Publication number: 20240058561Abstract: A medical tube transports gases to and/or from a patient. The medical tube includes a bead wrapped around a longitudinal axis of the medical tube. The bead forms a first portion of a lumen wall of the medical tube. The medical tube also includes a film wrapped around the longitudinal axis of the medical tube. A first portion of the film overlies the bead, and a second portion of the film forms a second portion of the lumen wall. The lumen wall, formed by the bead and the second portion of the film forms a substantially smooth bore. The medical tube can be reusable or reprocessable.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Telge Nishan Chaturanga PEIRIS, Paul Joseph MOODY, Elmo Benson STOKS, Karla Maree DEY

Publication number: 20230310786Abstract: Disclosed is a fluid trap for use with, or comprising part of, a respiratory therapy system, and in particular comprising part of, or configured to be connected to, a breathing limb, such as an expiratory limb, of a respiratory therapy system. The fluid trap comprises a container configured to contain fluid received from an inlet; a closure, the closure and container being configured to be removeably mounted together to close the container; and a valve configured to be removeably mounted on at least one of the container and the closure, and configured to be in a closed condition which prevents fluid from flowing through the inlet when the closure is not mounted on the container, the valve being further configured to be in an open position which allows fluid from the inlet into the container when the closure is mounted on the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Nathan Lee Gray, Telge Nishan Chaturanga Peiris, Paul Joseph Moody

Publication number: 20210322708Abstract: A medical circuit comprising a medical tube and a connector transports gases to and/or from a patient via a patient interface. The connector has a plurality of rigid components at least partially surrounded by an overmold. The medical tube has a first elongate member and a second elongate member. The first elongate member is substantially hollow. A vent can be coupled to the first elongate member such that it maintains gaseous communication with the lumen. The vent may provide a pathway between the lumen and the atmosphere, such that gases may move into and/or out of the lumen during cleaning. The vent may also provide a barrier to liquid and/or substance ingress into the first elongate member during cleaning of the medical circuit. The medical circuit can be reusable.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2021Publication date: October 21, 2021Inventors: Paul Joseph MOODY, Sven Andreas MUNKELT, Katie FYFE, Telge Nishan Chaturanga PEIRIS, Kevin Blake POWELL, Bhavna PRENTICE

Patent number: 6082693Abstract: An inclination adjusting linkage arrangement is disclosed for an open care bed or infant warmer having a mattress supported on a mattress base cantilevered from a columnar or vertically disposed "back bone". The mattress base includes a box like frame over which a sheet is stretched to provide tensioned support for a mattress. Adjustment of the angle of inclination of the mattress base is made possible by the use of a non-parallel arm type system providing a virtual pivot point for the mattress base which may be positioned near the center of the mattress.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 1998Date of Patent: July 4, 2000Assignee: Fisher & Paykel LimitedInventors: Mark Gregory Benson, Andrew Paul Maxwell Salmon, Christopher Peter Hutchinson, Paul Joseph Moody

Patent number: 5980449Abstract: An open care bed or infant warmer having a mattress supported on a mattress base cantilevered from a columnar or vertically disposed "back bone". The column carries an infrared radiant heater head at its upper end which directs heat down towards the mattress. The lower end of the column sits on a base of the infant warmer which is provided with castors for transporting the warmer. The mattress base comprises a box like frame over which a sheet is stretched to provide tensioned support for a mattress. The sides of the mattress base are provided with fold down side walls which are normally retained in a vertical position but are lowerable to a horizontal position, by free falling under the control of a friction controlled damping axle configuration. Adjustment of the angle of inclination of the mattress base is made possible by the use of a non-parallel arm type system providing a virtual pivot point for the mattress base which may be positioned near the center of the mattress.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 1997Date of Patent: November 9, 1999Assignee: Fisher & Paykel LimitedInventors: Mark Gregory Benson, Andrew Paul Maxwell Salmon, Christopher Peter Hutchinson, David Valletort Haysom, Richard Barry Doig, Paul Joseph Moody
