  • Patent number: 10780221
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention are related to a method and a system for administrating an infusion liquid pulse. The system includes a tubing system having an inlet connected to an external reservoir adapted to contain infusion fluids and an outlet connected to a catheter. The tubing system includes a check valve proximate to the inlet and an anti-siphon valve proximate to the outlet. The system further includes an automatic pulse flow generation device. The automatic pulse flow generation device includes an internal reservoir and a bidirectional pump configured to pump infusion fluid from the external reservoir to the internal reservoir and further pump an infusion fluid pulse from the internal reservoir to be injected by the catheter, the infusion liquid pulse has a volume of at least 2 ml and a velocity of at least 5 ml/min.

  • Patent number: 9572931
    Abstract: A device, system and method for self-administration of a bolus dosage of a treatment fluid are disclosed. A device according to embodiments of the present invention may comprise a housing comprising an external lever operable by a user, an internal lever, for applying pressure to a compression spring, which in turn may press a piston to pressurize treatment fluid contained in an internal reservoir, in a high flow rate, through a small diameter catheter, into a patient body. A system according to some embodiment may comprise a device having an external reservoir connected to an inlet thereof, and a catheter connected to an outlet thereof. A method according to some embodiments may comprise actuating levers of the device, compressing a partially loaded compression spring contained in a spring cage, and pressurizing fluid contained in an internal reservoir of the device to be released through an outlet of the device.

  • Publication number: 20130123703
    Abstract: A device, system and method are disclosed for providing infused medication in a continuous pulse flow at a defined volume and frequency while maintaining a stable and accurate average flow rate, in order to provide improved nerve bathing and thus continuous pain blockage. The system may comprise an external reservoir, such as an infusion bag, and a pulsed flow generation device for generating a controlled pulse of fluid received from the external reservoir and retained in an internal reservoir such as a disposable syringe. One method according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise receiving a fluid medication, such as an anesthetic substance, from an external reservoir, containing the fluid in an internal reservoir, and when the volume of fluid reaches a certain predefined value, releasing at least one pulse of fluid to create nerve bathing at a treated area.

  • Patent number: 8381762
    Abstract: The invention relates to the metering of fluids at low flow rates. More particularly, the invention provides a flow regulator for flows as low as about ½ ml per hour, provided with locking means for any set value within its range. The flow regulator comprises: an inner non-revolving core element, an outer housing, having a hollow base section and being revolvably supported co-axially with the core element, first and second chambers disposed between the core element and the outer housing, each chamber having an inlet and an outlet, the outlet of the first chamber and the inlet of the second chamber being connected by a flow restriction path, a diaphragm separating the two chambers and sealing an inlet to a discharge tube when pressure in the first chamber is higher than pressure in the second chamber, and a circular spring placed in the secondary chamber below the diaphragm and around the discharge tube.
