Abstract: Connector assemblies and methods of replacing components in an extra-corporeal circuit (ECC) system are disclosed. A connector assembly for use in an ECC system includes a tubular body having an inner surface defining a lumen extending through the tubular body with the lumen extending along a longitudinal axis, a first connection interface in fluid communication with the lumen, a second connection interface in fluid communication with the lumen, and a plurality of closure mechanisms, each closure mechanism being configured to occlude the lumen.

Abstract: The portable sensor device is connected with the arterial pressure measurement catheter by way of a pressure hose. The electronic pressure sensor is accommodated in the sensor housing. The analog sensor signal is output to the patient monitor by way of a cable. Aside from the channel for the analog sensor signal, additional channels are provided for communication between sensor device and patient monitor. A bidirectional channel serves for writing to and querying the memory module, in which patient data, such as age, gender, height/weight, etc., can be stored. The three-way cock possesses the settings “M” (measurement operation) and “0” (calibration measurement), in which the contactor is brought into connection with the contact. The switching contact is transmitted to the patient monitor, which thereby automatically recognizes zeroing of the sensor.
