This means that the inner layer is excluded from the seams. The laminate may be of polyvinylchloride and a polyhalohydrocarbon such as polychlorotrifluoroethylene which forms the inner layer. Two sheets 14, 15 may be welded together to enclose the contents, by high frequency heating whereby both films are melted simultaneously and pressure is applied by jaws such as 17, 17a to force the inner layer from the seam.

Medical tubes and methods of manufacture

Номер: GB0002557118A
Принадлежит:

A composite tube (201, figure 2A) for use in medical circuits carrying gases is made from two separate elongate members joined together. The first elongate member is a hollow body (203) spirally wound to form in part an elongate tube comprising a lumen and a hollow wall. The second elongate member (205) is spirally wound between the adjacent turns of the first. The first elongate member has a flattened surface 211 at the lumen and a radius of curvature distal from the lumen. Preferably the two members provide a tube having a smooth lumen surface and crush resistance. The tube is manufactured by spirally wrapping the second elongate member onto a mandrel and then spirally wrapping the first elongate member around the second. The tubes may be for inspiration, expiration, insufflation, exploration or providing positive airway pressure.

The embodiments of the present tracheostomy valves include a flexible diaphragm abutting a rib shaped substantially as a flat plate. Opposite the rib, the diaphragm abuts a boss and forms an uninterrupted seal therewith. As the tracheostomized patient inhales, the diaphragm bends about the rib, interrupting the seal and allowing air to flow smoothly into the valve. The features of the various embodiments contribute to a positive seal at all times except during inhalation, and low resistance to airflow through the valve during inhalation.

A reservoir cannula is described that has a static fluidic control structure, in that it does not employ a membrane or other moving parts. Furthermore, the reservoir is open to ambient air instead of being sealed. In use, the reservoir cannula enables storage of oxygen and oxygen-rich gas in a storage chamber as well as in and around the patient's nasal passages and nasopharynx, which enables high volume oxygen delivery to the patient early in the next inhalation. Consequently, patients using this delivery mode can carry a smaller and lighter portable oxygen container for ambulatory oxygen, because lower flow oxygen is required to meet their oxygenation needs. In addition, patients requiring a higher flow of oxygen can achieve oxygenation levels previously achieved only by high flow mask or high flow nasal oxygen systems. 1.

Such treatments could involve multiple injections of medicines that have to be given over a period of days or weeks. In a different configuration, it also allows for electrical stimulation of the brain thru electrodes without the need for batteries, and allows the flow of electricity from outside the brain to the affected areas using induction coils. The Brain Portal can also be used as an easy means to collect samples of cerebral spinal fluid without the need of a spinal tap. Furthermore, having an easy access allows the physician the option of injecting drugs directly into the brain, bypassing the blood-brain barrier, thereby lowering the dosage needed to treat disease.
