Patent number: 11540508Abstract: An organ perfusion system comprises: a perfusion fluid circuit (16) arranged to circulate perfusion fluid through the organ; a surrogate organ (126) arranged to be connected into the circuit in place of the organ so that the circuit can circulate fluid through the surrogate organ; and organ sensing means arranged to distinguish between the presence of the organ in the circuit and the presence of the surrogate organ in the circuit. The sensing means may comprise one or more pressure sensors (136, 137, 138), or a flow meter (125). Further aspects relate to adjusting the content of at least one component, such as oxygen or a nutrient, in the perfusion fluid. Bubble detection means (113), and means (74) to measure the amount of fluid secreted by or leaked from the organ, may also be provided.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2016Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: Organox LimitedInventors: Stuart Brian William Kay, Sebastien Antoine Yves Cuvelier, Jonathan Richard Oakley, David George Robinson, Philip David Canner, Peter Alan Salkus, Leslie James Russell, Peter John Friend, Constantin C.

Patent number: 10758687Abstract: An apparatus for aerosolized powder delivery includes first and second chambers containing gas at first and second pressures, respectively, above atmospheric pressure. A powder is contained within the first or second chamber. The first chamber has a first external wall and a separating wall shared with the second chamber. The first external wall or the separating wall is configured to rupture if the pressure difference across it becomes equal to or greater than a threshold pressure difference. Specifically, the apparatus is configured so that the difference between the second pressure and atmospheric pressure is greater than the threshold pressure difference. Initially, the difference between the second and first pressures is less than the pressure difference required to rupture the separating wall, and the difference between the first pressure and atmospheric pressure is less than the pressure difference required to rupture the first external wall.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2014Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: DS-Technology GmbHInventors: David Stuart Harris, Philip David Canner, Jonathan Guillaume Jamin, Jamie Alan Greenwood

Publication number: 20180161526Abstract: A spray device (6) for the delivery of a therapeutic agent, the spray device (6) comprises a nozzle (1) having a first port (3) to input a gas source of positive gas pressure; a second port (4) to output gas from the gas source; and a Coanda surface (5) and a third port (2) between, and in fluid connection with, the first port (3) and the second port (4). The nozzle (1) is arranged such that, in use, a gas including a therapeutic agent enters the first port (3), the therapeutic agent having sufficient momentum to overcome forces from the gas flow over the Coanda surface (5) such that the therapeutic agent is ejected at the third port (2) in the form of a spray.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2016Publication date: June 14, 2018Inventors: Philip David CANNER, David Stuart HARRIS

Publication number: 20170340843Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for use in aerosolized delivery of a powder, and comprises a first chamber containing gas at a first pressure higher than atmospheric pressure, and a second chamber containing gas at a second pressure higher than atmospheric pressure. The apparatus also comprises a powder, contained within the first or second chamber. The first chamber has a first external wall and a separating wall, the separating wall being shared with the second chamber. The first external wall or the separating wall is configured to rupture if the pressure difference across it becomes equal to or greater than a threshold pressure difference. In particular, the apparatus is configured so that the difference between the second pressure and atmospheric pressure is greater than the threshold pressure difference.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2014Publication date: November 30, 2017Applicant: DS-Technology GmbHInventors: David Stuart HARRIS, Philip David CANNER, Jonathan Guillaume JAMIN, Jamie Alan GREENWOOD
