Title: Disposable pulsed washing/suction devices and systems for orthopaedic surgery
Inventor: SANT WILLIAM
IPC: A61M3/02
Filed: 2019-02-01
Abstract: The invention concerns disposable pulsed washing/suction devices (100, 400, 600) and systems for orthopaedic surgery. The general principle of the invention starts from the need to provide irrigation and/or suction devices and systems, having a low environmental impact. For this purpose, it is desirable that the disposable elements of such devices and systems can be easily incinerated and/or recycled. To this end, the inventors have identified that the motor, pump and battery of these devices and systems should not be part of the disposable elements. The inventors have noted that in hospital operating theatres or similar environments, electromedical apparatuses are found which comprise a pump driven by a motor. These electromedical apparatuses are powered by the mains. The invention proposes irrigation and/or suction devices and systems which do not directly consume electrical power in order to ensure their operation, but which use the electrical power supply of electromedical apparatuses present in hospital operating theatres.

Abstract: A method for operating a fluid management system includes automatically detecting an unstable condition in the system, which may include detecting a large change in the supply fluid amount (indicative of a bag change), detecting a large change in the waste fluid amount (indicative of a bag change), or detecting a large difference between the amount of fluid dispensed as measured by the weight data and the amount of fluid dispensed as measured by the flow data (indicative of a blockage in the supply tubing). The method further includes adjusting the operating mode of the system during the unstable condition, which may include switching to using flow data rather than weight data to track the fluid deficit during a supply bag exchange, halting operation of an outflow pump during a waste container exchange, and/or halting operation of the system during a blockage in the supply tubing.
