Title: Endolumenal aortic isolation assembly and method
Inventor: PEACOCK JAMES C III
IPC: A61F2/958
Filed: 1998-11-20
Granted: 2008-01-29
Abstract: A medical device assembly is adapted to isolate the heart from systemic circulation while perfusing oxygenated blood to the systemic arterial circulation during a minimally invasive bypass procedure. The assembly includes an arterial catheter with an external shunt valve which forms an anchor to secure the distal end portion within the aortic arch and which also forms a funnel which shunts antegrade aortic blood flow from the aortic root, into a distal flow port and through an internal flow lumen in the catheter, out an intermediate flow port along the catheter proximally of the anchor, and into the systemic arterial circulation. A distal internal valve located within the internal flow lumen between the distal and intermediate flow ports selectively occludes the shunted antegrade aortic blood flow between the distal flow port and the intermediate flow port, thereby isolating the left ventricle from the systemic arterial circulation wherein oxygenated blood may then flow from a cardiopulmonary bypass pump, distally through the internal flow lumen, and out the intermediate port. The assembly also includes a venous catheter which aspirates venous blood from the vena cavae and into the cardiopulmonary bypass pump while substantially isolating the right heart chambers from the vena cavae and without circumferentially engaging the internal walls of the vena cavae. A  medical device system is also provided with an arterial catheter having an elongate body with a distal end portion that includes a flow lumen extending between distal and proximal ports and also an aorta isolation assembly located between the distal and proximal ports. The aorta isolation assembly includes distal and proximal portions that are separated by an isolation region and are adjustable to extended positions which are adapted to circumferentially engage the aortic wall. When the intermediate region is positioned along a proximal anastomosis site of an aorta, the distal and proximal protions may be adjusted to their extended positions to engage the aortic wall on upstream and downstream sides of the proximal anastomosis site. Blood flowing within the aorta is thereby isolated from the proximal anastomosis site along the intermediate region and is shunted from an upstream region of the aorta, through the distal port into the flow lumen, proximally along the flow lumen, out from the flow lumen through the proximal port, and into a downstream region of the aorta. A combination arterial catheter system includes the internal valve and the aorta isolation assemblies described, and may be used to selectively perform either a "stopped heart" cardiac bypass procedure or a "beating heart" coronary artery bypass graft procedure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a free jet centrifuge, especially for cleaning the lubricating oil of an internal combustion engine. The aim of the invention is to provide a centrifuge which is economical to produce and at the same time allows for high speeds. To this end the invention on one side of the rotor provides for a ball bearing (16) in the housing, which engages a closed shaft journal (14) of the rotor.  In the area of this bearing the rotor is sealed so that the friction in the ball bearing is not raised by the oil pressure in the centrifuge. A slide bearing is provided for on the other side of the rotor which consists of a bearing bushing (20) and a sliding bush (21). In this way a combination of materials which is optimal in terms of tribological properties can be selected. A hollow journal (19) which also acts as oil inlet (24) for the centrifuge rotor is inserted into the sliding bush. To increase speed even further the invention provides for a pulse channel (30) which discharges into nozzles (31). This device is integrated into a plastic base of the rotor (13) which permits the production of highly precise input nozzles (31).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un outil d'échantillonage de fluides de puits (5) et le procédé correspondant d'échantillonage de fluides de puits. Les outils connus d'échantillonage monophasique posent un certain nombre de problèmes, liés notamment à la longueur et au diamètre extérieur de ces outils. En conséquence, la présente invention propose un outil d'échantillonage de fluides de puits (5) comportant, au moins en cours d'utilisation, une chambre à échantillon (315) au moins partiellement contenue à l'intérieur d'une gaine au moins partiellement sous vide (160, 165, 170) et une paroi, la plus à l'extérieur (160) de la gaine (160, 165, 170), adjacente à ou formant une paroi la plus à l'extérieur de l'outil (5). Dans un outil de ce type (5), la gaine sous vide (160, 165, 170) sert à maintenir l'échantillon dans son état d'origine, c'est-à-dire tel qu'il a été extrait, par exemple sous sa forme monophasique (à température d'origine).
