    Abstract: This invention relates to an infusion device for a catheter lock solution, to a method of enhancing the patency of catheters in animals and to a catheter lock solution. The device includes a syringe (34) containing a lock solution comprising a citrate salt. The method for enhancing the patency of catheters includes infusing a lumen (14, 16) of an indwelling catheter (10) with a lock solution comprising a citrate salt. In one aspect of the invention, the catheter lock solution includes a citrate salt and a viscosifying agent. The lock solution is prepared to have sufficient viscosity and density to remain in the lumen for a desired amount of time.

    Abstract: Apparatuses for use in whole body hypothermia include a high-flow hyperthermia circuit coupled to a low-flow dialysis circuit in a manner which reduces tensioning of membranes in the dialyzer of the dialysis circuit. The arrangement thereby allows proper membrane movement to assist in mixing a sorbent suspension circulated on the sorbent side of the dialyzer. Additional dialysis apparatuses include advantageous disposable packs including the dialyzer, sorbent heat exchangers arranged to cooperate with heating elements on base units of the apparatuses, and adaptations for very high flow rates useful in the hyperthermic treatment of cancers.

    Abstract: A non-intravascular infusion access device and method for long-term continuous infusion of drugs. The infusion access device includes a porous membrane made of a material which is biocompatible for long-term patency inside the body. The porous membrane is connected to a conducting tubing which exits from the body and is connected to a drug infusion system. At the exit site is a cuff of porous material. The cuff serves to anchor the access device in position as the surrounding body tissue grows back around the cuff. There are also two small suture retainers for stabilizing the position of the access device relative until tissue ingrowth occurs in and around the cuff.

    Abstract: A multiple lumen catheter assembly and methods for inserting the same are provided. The assembly includes a splittable membrane joining a first catheter and a second catheter for allowing the catheters to be at least partially longitudinally split from each other. Each catheter has at least one lumen extending longitudinally through the catheter. One method for inserting the assembly includes making an incision near the area to be catheterized, at least partially splitting the distal end regions of the catheters from each other by splitting apart the splittable membrane, and inserting the distal end regions of the catheters in a juxtaposed relation through the incision and into the area to be catheterized. In another method, the catheters are first tunnelled subcutaneously by pulling the distal end regions of the catheters in the assembly through a tunnel and outwardly from the tunnel near the area to be catheterized, leaving proximal end regions at least partially within the tunnel. An incision is made near the area to be catheterized, the distal end regions of the catheters are at least partially split from each other by splitting the splittable membrane, and the distal end regions of the catheters are inserted in a juxtaposed relation through the incision and into the area to be catheterized.

    Abstract: An implantable filtration and collection device for collecting a filtrate containing a physiological constituent of the body present in an interstitial body space. The device is operable with a negative pressure generating source to withdraw the filtrate from the interstitial body space. The device includes a porous filter made of a material compatible for long-term patency inside the body and adapted to be implanted inside the body in fluid communication with the interstitial space. The pores in the filter are sized not to exceed a predetermined dimension corresponding to the size of the physiological constituent being filtered. A collector in the form of an elongate tube is connected to the filter and and serves to communicate the filtrate externally of the body where it may be withdrawn from the collector by a negative pressure generating source.
