    摘要: An apparatus for conditioning gas for use in a medical procedure, such as endoscopy, the gas being received into the apparatus from a gas source. The apparatus comprises a housing defining a chamber having an entry port and an exit port. A humidification means comprising at least one water-retainer layer is disposed within the chamber in the path of travel of the gas for humidifying the gas as it passes through the chamber. A humidity sensor is disposed within the chamber that senses the humidity of the gas exiting the chamber. A monitoring circuit is connected to the humidity sensor that detects when the chamber requires a recharge of liquid based on the humidity of the gas in the chamber, and generates a recharge signal indicative thereof. A charging port on the housing provides access into the chamber to recharge the chamber with water. A heating element and temperature sensor are also disposed within the chamber. A control circuit further regulates the temperature of the gas exiting the chamber.

    摘要: A method includes receiving, from a primary pressure sensor, a pressure measurement indicative of a pressure of a patient cavity and controlling, by an insufflator, a supply of the insufflation fluid to the patient cavity based on the pressure measurement from the primary pressure sensor. The method further includes delivering, by a trocar, the supplied insufflation fluid to the patient cavity via an access port, wherein: the access port comprises a seal and a retractor; and the access port facilitates access therethrough to the patient cavity.

    摘要: A method comprises positioning a medical appliance having a primary pressure sensor at or within a patient incision site and supplying an insufflation fluid to the patient cavity. The method further comprises measuring a pressure in the patient cavity by the primary pressure sensor and controlling the supply of insufflation fluid by an insufflator to the patient cavity based at least on the measured pressure. The method further comprises determining, by a processor associated with the insufflator, that the measured pressure may be inaccurate and, in response to determining that the measured pressure may be inaccurate, controlling, by the insufflator, the supply of the insufflation fluid to the patient cavity based at least on a pressure measured by a backup pressure sensor.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a method includes positioning a trocar having a primary pressure sensor in or on the trocar into a patient cavity. The method also includes supplying an insufflation fluid to the patient cavity and measuring a pressure in the patient cavity by the primary pressure sensor. The method further includes controlling the supply of insufflation fluid by an insufflator to the patient cavity based at least on the measured pressure and determining by a processor associated with the insufflator that the measured pressure may be inaccurate and in response, controlling, by the insufflator, the supply of insufflation fluid to the patient cavity based at least on a pressure measured by a backup pressure sensor rather than based on the measured pressure.

    摘要: An apparatus for conditioning gas for use in a medical procedure, the gas being received into the apparatus from a gas source. The apparatus comprises a housing defining a chamber having an entry port and an exit port. The housing contains at least a humidification means comprising a container for liquid, such as at least one liquid retaining layer that is disposed within the chamber in the path of travel of the gas for humidifying the gas as it passes through the chamber. A humidity sensor may be disposed within the chamber that senses the humidity of the gas exiting the chamber. A monitoring circuit is connected to the humidity sensor that detects when the chamber requires a recharge of liquid based on the humidity of the gas in the chamber, and generates a recharge signal indicative thereof a charging port on the housing provides access into the chamber to recharge the chamber with water. Alternatively, a backup container of liquid is provided to continuously supply liquid to the humidification means. A heating element and temperature sensor are also disposed within the chamber. A control circuit further regulates the temperature of the gas exiting the chamber.
