Publication number: 20230390014Abstract: A drape for a piece of equipment used during a medical procedure may be formed of a flexible sheet of polymeric material. The flexible sheet can have a basin portion shape-indexed to a basin or reservoir of the piece of equipment over which the drape is intended to be draped. The flexible sheet can also have a side sheet portion connected to the basin portion. The side sheet portion can drape down the basin or reservoir of the piece of equipment over which the drape is draped. The basin portion of the flexible sheet can be collapsible. As a result, the drape can be collapsed into planar package for storage. Upon being removed from the package, the basin portion of the drape can be expanded to conform to the walls of the basin of the piece of equipment over which the drape is deployed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Heidi Frances Hendrix, David Richard Rawlings, Michelle Wilson

Publication number: 20210213212Abstract: A weighing system for medical applications may include a basin that has a base and a sloped sidewall that collectively form a bounded cavity with open top surface that receives and holds the material to be weighed. The basin may be free floating above the weighing device within a restricted range of travel. In some examples, the weighing system includes a thermal treatment device to adjust the temperature of the material in the basin. The rate at which heat is delivered to the basin may vary depending on the weight of the contents in the basin.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2021Publication date: July 15, 2021Inventors: Heidi Frances Hendrix, David Richard Rawlings, Sean Corrigan, David B. Richmond, David Davis

Publication number: 20210162140Abstract: A surgical fluid thermal treatment system can be used during a procedure to heat or cool surgical fluid, e.g., prior to introducing the fluid into the body of a patient. In some examples, the system includes an open basin into which fresh surgical fluid is dispensed and a heater that heats the fluid in the basin. The system may also include a volume measurement device that measures the volume of fluid in the basin. The system may have a user interface that a user interacts with to check fresh fluid into the basin. The user may also interact with the user interface to check medical tools into the basin and check medical tools out of the basin. A controller associated with the system can track the volume of fluid removed from the basin during the course of a procedure.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2021Publication date: June 3, 2021Inventors: Heidi Frances Hendrix, David Richard Rawlings, Sean Corrigan, Tomas Matusaitis
