A subdural drainage device includes a subdural drainage housing defining a drainage passageway. The drainage passageway has a A subdural drainage device includes a subdural drainage housing defining a drainage passageway. The drainage passageway has a lower opening configured to connect to a subdural space of a patient and an upper opening. A blockage removal unit is in the housing, and the blockage removal unit has an end portion that is configured to reduce or remove blockages adjacent the lower opening of the drainage passageway that is movable between a retracted position in which the end portion is in the subdural drainage housing and an extended position in which the end portion of the blockage removal unit extends away from the subdural drainage housing via the lower opening of the drainage passageway. At least one side delivery port is in the housing and in fluid communication with the drainage passageway.

A sealed fluid transfer device comprised of tubing, a proximal fitting, and a distal needle assembly is provided. The needle assembly includes a needle hub secured to a needle cannula. A cantilevered actuator arm extends outwardly from the needle hub having an actuator button at its free end. The needle assembly is disposed in a barrel and can move from a distal position, where the needle is exposed, to a proximal position, where the needle is shielded. The barrel includes a septum which seals the barrel. A spring is disposed in the barrel for propelling the needle assembly to the proximal position. The barrel includes an aperture that receives the actuator button for locking the spring in a compressed condition. Depression of the actuator button enables the spring to propel the needle assembly into its proximal position. A safety mechanism prevents inadvertent depression of the actuator button.

A sampling port includes a hub having a body that forms a hub chamber for containing a fluid. The hub also has a proximal opening to the hub chamber for receiving a medical implement, and the hub chamber has a valve member that normally closes the opening. The valve member has a valve wall forming a valve interior. The sampling port also has a first and second fluid channel formed by the hub body and in fluid communication with the hub chamber. The first and second channels have radial portions and proximally extending portions with proximally extending longitudinal axes. The proximally extending longitudinal axes form a plane therebetween that diverges from the longitudinal axis of the first fluid channel.

A protective cap (1) for application on a medicai device such as a medical vial (2) comprising a membrane holder (3) in which a resilient membrane (18) is mounted. The protective cap (1) is provided with connection means (10) for connecting the cap (1) to the medical device (2). The resilient membrane (18) comprises a piercing portion (20) and a sealing portion (22) and is mechanically and/or adhesively held in the protective cap (1) and is arranged to be brought into seaiing contact with a receiving portion of the medical device (2) when the protective cap (1) is applied on the medicai device (2).
摘要:
Fluid storage apparatus (22) for medical use is described that comprises a length of tubing (248) having a first end and a second end. A first sealable connector portion (250) is provided at the first end and a second sealable connector portion (252) is provided at the second end. The volume of fluid that can be stored within the apparatus (22) is known and an infusate or therapeutic agent is contained within the apparatus. In this manner, a known volume of therapeutic agent can be infused to a patient. The use in neurosurgical applications is described.
摘要:
Generally described herein are apparatus, systems and methods related to a pre-loaded septum insertable in an access port housing for increasing the control of the compression within the septum and the interference between the septum and the housing. For example, a pair of washers having mating portions may be positioned on respective sides of a rubber septum and bent such that the mating portions of one of the washer are interlocked with the mating portions of the other washer, the interlocked portions forming a tight ring about the septum and generating lateral compression on the septum, thereby "loading" the septum. In addition, fluid seals made of a rubber material with lower durometer than the rubber septum may be used at the interface between the rubber septum and the housing to enhance the fluid sealing functionality while promoting the self-sealing features of the rubber septum.

A system can include an implantable device, an instrument, a display device and a processor. The implantable device can include a port and a localizer for generating a navigation field. The instrument can include a tracking device for sensing the navigation field. The processor can be operably coupled to the tracking and display devices and operable to determine a real-time location of the instrument relative to the port and a trajectory of the instrument relative to an insertion axis of the port.
