Abstract: A method and system for controlling flow of refrigerant through a medical device are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for delivering refrigerant to an expansion cavity portion of the medical device comprises a first path and a second path in communication with the expansion cavity portion. The system also includes a first PID controller in communication with a first proportional valve in the first path, the first PID controller being configured to operate the first proportional valve based on a pressure measurement in the first path; and a second PID controller in communication with a second proportional valve in the second path, the second controller being configured to operate the second proportional valve based on a pressure measurement in the second path or in the expansion cavity portion.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling the inflation, ablation, and deflation of a balloon catheter. The system includes a balloon catheter, a console, a pressurized gas or liquid inflation source, and an umbilical system to deliver pressurized coolant to the balloon catheter. The system may include controller that monitors the amount of pressure and volume within the balloon catheter. During inflation, the pressure and/or volume of fluid within the balloon is maintained at a target amount in order to provide sufficient mechanized pressure against the desired target region. The system limits the inflation pressure such that a safe quantity of gas would be released should a leak occur. If the amount falls below a certain threshold level, gas or fluid egress is presumed and the inflation process is halted.

Abstract: A catheter based medical device including controlled refrigerant dispersion is disclosed. The device includes a fluid injection tube that carries refrigerant from a coolant supply to the distal portion of the device. An open distal end or one or more orifices may be provided on the injection tube for the refrigerant to be expelled into an expandable chamber such as a balloon disposed on the distal portion of the catheter. The dispersion of the refrigerant from the injection tube may be controlled or manipulable to direct the refrigerant to one or more target locations.

Abstract: A prefabricated steel bridge or viaduct structure, which is formed essentially of three blocks fabricated and pre-assembled in factory, and assembled together to the construction site. Once the blocks mounted thereon the concrete pillars, a surface drain for evacuating water is installed thereof to be casted therein a concrete slab and after covered from asphalt with drip slope.
