Publication number: 20220040437Abstract: Some embodiments provide for an inspiratory limb for a breathing circuit that includes a first segment that comprises a first heater wire circuit and a second segment that comprises a second heater wire circuit. The inspiratory limb can include an intermediate connector that includes a connection circuit that electrically couples the first heater wire circuit to the second heater wire circuit. The inspiratory limb can be configured to operate in two modes wherein, in a first mode, electrical power passes through the first electrical connection to provide power to the first heater wire circuit without providing power to the second heater wire circuit, and in a second mode, electrical power pass through the first electrical connection to provide power to both the first heater wire circuit and the second heater wire circuit.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2021Publication date: February 10, 2022Inventors: Matthew Liam Buswell, Helen Cuddy, Thomas James Edwards, Gavin Walsh Millar, Helgard Oosthuysen, Andre van Schalkwyk, Ian Lee Wai Kwan, Ping Si, Sinaa Alnashi, Kieran Michael Orchard, Ibrahim Al-Tiay, Elmo Benson Stoks, Charles Christopher North, Matthew Robert Wilson, Paul James Tonkin

Publication number: 20210353895Abstract: The disclosure relates to medical tubes and methods of manufacturing medical tubes. The tube may be a composite structure made of two or more distinct components that are spirally wound to form an elongate tube. For example, one of the components may be a spirally wound elongate hollow body, and the other component may be an elongate structural component also spirally wound between turns of the spirally wound hollow body The tube need not be made from distinct components, however. For instance, an elongate hollow body formed (e.g., extruded) from a single material may be spirally wound to form an elongate tube. The elongate hollow body itself may in transverse cross-section have a thin wall portion and a relatively thicker or more rigid reinforcement portion. The tubes can be incorporated into a variety of medical circuits or may be employed for other medical uses.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2021Publication date: November 18, 2021Inventors: Christopher Jaye Norman AMADIO, Elmo Benson STOKS, Charles Christopher NORTH, Mahran Maumoon SUJAU, Joshua Daniel STROOBANT, Gavin Walsh MILLAR, Matthew Liam BUSWELL, Ibrahim AL-TIAY, David Leon MCCAULEY, Andre VAN SCHALKWYK, Katja MUNKELT, Matthew Robert WILSON, Helgard OOSTHUYSEN, Sanjay Parag PATEL, Dominique Richard D'ANDREA, Grant Martin DOVER, Dean Antony BARKER, Jonathan David HARWOOD

Publication number: 20210046272Abstract: A breathing circuit for use in respiratory therapy includes an inspiratory tube and an expiratory tube. The inspiratory tube of the breathing circuit has a smooth bore. The expiratory tube of the breathing circuit is corrugated. Preferably, the expiratory tube is vapor permeable. Using the combination of a smooth bore inspiratory tube with a corrugated expiratory tube has the unexpected result of improving the performance of the breathing circuit and its components.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2019Publication date: February 18, 2021Inventors: Matthew Liam BUSWELL, Gavin Walsh MILLAR, James William STANTON

Publication number: 20200338295Abstract: A medical tube comprises a tail to connect an embedded wire to an electrical component. The tail may comprise a flattened portion and an exposed portion to facilitate attachment of the medical tube to an electrical component. The tail may comprise a second flattened portion. One or more wires, such as a heater wire or a sensor wire, may be embedded in the medical tube. The medical tube may comprise a connector that comprises a printed circuit board to which the one or more wires is attached. The connector may comprise features to support the printed circuit board, aid in assembly of the one or more wires to the connector, and protect electrical components against liquid ingress.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2020Publication date: October 29, 2020Inventors: Katja Munkelt, Christopher Gareth Sims, Seth Mclay Frater, Matthew Liam Buswell, Gavin Walsh Millar, David Leon McCauley, Malcolm David Smith, Brendan Thomas Vercoelen, Thomas Jacques Fernand Maeckelberghe, Kiel Anthony McCool, Thomas James Edwards
