Patent number: 12558480Abstract: A portable electronic fluid dispensing system can provide pre-filled, pre-primed IV bag assemblies comprising therapeutic fluids. The same fluid line and connector in the IV bag assembly can be used to fill the IV bag as is used to withdraw fluid from the IV bag and infuse such fluid into the patient. The connection points along the IV assembly, such as the connection between the IV bag and a drip chamber, or between an IV bag and tubing, or between a drip chamber and tubing, or between tubing and a closeable, resealable connector, can each be resistant to disconnection by a user. The healthcare practitioner at the patient care site is not required to attach any of these components to each other, and the healthcare practitioner at the patient care site is not required to introduce a spike into a spike port on the IV bag.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2022Date of Patent: February 24, 2026Assignee: ICU Medical, Inc.Inventors: Jay Hachey, Thomas McCall, Jason Woodbury

Publication number: 20260021244Abstract: A medical fluid transfer system can include a base, a first channel pump, a second channel pump, and a controller. The first channel pump is configured to convey a first medical fluid from a first fluid source to a fluid receiver. The second channel pump is configured to convey a second medical fluid from a second fluid source to the fluid receiver. Each of the first channel pump and the second channel pump includes a respective cassette with a pump reservoir, a plunger body, and a pump driver. A method of operating a medical fluid transfer system can include transferring a first medical fluid and a second medical fluid to a fluid receiver at least partially based on a user input representing a first predetermined volume of the first medical fluid and a second predetermined volume of the second medical fluid to be transferred to a fluid receiver.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2025Publication date: January 22, 2026Inventor: Jay Hachey

Publication number: 20250375569Abstract: A medical fluid transfer system can include a base, a first channel pump, a second channel pump, and a controller. Each of the first channel pump and the second channel pump are configured to be fluidly connected to a fluid source containing a medical fluid and are configured to convey a subset of the medical fluid from the fluid source to a fluid receiver. A method of operating a medical fluid transfer system can include withdrawing a medical fluid from a fluid source into a first channel pump, transferring the medical fluid from the first channel pump to the fluid receiver, withdrawing the medical fluid from the fluid source into a second channel pump, and transferring the medical fluid from the second channel pump to the fluid receiver.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2025Publication date: December 11, 2025Inventor: Jay Hachey

Publication number: 20250161590Abstract: Bubble traps for use in medical fluid lines and medical fluid bubble trap systems are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the bubble trap is configured to trap gas (e.g., air) that flows into the bubble trap from a fluid line. In some embodiments, the bubble trap includes an inlet and an outlet and a chamber between the inlet and the outlet. For example, in some embodiments, the bubble trap is configured to inhibit gas from flowing into the outlet once gas flows into the chamber from the inlet. In some embodiments, the bubble trap is in fluid communication with a source container, a destination container, and/or a patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2025Publication date: May 22, 2025Inventors: Thomas F. Fangrow, Jay Hachey
