Patent CA-2614807-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOPKINS MARK ALAN
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 2007-12-14
Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus and method controlling the flow of aspiration fluid in an aspiration chamber of a surgical cassette. One embodiment of the present invention provides an aspiration chamber having an aspiration port positioned at or close to the bottom of the chamber. When the aspiration fluid enters the aspiration chamber from below the fluid surface (e.g., from a port located at the bottom or on a sidewall close to the bottom), it does not create disturbance at the liquid/air interface and thus does not disturb the continuous level sensing.  Also, since the aspiration port is placed at or very close to the bottom of the aspiration chamber, the liquid inside the chamber can be fully used for sustained reflux and push priming.
