Patent EP-0498382-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PEABODY ALAN M
IPC: A61M1/16
Filed: 1992-02-05
Abstract: A peritoneal dialysis system of the continuous flow type includes a reverse osmosis unit which prepares sterilized and filtered water. The process, which may be used with a single or double catheter, includes proportioning water, dialysis-concentrate, and dextrose to provide a dialysis fluid which is then heated and sterilized. The fluid may be accumulated in a reservoir. Load cells and/or flowmeters are utilized to measure the flow rate of the fluid in and out of the peritoneal cavity, either simultaneously or cyclic, and control the amount of fluid in the cavity. Preferably, the process and system includes a double flow catheter in which the flow of dialysis fluid through the inflow passage and the outflow passage are simultaneous. During this time, the volume of fluid in the peritoneal cavity is monitored by an ultrasonic or other suitable sensor so that over extension of the cavity does not occur. In a preferred tidal dialysis regime, a desired number of fill and partial drain cycles are performed wherein a puddle of dialysis fluid always remains in the cavity.

Abstract: A package comprising, shirred, essentially cylindrically shaped, food casing strands, each of which has a strand diameter D. The strands are oriented in the package in such a way that longitudinal axes of the strands are parallel, external surfaces of the strands contact external surfaces of adjacent strands and ends of the strands terminate in approximately the same plane, which plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the strands. The strands are further oriented so that lines passing perpendicularly through the central axes of strands located proximate the external surface of the package intersect to form a hexagon in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axes. Sides of the hexagon have side lengths such that the lengths vary by no more than 1 D from each other. Strands, internally within the package, i.e. which would not have an exteriorly exposed surface if all package wraps were removed, contact six adjacent strands. 
     The package usually consists essentially of, n rows of strands and an external package retainer, usually a package wrap. Preferably each of the lines forming the hexagon passes through the central axes of either an equal number of strands or a number of strands which do not vary by more than one. Preferably, the package according to the present invention has an odd number of rows n, which is a number of 5 to 15.

Abstract: A DDS type variable frequency signal generator generates a jitter free and stable output signal regardless of the address interval. If the total number of addressable memory locations of a memory (16) storing digital data is divisible without remainder by an initial address interval, then the memory is read every initial address interval with a clock signal of a predetermined frequency. If the total number of addressable memory locations is not divisible without remainder by the initial address interval, then the address interval is modified to a value that is divisible without remainder into the total number of addressable memory locations and the clock frequency is modified in accordance with this modification of the address interval. The memory is read every modified address interval with the modified clock signal.

Abstract: A zero crossing detection circuit produces an output signal which changes state to indicate the occurrence of a positive-going zero crossing of an AC input signal. The circuit includes first and second input terminals (100 and 102), a current sensitive switch (124) such as an opto-isolator, first and second current regulators (110 and 118), and a voltage limiter (116). The first current regulator (110) is connected in series with the current sensitive switch (124), and the voltage limiter (116) is connected in parallel with the first current regulator (110) and the current sensitive switch (124). The second current regulator (118) is connected between the first input terminal (100) and the parallel combination of the voltage limiter (116) and the first current regulator (110) and the current sensitive switch (124). The first current regulator (110) limits current through the current sensitive switch to a first, substantially constant, current limit level, and the second current regulator (118) limits current flowing between the first and second input terminals to a second current limit level which is greater than the first current level. The zero crossing detection circuit offers the ability to sense zero crossings of AC input signals having a wide range of AC voltages.

Abstract: A glass grinder for breaking glass from particle or fragment configuration to a grit of a predetermined size. The grinder employs a grinding chamber having an upper and lower portion wherein glass fragments are broken into relatively large particulate size in the upper chamber and passes into the lower chamber where glass is further impacted by blades and driven into a peripheral dam of glass particles. As the glass impacts the dam, it is further broken down to the desired grit size. Overflow from the grit dam exits the chamber under a reduced pressure to control dust production.

Abstract: An apparatus for heating parenteral fluids for intravenous delivery to a patient. The apparatus includes a disposable cassette which in one presently preferred embodiment is made up of a unitary member which is divided to form a serpentine flow path by a plurality of path separators. Thin, flexible metallic foil membranes are sealingly joined to the unitary member on the upper and bottom surfaces thereof to form an enclosed, fluid-tight serpentine flow path between the plurality of path separators. The entire periphery of the unitary member and the thin, flexible heat conductive foil membranes are sealingly held by a framework. The disposable cassette slides between first and second heating blocks which contact the thin, flexible heat conductive foil membranes so as to provide heat transfer to fluid flowing in the serpentine flow path. The heating blocks are designed to provide a gradation of heat energy such that more heat energy is available for transfer to the parenteral fluid at the inlet end of the serpentine flow path than is available for transfer to the parenteral fluid at the outlet end of the serpentine flow path.
