Abstract: A hydrophobic filter for filtering an airflow or another gaseous flow in a medical application has a housing encompassing a filter chamber, an inlet port arranged on the housing and forming an inlet opening, an outlet port arranged on the housing and forming an outlet opening, and a hydrophobic structure extending along a plane of extension and separating the filter chamber into an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber. The inlet opening opens into the inlet chamber and the outlet opening opens into the outlet chamber. Herein, the outlet opening opens into the outlet chamber at a first location when viewed along the plane of extension and the inlet opening opens into the inlet chamber at a second location different from the first location when viewed along the plane of extension.

Abstract: The modular mould (1) for forming an orthopaedic spacer made of medical cement defines a moulding cavity delimited by a moulding surface (3, 3?, 3?) and configured for impressing a predetermined shape on said medical cement and realising said orthopaedic spacer. The mould (1, 1?) comprises a first sector (7a, 7a?, 7a?), defining a first portion of said surface, and a second sector (7b, 7b?) defining a second portion of the surface, the first and the second portion of the surface being variable, so as to obtain spacers having variable dimensions.

Abstract: The modular mould (1) for forming an orthopaedic spacer made of medical cement defines a moulding cavity (2) delimited by a moulding surface (3) configured for impressing a predetermined shape on the medical cement and realising the orthopaedic spacer. The mould (1) comprises a first sector (7a), defining at least a first portion (8) of the surface (3), and a second sector (7b) defining at least a second portion (12) of the surface (3). The mould (1) comprises at least a first forming insert (14) insertable in a housing (13) fashioned in at least one of said sectors (7a, 7b) and comprises a respective portion (8, 12) of the surface (3), said respective portion (8, 12) of the surface (3) having an elongate shape which is configured for forming an elongate portion of said orthopaedic spacer.
