  • Publication number: 20240033399
    Abstract: A method of making a biocompatible composition for sealing tissue includes mixing a first fluid having a first reactive component (e.g., an electrophile) and a second fluid having a second reactive component (e.g., a nucleophile) to form a mixture and expressing the mixture. During expression, a pH modifying fluid (e.g., NaOH) is added to the mixture at a rate that changes. In one embodiment, a higher ratio of the pH modifying fluid is added to the mixture during a first expressing stage and a lower ratio of said pH modifying fluid is added to the mixture during a second expressing stage. During the first expressing stage, a mixing ratio of the pH modifying fluid, the first fluid and the second fluid is 0.7-1.4:1:1. During the second expressing stage, the mixing ratio of the pH modifying fluid, the first fluid and the second fluid is 0.12-0.24:1:1.

  • Patent number: 11517527
    Abstract: A medical device for making foam includes a syringe having a plunger for dispensing a liquid from a liquid dispensing port, and a mixing chamber including a mixing chamber inlet, a mixing chamber outlet, a liquid flow channel extending between the mixing chamber inlet and the mixing chamber outlet, and a gas inlet channel that intersects with the liquid flow channel. The system has a gas cartridge containing the gas, a first gas conduit connected with the syringe, and a second gas conduit connected with the gas inlet channel. An actuator is coupled with the gas cartridge for releasing the gas into the first and second gas conduits. The released gas in the first gas conduit forces the plunger toward the liquid dispensing port for dispensing the liquid from the liquid dispensing port and into the liquid flow channel while the released gas in the second gas conduit flows into the gas inlet channel of the mixing chamber for mixing with the liquid in the liquid flow channel.

  • Publication number: 20210321837
    Abstract: An adapter device for use with a toilet includes a base member and an attachment member on either end of the base member. The base member is an elongate member that is to extend across diametrically opposed sides of a toilet seat. The attachment members on either end of the base member include two fins that extend downward relative to the base member. The fins are to slidably engage around the sides of the toilet seat and thus prevent lateral movement of the attachment member and base member when the adapter device is placed on top of a toilet seat. The base member and the attachment member are to be positioned on the toilet seat so as to provide support to a perineum of a user.
