摘要:
An extracorporeal blood circuit, comprising an expansion chamber for air-blood separation, wherein a filter (38) retains the solid particles in the blood. The filter has a trunco-conical filtering wall with a vertical axis surmounted by a top head (43) provided with upper openings (44) conformed and arranged such as to define a fluid passage which is asymmetrical with respect to the vertical axis. The top head does not retain air bubbles internally thereof, thus preventing a situation in which the air bubbles are directed towards an outlet of the expansion chamber and thus towards the patient. The extracorporeal circuit is used in a dialysis apparatus.

An extracorporeal blood chamber (12) comprises an expansion reservoir (47) having a first access (48) arranged laterally and a second access (49) arranged on the bottom of the chamber (12). The chamber comprises, integrally with the reservoir, a first conduit terminating in the first access, a second conduit terminating in the first access, and a third conduit terminating in the second access. The extracorporeal blood enters the reservoir through the first conduit and there mixes with an infusion fluid which enters through the second conduit. The resulting mixture exits through the third conduit. The chamber is used in a hemo(dia)filtration apparatus to mix the blood optimally with the replacement fluid.
摘要:
In a blood transfer chamber, a filter (4) is arranged at an outlet located on a bottom of the chamber. The filter is truncoconical with a vertically-disposed axis. The filter has a plurality of openings (13, 14) for fluid passage, a size of which openings increases gradually in an upwards direction going from bottom to top of the chamber. The filter is used in a venous air-blood separation chamber of a dialysis set. The invention enables a reduction of a risk of hemolysis during treatment as well as a reduction of the risk of formation of air bubble retention in the filter during a priming stage.

An air separator (1) comprises a first chamber (2) where blood or other fluid can be received, an inlet and an outlet port associated to the bottom wall (4) and in fluid communication with the first chamber. A first channel (14) extending along the lateral wall of the separator and has a first and a second portion (16 and 18). The channel second portion (18) terminally forms an orifice (15) facing the chamber and extending in an area closer to a top wall (5) of the chamber (2) than to the bottom wall of the same chamber. The orifice faces the top of the separator and has a flow passage cross section greater than that of a first portion (16) of the channel.

摘要:
A medical fluid circuit comprises a fluid transport unit connected to a source of a medical fluid for infusion into an extracorporeal blood circuit. A support element for the transport line exhibits three engaging projections predisposed for mounting the unit to an external apparatus. A first and a second projection each comprise a first and a second tubular extension (38), while a third projection (37) is distant from an imaginary straight zone which unites the tubular extensions. An ultrafilter (28) for ultrafiltration of the medical fluid is situated in a space comprised between the third projection and the imaginary straight zone. The unit, which is for providing a replacement fluid to a hemo(dia)filtration apparatus, can be easily mounted on the apparatus.

A degassing device (203) comprises a first chamber (21) having an inlet for a liquid, and a second chamber (22) having an opening (23) closed by a hydrophobic membrane (24) and an outlet (25) for discharging the liquid. The first chamber (21) has a downstream portion that partially extends within the second chamber (22) and communicates therewith by a passageway (28). The second chamber (22) has a downstream portion that extends below the passageway (28) and asymmetrically surrounds the downstream portion of the first chamber (21).
