  • Patent number: 11877867
    Abstract: An physiological measurement device provides a device body having a base, legs extending from the base and an optical housing disposed at ends of the legs opposite the base. An optical assembly is disposed in the housing. The device body is flexed so as to position the housing over a tissue site. The device body is unflexed so as to attach the housing to the tissue site and position the optical assembly to illuminate the tissue site. The optical assembly is configured to transmit optical radiation into tissue site tissue and receive the optical radiation after attenuation by pulsatile blood flow within the tissue.

  • Publication number: 20070295651
    Abstract: A disposable mass transfer system includes a source of dialysis fluid, a waste fluid reservoir, at least one semi-permeable tubular membrane residing in at least one fluid flow channel carrying a flow of a dialysis fluid, and a configurable pump and tubing. The pump and tubing may be configured to pump fresh dialysis fluid into the fluid flow channel, or may be configured to re-circulate partially spent dialysis fluid through the fluid flow channel. The fluid flow channel may be the interior of a flexible sealed reservoir, or may be a semi-rigid or rigid tubular enclosure.
