    摘要: In a fiber-optic probe for intravascular measurements, e.g. oxygen saturation measurements, the fiber-optical core has only two fibers. A single fiber core is also possible. A reinforcement fiber improves stiffness, kink resistance and overall strength of the probe. The reinforcement fiber is arranged essentially parallel to the core fibers. The reinforcement fiber may also be wound around the core in a helical manner thus improving the mechanical properties to an even higher degree. The outside of the sheath is coated with an antithrombogenic coating for reducing the danger of clots forming at the surface. The reinforcement fiber may be made of carbon, metal, ceramics or aramide.

    摘要: The catheter has a proximal port with an opening of a feeding lumen. There are two further openings in another proximal port with a connector, to which a source/sink of gas pressure and a pressure gauge can be connected. The interior of a distal balloon communicates with the opening and can hence be inflated and deflated through that opening in order to measure intra-abdominal pressure using the pressure gauge. A reflux filter is integrated into the connector. In the upper connector piece or lower connector piece a recess surrounding the measurement lumen is provided at the contact surface between the connector pieces. The gas-permeable filter membrane is disposed in the recess for preventing liquids in the lumen from entering from the lower connector piece into the upper connector piece and thus from passing through the opening in case of rupture or leakage of the distal balloon.

    摘要: The device according to the invention serves to set up a dilution measurement site on a hemodialyzer. Using such a measurement site, it is possible to determine the filling status of a dialysis patient during dialysis treatment, by means of dilution measurements. Checking the fluid balance by means of weighing the dialysis patient, which is subject to error, can be eliminated. The arterial connection piece is connected with an arterial fistula needle, and the venous connection piece is connected with a venous fistula needle as the blood vessel access. The venous connection piece has an injection channel through which a bolus required to perform a dilution measurement can be injected into the blood, which flows through the venous connection piece coming from the hemodialyzer, in the direction of the venous blood vessel access. The arterial connection piece has a temperature sensor by means of which the temperature of the blood, which flows through the venous connection piece coming from the arterial blood vessel access, in the direction of the hemodialyzer, can be measured. The system response to the disruption caused in the bloodstream of the dialysis patient by means of the bolus injection can be determined by way of this temperature measurement, and the bloodstream filling status can be determined from this.
