    Abstract: Methods and systems for bidirectional priming of a blood circuit while a catheter is connected to the circuit that delivers gas-enriched blood to a patient. The system primes the circuit while the catheter is connected to the circuit by controlling a first flow control mechanism to close to prevent blood flow through the draw line to a catheter and causes a pump to circulate blood in a first direction through a mixing chamber and/or through a bubble trap that removes air bubbles from the circuit. The system controls a second flow control mechanism to close to prevent blood flow in a return line to the catheter while causing the first flow control mechanism to open after the second flow control mechanism is closed and while causing the pump to circulate the blood in a second, opposite direction through the mixing chamber that removes air bubbles from the circuit.

    Abstract: A chest compression device includes a piston to apply compression to the sternum and incorporates leaf springs simultaneously driven by the piston to apply lateral compression to the thorax during chest compressions. A motor in the chest compression device provides motive power to cyclically extend and contract the piston to provide therapeutic chest compressions. One end of each leaf spring is operably connected to the piston and the other end of each leaf spring is secured to the backboard/base or to a support leg of the chest compression device such that during extension of the piston, each leaf spring is compressed against the device base or leg which causes the springs to flex and provide lateral compression of the patient's thorax in addition to the sternal compression of the piston.

    Abstract: A mechanical chest compression device is secured to a gurney, transport stretcher or ambulance cot while engaging a patient's thorax to provide mechanical CPR during transport. The mechanical chest compression device compresses the patient's thorax against the gurney deck. The mechanical chest compression device may engage the side rails on the gurney, the gurney deck or any suitable structural elements of the gurney.

    Abstract: A system delivers gas-enriched blood or liquid within the vasculature of a patient while partially obstructing a flow of blood within the vasculature of the patient. The system may include a first catheter configured for inserting into a vasculature of a patient to deliver gas-enriched blood or liquid to a region of the vasculature of the patient. The system may include a second catheter configured for inserting into the vasculature of the patient. The second catheter includes lumens and an occlusion structure configured to partially obstruct a flow of blood within the vasculature of the patient while allowing the first catheter to deliver the gas-enriched blood or liquid to the region of the vasculature, and to divert the blood flow to the region where the gas-enriched blood or liquid is delivered.

    Abstract: An intravascular temperature management catheter includes a shaft through which working fluid can circulate to and from a proximal location on the shaft. The catheter extends from a connector hub. At least one heat exchange member is supported by a distal part of the shaft or other part of the catheter to receive circulating working fluid from the proximal location. A temperature sensor is supported on the catheter for generating a temperature signal representative of blood temperature to a control system. The temperature sensor includes first and second conductive leads having respective first and second distal segments on or in the catheter shaft. The first and second distal segments are arranged to be in thermal contact with blood flowing past the catheter when the catheter is disposed in a blood vessel of a patient. Also, the temperature sensor includes a joining body connected to proximal segments of the first and second leads. The joining body may be supported in the hub or in another location proximal to the first and second conductive leads.
