Patent number: 11883324Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the treatment of a body cavity or lumen are described where a heated fluid and/or gas may be introduced through a catheter and into treatment area within the body contained between one or more inflatable/expandable members. The catheter may also have optional pressure and temperature sensing elements which may allow for control of the pressure and temperature within the treatment zone and also prevent the pressure from exceeding a pressure of the inflatable/expandable members to thereby contain the treatment area between these inflatable/expandable members. Optionally, a chilled, room temperature, or warmed fluid such as water may then be used to rapidly terminate the treatment session.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2017Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Channel Medsystems, Inc.Inventors: Daniel R. Burnett, Ric Cote, William W. Malecki, Brian M. Neil, David Beaulieu, Benjamin D. Voiles

Publication number: 20240016533Abstract: Apparatus and methods for regulating cryogenic treatments are disclosed which comprise devices and methods for delivering controlled treatment of a cryoablative agent. In one variation, such devices may generally comprise an elongate probe having a distal tip and a flexible length, at least one infusion lumen positioned through or along the elongate probe, wherein the infusion lumen defines one or more openings along its length, and a liner expandably enclosing the probe. An inflow reservoir or canister valve may be fluidly coupled with a reservoir or canister containing the cryoablative agent and a modulation control unit may also be fluidly coupled with the inflow reservoir or canister valve and in fluid communication with the at least one infusion lumen. Additionally, a warming element may also be thermally coupled with the reservoir or canister.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2023Publication date: January 18, 2024Applicant: Channel Medsystems, Inc.Inventors: Daniel R. BURNETT, Ric COTÉ, William W. MALECKI, Brian M. NEIL, David BEAULIEU, Benjamin D. VOILES, Vincent LOPRESTI

Publication number: 20230078672Abstract: Exhaust removal apparatus and methods for cryogenic treatment are described herein. The apparatus may generally include a housing having an inlet for fluidly coupling to a source of water and an outlet for fluidly coupling to a drain, and a suction chamber in fluid communication with the housing, wherein the suction chamber is further configured to be detachably coupled to an exhaust collection reservoir having a volume of exhaust gas. Introduction of water through the inlet generates a pressure reduction within the suction chamber such that the volume of exhaust gas is drawn from the exhaust collection reservoir and into the housing for dissolving into the water and out through the drain.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2022Publication date: March 16, 2023Applicant: Channel Medsystems, Inc.Inventors: William MALECKI, Vincent LOPRESTI, Ulric E.

Publication number: 20210064023Abstract: A method of managing a fleet of information carrier vehicles is provided with each of the vehicles being autonomous in energy and arranged to move and roll on a ground of a field. Each of the information carrier vehicles includes a data communicator for communicating data to a communicating access point common to the fleet of information carrier vehicles, and a tool for performing a work. The method includes, at vehicle level: generation of data of interest, optionally locally preprocessing of data of interest, recording data of interest or pre-processed, transmission of recorded data, movement commands reception and applying the received movement commands. The method includes, at a remote processing device for the vehicles: processing received data to determine a strategy for controlling the vehicle fleet, and communication to the fleet vehicles of movement commands determined from the driving strategy.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2019Publication date: March 4, 2021Applicant: VITIROVERInventor: Xavier DAVID BEAULIEU
