Abstract: A convective warmer to which blankets of different dimensions may be connected is capable of providing air to the various blankets at flow rates that optimally inflate those blankets to achieve the optimal clinical result for the patients covered by those blankets. The blanket connected to the warmer may range from a full size adult warming blanket to a pediatric warming blanket. The convection warmer may have multiple fixed air flow rates each selectable by a user, via switch(es) either electronically or mechanically. For the electronic selection of a given flow rate, a motor adaptable to rotate a different speeds is used. To vary the flow rate mechanically, a valve is controlled to vary the amount of air that may pass to the blanket. Instead of different fixed flow rates, variable air flow rates, selectable by the user, may be used. Also, a feedback circuit that maintains the pressure sensed at the outlet of the warmer to a preset pressure may be used to eliminate the need for user intervention.

Abstract: A fluid transfer system has a holder that is made of a cylindrical member having a closed end and an open end. The closed end has fitted thereto a luer and a cannula that extends into the interior of the holder. The holder has a distal portion that has a first cross section and a proximal portion that has a second cross section. The cross section of the distal portion is smaller than the cross section of the proximal portion. The distal and proximal portions are joined by a shoulder. The fluid transfer system also includes an adapter that is inserted, to the holder from the open end of the holder. The adapter has a base having a central opening and a cylindrical tube that extends from the central opening. The diameter of the cylindrical tube is slightly smaller than the diameter of the distal portion and is configured to accept a first type of fluid collection store such as a vacuum tube. A non-continuous wall extends from the base of the adapter to surround the cylindrical tube. The cross section of the wall is slightly smaller than the diameter of the proximal portion. At each section of the non-continuous wall there is formed a protuberance. A groove is formed about the inner surface of the proximal portion. When the adapter is fully inserted to the holder, the protuberances would snap fit to the groove so that the adapter is prevented from being inadvertently removed from the holder. With the adapter removed, the holder can accept a differently dimensioned fluid collection store such as for example a blood culture collection bottle.

Abstract: A safety catheter assembly has a clip guard that covers and protects the needle clip from the time that the catheter assembly is shipped out in the ready state, through its use where the distal tip of the needle is entrapped in the needle clip after use, and to when the clip guard and the safety needle clip housed therein are removed from the catheter hub. A passive safety system of the needle clip couples the catheter hub and the needle housing in the ready state and during the use of the catheter assembly, and releases the catheter hub from the needle housing once the contaminated needle tip is captured in the needle clip. A wiper provided to the catheter assembly wipes blood from the needle to prevent exposure of the contaminated blood. The wiper may also act to retain a septum in the catheter hub. The clip guard may be adapted to be used with a catheter hub having a multiuse seal member.

Abstract: A retainer with a closure mechanism not removable from the retainer is bonded to each of the air inlet openings of an inflatable convective thermal blanket. The bottom surface of the retainer is bonded to the blanket so that its orifice is in alignment with the opening into the blanket. The closure may be a flexible layer or sheet that is adhesively attached to the top surface of the retainer. An end portion of the flexible layer away from the orifice of the retainer may be press or die cut into the retainer so that the flexible layer is non-removably attached to the retainer when the user peels the releasably secured portion of the flexible layer away from the retainer to expose the air inlet opening. The closure can also be an extension of the retainer that is hingedly connected to the retainer so as to be able to be moved pivotally to cover the retainer. The closure has a configuration that allows it to be releasably secured to the retainer when it covers the orifice opening of the retainer.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes various catheters that address potential recoil issues. Such catheter may contain multiple lumens that allow for the discharge of infusants a various points on the catheter distal end. Further, multiple openings may be present on the distal end of the catheter. The openings can be covered with a membrane that ruptures at a designated flow pressure. The catheter tip can contain blind holes that remain covered, and are only opened to become active when required. Such catheters can allow for multiple infusant flow exits, rather than a singular steady jet exiting the distal end of the catheter.
