Patent number: 10182754Abstract: A fluid sampling ports for withdrawing and administering fluids from or to a sampling site. The sampling valve is interconnected in a line to and/or from a patient with the line carrying a fluid that one wishes to sample. In a particular example, the sampling valve or port is interconnected in an arterial line and/or serves as a dialysis fluid sampling port.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2014Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Assignee: BIOMETRIX LTD.Inventors: Yair Mendels, Matan Shamir

Patent number: 9357950Abstract: An in-line sampling system that includes a sampling valve and a syringe for selectively introducing a fluid to and aspirating a fluid from a downstream fluid conduit connected to a catheterized patient. The syringe has a fluid chamber into which fluid is aspirated, a volume regulator for adjusting the volume, a fluid line through which fluid flows through the syringe to a downstream fluid conduit. The syringe also has a valve mechanism for selectively controlling fluid flow along the fluid line and selectively shifting the volume regulator to adjust the volume of the fluid chamber. A housing provides for the fluid chamber and mounts the fluid line, valve mechanism and volume regulator.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: BIOMETRIX LTD.Inventors: Yair Mendels, Elad Uziel, Shamir Matan, Ilya Revzin, Eldad Gabriel Rubinstein, Vered Aframian, Yehonatan Gershuni, Orga Marco

Patent number: 9074920Abstract: A bedside apparatus and method designed to collect and monitor liquids output from a catheterized patient including an electronic unit and one of a plurality of defined disposable collecting and measuring rigid vessels that may differ in shape and size. Each defined vessel has at least one inlet to connect to a catheter outputting liquid from a patient in order to collect the liquid in the defined vessel. The defined vessel has at least one outlet valve to control draining of liquid from the vessel. An electronic unit has a configuration to receive the defined vessel and to securely mount and hold the defined vessel in a fixed relationship. The electronic unit further has a liquid level sensing device located in juxtaposition to the defined vessel to sense the level of liquid contained in the vessel.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2010Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: Biometrix Ltd.Inventors: Yair Mendels, Ilya Revzin, Vered Manny-Aframian, Eldad Gabriel Rubinstein

Publication number: 20150051536Abstract: Apparatus is provided for a reversible connection catheter comprising in combination a hub and a valve housing portion. The hub is composed of a tapered molded body having a narrow tapered end and an enlarged other end. The narrow tapered end has integrated therein a double lumen catheter projecting therefrom. Two bores extend through the hub each communicating with a distinctive lumen in the catheter. The valve housing portion is composed of a distal segment with two spaced through first openings, a proximal segment with two spaced through second openings and a resilient gasket portion with two spaced first female luers mounted between the proximal and distal segments. The valve housing further has a third opening in said proximal segment positioned between the first and second openings and a second female luer on the resilient gasket portion in alignment with said third opening to serve as a flushing valve. A structural member operatively holds the hub and valve housing portion together.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2013Publication date: February 19, 2015Inventor: YAIR MENDELS

Publication number: 20140194778Abstract: An in-line sampling syringe for selectively introducing and aspirating a fluid from a downstream fluid conduit connected to a catheterized patient. The syringe includes a housing with a distal component defining a distal chamber having a proximal opening and a distal outlet port to be coupled to a downstream fluid conduit; and a pair of proximal wall components assembled together in an airtight manner defining a proximal chamber having a proximal opening for coupling to an external source of fluid and a distal opening that is coupled to the proximal opening of the distal component. The syringe also includes an elongated volume regulator positioned inside the housing. A curved element is positioned at and in alignment with the distal outlet and retention elements are defined in the distal component at the distal outlet port to mount and retain the curved element at the distal outlet port while enabling flow around the curved element relative to the distal outlet port.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2014Publication date: July 10, 2014Applicant: BIOMETRIX LTD.Inventors: Elad UZIEL, Yair MENDELS
