20090301484 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING A FLUID TO A PATIENT - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for delivering medicated fluid or anaesthetic to a patient. An issue, particularly with small patients, is the issue of dead space in an anaesthetic circuit which can lead to hypoxia and difficulty with achieving anaesthesia. An apparatus in accordance with the present invention minimises or eliminates dead space by introducing fresh gas (e.g. containing anaesthetic) proximal to a respiratory opening of the subject's respiratory tract, and inducing a fluid flow to reduce re-breathing of fluid exhausted from the respiratory tract. | 12-10-2009 |
20110112411 | BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for facilitating blood pressure measurement. An additional fluid reservoir is arranged to be connected in fluid communication with the blood pressure cuff. The fluid reservoir provides an additional, compliant volume to the fluid volume of the cuff, facilitating blood pressure measurement, particularly for small volume cuffs. | 05-12-2011 |
20120216807 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING A FLUID TO A PATIENT - The present invention relates to an apparatus for facilitating delivery of a fluid, such as an anaesthetic fluid, to the respiratory tract of a subject. It comprises a fluid line substrate, in the form of a block having conduits form therein for delivery and removal of an anaesthetic. A subject port is formed to receive the anatomy of the patient. A mask apparatus is arranged for mating with the subject port, and having an opening to receive the nose and mouth of the subject. | 08-30-2012 |
20140171813 | BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for facilitating blood pressure measurement. An additional fluid reservoir is arranged to be connected in fluid communication with the blood pressure cuff. The fluid reservoir provides an additional, compliant volume to the fluid volume of the cuff, facilitating blood pressure measurement, particularly for small volume cuffs. | 06-19-2014 |
20150013676 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING DELIVERY OF ANAESTHETIC - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for facilitating anaesthesia, particularly in Re-Breather anaesthetic circuits. A problem with Re-Breather circuits is that their dynamic response can be relatively slow. The dynamic response is the response of the circuit to delivering changes of anaesthetic concentration. In current circuits, Fresh Gas containing anaesthetic is delivered into the circuit and may be substantially diluted by the gas already present in the circuit. It is therefore difficult to achieve a rapid increase of anaesthetic concentration for delivery to the patient. In the present invention, an accumulator is placed in the Re-Breather circuit to accumulate Fresh Gas containing anaesthetic as it is introduced into the circuit, adjacent an inhalation conduit to the patient. Fresh Gas containing high concentrations of anaesthetic is therefore immediately available to the patient. | 01-15-2015 |
20150020803 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MAINTAINING PATIENT TEMPERATURE DURING A PROCEDURE - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for maintaining patient temperature during an anaesthetic procedure. Patients, particularly small patients, can lose body temperature when undergoing surgery or other procedures where they are anaesthetised. The process of breathing the cool anaesthetic gas contributes to the temperature loss of the patient. An anaesthetic apparatus of the present invention is arranged to warm the gas being provided for the patient to breathe, to facilitate maintaining body temperature. An inspired limb of an anaesthetic circuit comprises tubing with a heating conductor for heating the inspired gas. | 01-22-2015 |
