    摘要: The invention relates to a liquid sampling device a support structure having a liquid reception interface that is in fluid communication with a reservoir chamber and a microfluidic valve, the microfluidic valve being connected to a measuring chamber. The liquid reception interface, the reservoir chamber and the microfluidic valve are configured to allow liquid entering the liquid reception interface to flow into the reservoir chamber while being prevented from passing the microfluidic valve unless a predetermined static pressure difference over the microfluidic valve is exceeded. The microfluidic valve is a passive valve without moving parts. Passing of liquid through the microfluidic valve is controlled by a static pressure difference over the microfluidic valve. The reservoir chamber is configured and arranged to cause high enough a static pressure at an entrance side of the microfluidic valve that causes a flow of liquid through the microfluidic valve into the measuring chamber once the reservoir chamber is completely filled.

    摘要: A method may include coupling a first delivery device to a catheter assembly, which may include a catheter dwelling within vasculature of a patient. The first delivery device may include a first tubular instrument. In response to the first tubular instrument being in a distal position, a distal surface of the first tubular instrument may be disposed at a first distance beyond the distal tip of the catheter. The method may include coupling a second delivery device to the catheter assembly after uncoupling the first delivery device from the catheter assembly. The second delivery device may include a second tubular instrument. In response to the second tubular instrument being in the distal position, a distal surface of the second tubular instrument may be disposed at a second distance beyond the distal tip of the catheter. The second distance may be greater than the first distance.
