  • Patent number: 11986361
    Abstract: An exemplary device is indicated for use in physically debriding thrombus fragments from a stent retriever, using hospital-grade saline, or heparinized saline, for example. This device may be used in the sterile field, during a mechanical thrombectomy procedure. An exemplary cleaning device for cleaning a stent retriever within a sterile surgical field may include a chamber configured to receive and enclose a stent retriever to be cleaned, at least one port configured for connection with a fluid source to enable inflow and/or outflow of a fluid to or from the chamber, and one or more support structures configured to support the stent retriever in a fixed position inside the chamber.

  • Patent number: 11841305
    Abstract: A system, device and method for deployment of one or more dust accumulation sensors receives a baseline measurement associated with no accumulation of dust in a target environment, receives a time-elapsed measurement associated with positive accumulation of dust in the target environment, determines a quantity of accumulated dust in the target environment based on the baseline measurement and the time-elapsed measurement, generates a spatial dust deposition distribution for the target environment based on the determined quantity of accumulated dust and determines a deployment for one or more dust accumulation sensors for the target environment based on the spatial dust deposition distribution.

  • Patent number: 11796440
    Abstract: Embodiments of a continuous dust accumulation monitoring system comprise an enclosure adapted for use in electrical hazardous locations, a sample area for collecting ambient dust, a dust accumulation sensor assembly installed in the enclosure configured to generate a signal based on the amount of ambient dust collected on the sample area and a circuit board within the enclosure configured to receive the signal from the dust accumulation sensor assembly. The continuous dust accumulation monitoring system may be connected to system control hardware.

  • Publication number: 20230011225
    Abstract: A continuous dust accumulation monitoring system, device and method monitors and measures dust accumulation via an enclosure and a machine vision subsystem which can include a digital camera. A dirty optics detection subsystem monitors optical clarity and can invoke a cleaning assembly to help maintain clarity of optics for monitoring and measuring dust accumulation.
