  • Patent number: 12251543
    Abstract: A syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel (12) having a proximal end and a distal end, a needle hub (20) supporting the needle and coupled to the distal end of the syringe barrel (12). A moveable shield (36) is included for sliding from a first position where the needle is exposed a first length, a second position where the needle is exposed a second length less than said first length, and a third position covering a distal end of the needle. A locking mechanism (48, 86) is included to retain the shield in the second position while enabling the shield to slide to the third position, and to lock the shield in the third position to prevent re-use of the syringe.

  • Patent number: 12233051
    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of treating a patient having primary hyperoxaluria or idiopathic hyperoxaluria comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of compound of the formula and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, and hydrates thereof to the patient. The variables, e.g. ring A, n, R, R3, R10, X, Y, and Z are defined herein. These compounds act as lactate dehydrogenase inhibitors and are useful inhibiting the conversion of glyoxylate to oxalate. When administered to a patient having a disease or disorder associated with elevated oxalate levels, such as PH type 1, type 2, or type 3 or idiopathic hyperoxaluria the compounds prevent or substantially reduce the amount and buildup of oxalate the patient's kidneys, bladder, urinary tract and other parts of the patient's body.

  • Publication number: 20250032697
    Abstract: A negative pressure wound therapy apparatus can include a housing, a negative pressure source supported by the housing and configured to aspirate fluid from a wound covered by a wound dressing, a switch positioned on an exterior surface of the housing, and a controller configured to operate the negative pressure source. The controller can be configured to, responsive to receiving a first user input via the switch, operate the negative pressure source to aspirate fluid from the wound at a first fluid flow rate. The controller can be configured to, responsive to receiving a second user input via the switch subsequent to receiving the first user input, operate the negative pressure source to aspirate fluid from the wound at a second fluid flow rate greater than the first fluid flow rate.

  • Publication number: 20250025622
    Abstract: A negative pressure wound therapy device can be configured to monitor motion and determine that the device is falling as well as duration and height of the fall. Flat falls and rotating falls can be accurately detected. The device can provide an indication of the fall, including deactivating therapy. The device can monitor the amount exudate removed from a wound and determine whether transition to a low-exudate rate negative pressure wound therapy and suggest such transition. The device can utilize proportional-inte-gral-derivative (PID) control loop to drive a negative pressure source of the device. The PID control loop can utilize different proportional gain and integral gain for different negative pressure setpoint to achieve target pressure quickly and without any large overshoots.
