Abstract: A fluid injector system for use in administering to a patient a fluid in an injection protocol in connection with a diagnostic imaging procedure includes at least one display and a control device. The control device is programmed to determine, for each of the injection protocols performed by the fluid injector system, a component status for the at least one disposable component. The component status indicates whether use of the at least one disposable component was compliant with instructions for use applicable to the at least one disposable component. The control device is further programmed to enable the at least one display to display a compliance report. The compliance report includes one or more visual indicators providing visual feedback about compliance with the instructions for use based on the component status determined for each of the injection protocols performed using the fluid injector system.

Abstract: A single-use connector configured to be removably connected to a reusable connector includes a hollow, tubular housing having an open proximal side opposite a distal side along a longitudinal length of the housing and at least one guard member connected to the tubular housing. The at least one guard member is configured to transition between an open position, in which the single-use connector can be connected to the reusable connector, and a closed position in which the guard member prevents the single-use connector from being connected to the reusable connector. Disconnecting the single-use connector from the reusable connector causes the at least one guard member to transition from the open position to the closed position. A single-use disposable set (SUDS) including a single-use connector and at least use guard member for preventing reconnection of the connector to a reusable connector or fluid port is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method and kit for repairing a gas leak in a pipe containing natural gas. The natural gas repair kit includes a leak sealant, a pressure sealant, and an encapsulator. The method for repairing the gas leak includes the act of applying a leak sealant over the leak in the pipe. The method further includes the act of wrapping a pressure sealant around the pipe near the leak. The pressure sealant should enclose and contact the leak sealant. Additionally, an encapsulator should be wrapped around the pipe near the leak. The encapsulator should contact the pressure sealant and the pipe.
