  • Methods, devices, and systems for moving a fluid along a fluid path for treatment
    Patent number: 10598170
    Abstract: The devices and systems are medical fluid treatment therapies. The device and systems are configured and capable of operating based on small volumes of fluids. The devices and systems include a pump configured for small volume of a fluid. The pump may include a first conduit configured for inflow of the fluid; a second conduit configured for outflow of the fluid; a fluid chamber configured to move the fluid through the pump; a diaphragm configured to force the fluid through the fluid chamber by indirectly exerting force on the fluid chamber; and a connector configured to removably attach the pump to a motor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 4, 2014
    Date of Patent: March 24, 2020
    Assignees: Georgia Tech Research Corporation, Emory University, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Inc.

  • Fluid management system for accurate continuous hemofiltration in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
    Patent number: 8206594
    Abstract: A novel system and method for fluid management for accurate continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CWH) in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The fluid management or CWH system is automated and configured for operation as a stand alone unit and can be easily integrated with an ECMO system. The fluid management system is capable of producing either perfect or negative fluid balance between ultrafiltrate removal and replacement fluid delivery. The fluid management system can achieve electrolyte replacement over a range of flow rates needed to care for patients ranging from neonates to adults. Finally, the novel fluid management system preserves patient safety, maintains sterility during operation, is easy to operate, and is compact enough to fit near a patient's bed.
