Publication number: 20230181866Abstract: A humidification system can include a heater base, a chamber, and a breathing circuit. The heater base includes a heater plate positioned in a recessed region, and a heat conductive portion of the chamber is configured to contact the heater plate. The heater base includes a guard configured to control movement of the chamber into and out of the recessed region. The guard includes an anti-racking mechanism. The chamber includes an inlet port, an outlet port. A downward extension extends into the chamber from the inlet port, and a baffle is disposed at a lower end of the downward extension. A component of the breathing circuit can include a conduit hanging end cap for shipping and storage. The end cap can include a hanging component to allow the breathing circuit component to be hung from a medical stand. The system can detect when breathing circuits are connected in reverse.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: John James JACKSON, Barry Shack MANON, Victor Rosales CORRALES, Stefan Leo VAN WORKUM, Michael John ANDRESEN, Stephen David EVANS, Mark Samuel HAMILTON, Paul Fleming BUCKLEY, Jason Allan KLENNER, Hamish OSBORNE, Samuel Graham BOGGS, James William STANTON, Joseph Nathaniel GRIFFITHS, Jonathan Andrew George LAMBERT, Nicholas Edward VAUGHAN, James Owen KEHOE, Francisco Ernesto DE LA PEÑA DE LA FUENTE, Nicholas James Michael MCKENNA, Rachael PORTER, Simon Mordechai STAM, David Robert KEMPS, Edwin Joseph LYONS, Madeleine Bess MARTIN, Ada Yiwen SHOU, Huang-Ku LIU

Publication number: 20210220601Abstract: A humidification system comprises a first sensor and a second sensor. The first and second sensors are adapted to sense flow characteristics within the system. The first and second sensors are isolated from the flow by barriers formed by respective first and second sealing members. The sealing members extend through apertures formed in the system and have a portion that contacts the sensing elements of the respective first and second sensors. A cartridge can hold the sensors and provide repeatable penetration depths into a flow passage of the system. A medical tube has a composite structure made of two or more distinct components that are spirally wound to form an elongate tube. One component can be a spirally wound elongate hollow body; the other component can be an elongate structural component spirally wound between turns of the spirally wound hollow body.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2021Publication date: July 22, 2021Inventors: Elmo Benson Stoks, Charles Christopher North, Hamish Adrian Osborne, Abhishek Vadnerkar, James Owen Kehoe, Po-Yen Liu, John James Jackson, Igor Yevgeniiovich Shvarchuck, Mahran Maumoon Sujau, Sanjay Parag Patel, Man Kit Jacky Cheung
