Title: Calibration of in vivo blood pressure sensors
Inventor: WILLIAMS JONATHAN
IPC: A61B5/02
Filed: 2006-08-01
Abstract: A method for performing an in-vivo calibration of a blood pressure sensor (40) that is associated with a balloon (10) of an in-vivo balloon system, the sensor and balloon being associated such that the sensor is in-vivo when the balloon is in-vivo. The balloon is inflated so that a gas pressure in the balloon system is indicative of a patient's blood pressure. The patient's blood pressure is monitored through two channels, the gas pressure and the sensor. The blood pressure measurements obtained by monitoring the gas pressure are used as reference, or "true," blood pressure measurements to determine a mathematical relationship between blood pressure measurements obtained through the sensor and the reference blood pressure measurements. In this manner, future blood pressure measurements obtained through the sensor can be modified according to the mathematical relationship to generate calibrated blood pressure measurements.

Abstract: A medicated inhalant dispenser (1) has a plastics material body (2) having a mouthpiece (3). A pressurised, inhalant source (4) has a canister (5) and a spout (6), which is moved towards the canister for release of a dose from the canister. The spout is accommodated in a junction member (7), which is movable by a cam (8) connected to a pivotal cover (9) for the mouthpiece. Opening of the cover sets a breath actuable kink valve (10), having a nozzle (11) through which the inhalant is released and a breath flap (12) actuation. Opening also causes the junction member to be lifted for dose dispensing into the kink valve. Breathing in releases the dose for inhalation. A closed sleeve (20) is provided for abutment of the end (21) of the canister as the junction member is moved towards the canister. Between the canister end (21) and an end (22) of the closed sleeve, an adjustable abutment (23) is provided. The closed sleeve is welded onto the body. The abutment or end location (23) is sized to provide that the source is supported in its correct position for opening of its valve on operation of the cam mechanism (8).
