchange catheter line assembly configured to convey working fluid circulating to and from at least one heat exchange element on an intravascular heat exchange catheter. The system also includes a heat exchange system that itself includes a processor and is configured for fluidly communicating with the heat exchange catheter line assembly to exchange heat with the working fluid. A near field communication (NFC) member associated with the heat exchange system and an NFC element associated with the heat exchange catheter line assembly are also included. The NFC member is configured to provide the processor with a signal representative of whether the NFC member detects the NFC element.

Devices and methods for performing CPR on a patient within an imaging field of an imaging device. The device has a compression belt and a belt tensioning mechanism, both located on or in the device such that the head, neck, thorax and abdomen of the patient may be place within the imaging field with the compression belt installed about the patient and the belt tensioning mechanism will be located outside of the imaging field.
摘要:
A carrier, such as a battery, that queries a memory of a charger or charging circuit, or the memory of equipment or discharging circuit powered by the battery, to determine the relative date or version of data, operating parameters and/or software on both the battery and the equipment, and either provides updated data, operating parameters and/or software to the equipment, or retrieves later dated data, operating parameters and/or software from the equipment to update the memory of the battery and/or further distribute the updated data, operating parameters and/or software to other batteries or equipment.

A rechargeable power cell having no voltage across its positive and negative power terminals unless the power cell is inserted into a device configured to accept the power cell is described. The power cell includes a battery management processor and battery insertion detection circuitry that cooperate to determine when the power cell is inserted into the device and then drive an electronic switch to provide for conduction of current from the power cell to the positive terminal of the cell.
摘要:
A compression belt cartridge (5) has a double-oar shaped belt (3) and a cover plate (44) through which the belt (3) is threaded. The cover plate (44) is provided with hooks (51, 52, 53,54) and snap latches (47, 48, 49, 50) that fit into a belt drive platform (4). The cover plate (44) is sized and dimensioned to fit within only selected platforms. The belt (3) attaches to the means for tightening (42) the belt (3) via a spline (66) attached to the belt (3). The means for tightening (42) a belt (3) then repetitively tightens the belt (3), thereby accomplishing chest compressions.
