  • Publication number: 20240181190
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a suction stylet assembly for endotracheal intubation. The assembly includes an elongated tubular member, the elongated tubular member having one or more apertures proximate to a first end, and a handle in communication with a second end of the elongated tubular member. The handle member includes a first passageway connecting the elongated tubular member to a hose fitting on the handle member, the hose fitting configured to receive a hose that provides suction in removing bodily fluids. The handle member further includes an aperture located on a side of the handle member, the aperture forming a second passageway through the handle member running between the side and the first passageway, the aperture configured to permit a user to selectively block the aperture, thereby selectively controlling suction provided between the hose fitting and the elongated tubular member.

  • Patent number: 10469082
    Abstract: An encapsulated magnet position switch includes a non-magnetic tubular body including a first end wall closing a first end of the tubular body and an oppositely positioned second end wall closing a second end of the tubular body. Multiple equally angularly spaced non-magnetic guide rails are connected to an inner wall of the tubular body between the first end wall and the second end wall. A spherical shaped magnetic ball is positioned within the tubular body and is retained between the first end wall and the second end wall. The magnetic ball is longitudinally guided by the multiple guide rails coaxial to a longitudinal axis of the tubular body. Multiple sensors are positioned along the tubular body and are connected to a Hall effect switch, the sensors sensing and signaling a longitudinal position of the magnetic ball within the tubular body.
