摘要: The present invention provides an improved method of manufacturing a pressure transducer of the optical fiber type and an improved pressure transducer of that type, the method including the steps of providing a housing having a greatest interior dimension less than twice the diameter of the optical fibers, deforming the housing by applying pressure thereto such that an interior dimension of the housing along one axis thereof exceeds twice the diameter of the optical fibers, and releasing the pressure on the housing so that the housing substantially resumes its undeformed state and fixedly traps the optical fibers at a preselected location within the housing. An improved pressure transducer of the optical fiber type has a housing receiving the distal end of an optical path, the housing including an aperture, and a pressure sensitive membrane disposed in covering relation to the aperture under tension. The aperture has a substantially nonlinear circumference, preferably in the shape of a circle that was laid on the outer cylindrical surface of the housing as a template for the aperture.

摘要: This invention relates to an introducer slitter for slitting an introducer tube portion having, for example, a catheter extending therethrough and into a body vessel while the introducer tube is moved rearwardly relative to the catheter to facilitate separating the introducer from the catheter without having to slide the introducer tube portion over the proximal end of the catheter. The slitter includes an arcuate section having an inner peripheral wall that extends arcuately through an angle of at least about 180.degree. and is adapted to abut against the catheter, and a nose portion that extends between the catheter and introducer tube portions as the introducer is moved axially rearwardly relative to the catheter, a handle section extending radially outwardly of the arcuate section and a radially extending cutting edge for engaging the introducer tube portion for slitting the introducer tube portion as the introducer is pulled rearwardly relative to the slitter.

摘要: A physiological pressure transducer assembly mounted on a transvenously-insertable guide wire is disclosed. The multiple coils of the guide wire define an elongated tubular passage within which fiber optic leads are contained for the transmission of light signals to a pressure transducer. A window or aperture is cut along a restricted portion of the length of the guide wire coil to provide a pressure-sensing aperture over which an elastic, pressure-sensitive membrane is positioned. The coils of the guide wire adjacent to the sensing aperture are joined together for increased rigidity along the length of the pressure transducer assembly, as by soldering or brazing. A separate, cylindrical housing, preferably of molded plastic, is wholly contained within the reinforced length of the guide wire. The proximal end portions of fiber optic sending and receiving leads or paths are received and contained within the housing in a predetermined arrangement and geometry defining a light-transmitting gap. Light transmission across the gap is controllably attenuated by deflection of the pressure-responsive membrane in response to pressure changes within a person's body, and the attenuated light signals are transmitted to an external control unit as indicative of pressure changes. A reflector positioned on an end cap closing the proximal end of the elongated guide wire is utilized to reflect signals from the signal transmitting, fiber optic lead or path to the proximal end portion of a return signal, fiber optic lead or path.

摘要: The device comprises a basin having a wall with a U-shaped indentation for reception of a user's neck. A series of independently adjustable ducts, each of which incorporates several jet heads, each jet head having a number of nozzles arranged to direct streams of water radially inwards, are mounted on the basin. The ducts are connected to a common water inlet manifold and are adjustable to selected stationary positions such that the whole of the user's hair can be simultaneously rinsed. The jet heads are preferably linearly and/or rotationally adjustable with respect to the ducts. Rinsing water is caused to accumulate in a pool at the bottom of the basin by a weir running across the floor and preferably incorporating a narrow gap to provide controlled out-flow of water. The ducts may also be adapted to fit within a conventional backwash basin by means of suitable bracket means.
