US Patent:
7713236, May 11, 2010
Filed:
Apr 27, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/115452
Inventors:
Richard G. Cartledge - Hollywood FL, US
John M. Iaconis - Monroeville PA, US
Michael L. Koltz - Ormond Beach FL, US
Bradford J. Rainier - DeLand FL, US
Assignee:
Smisson-Cartledge Biomedical LLC - Macon GA
International Classification:
A61M 1/00
US Classification:
604122
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for increasing the temperature of a fluid being infused into a patient's body while the infusion is taking place. The present invention also provides for improved monitoring of air in the infusion system such to prevent the introduction of air into the patient's body receiving the fluid infusion. The present invention also provides for a system pump which provides a variable flow rate that serves a vast amount of infusion needs and purposes. A disposable cartridge in accordance with the present invention will allow for the efficient transfer of heat energy to the fluid being infused into the patient's body. The cartridge will further ensure that deleterious amounts of air will not be introduced into the patient's body.

US Patent:
7896834, Mar 1, 2011
Filed:
Aug 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/835095
Inventors:
Richard G. Cartledge - Fort Lauderdale FL, US
David C. Field - Snellville GA, US
William J. Jaecklein - Ormond Beach FL, US
Michael L. Koltz - Jacksonville FL, US
Bradford J. Rainier - DeLand FL, US
Roland T. Stafford - Ormond Beach FL, US
Assignee:
Smisson-Cartledge Biomedical LLC - Macon GA
International Classification:
A61M 31/00
US Classification:
604 67
Abstract:
A pump system selectably controls the temperature, flow rate, flow volume, and flow pressure of a fluid being infused into a patient's body. The pump system includes a cartridge and components that removably connect with a pump housing and corresponding components, providing simple attachment of the cartridge to the pump housing. The pump housing includes a pressure sensor, a bubble detector, and a temperature sensor on a first side of the pump housing, and an engaging actuator and a central controller. The cartridge includes on a first side a heat exchanger, a pressure receptor correspondingly aligned with the pressure sensor, and a detector interface correspondingly aligned with the bubble detector and temperature sensor. Upon aligning the cartridge with the pump housing and actuating the engaging actuator, the pressure receptor communicates with the pressure sensor and the detector interface aligns with the bubble detector and temperature sensor.

US Patent:
7975491, Jul 12, 2011
Filed:
Aug 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/835125
Inventors:
Richard G. Cartledge - Fort Lauderdale FL, US
David C. Field - Snellville GA, US
Michael L. Koltz - Jacksonville FL, US
Frederick J. York - Longwood FL, US
Assignee:
Smisson-Cartledge Biomedical LLC - Macon GA
International Classification:
F25B 21/02
US Classification:
62 33, 62 32, 165185
Abstract:
A heat exchange system selectably controls the temperature of a fluid being delivered to a patient's body by a pump device. The heat exchange system includes a thermal element and a heat exchanger that is removably coupled under pressure to the thermal element. The heat exchanger includes a first half made from thermally conductive material that correspondingly mates with the thermal element, a second half made from thermally conductive material opposite the first half, and an internal heat exchange zone existing between the first half and the second half, wherein fluid flows therethrough. The thermal element of the heat exchange system may controllably and safely warm and/or cool the fluid prior to delivery.

12/036148
Inventors:
Gerould W. Norman - Jacksonville FL, US
Craig L. Drager - Jacksonville FL, US
Michael L. Koltz - Jacksonville FL, US
Assignee:
Medtronic Xomed, Inc. - Jacksonville FL
International Classification:
F04B 43/12
F04B 45/06
US Classification:
417474, 417 53, 417476, 4174771, 4174772, 4174773, 4174778, 4174779, 41747712, 604153, 604154
Abstract:
A tube-positioning system for loading tubing into a peristaltic pump includes a holder and a first tube segment. The holder includes a shell configured to slidably fit onto an exterior of a pump and a pair of guides extending upward from opposite side walls of the shell. The first tube segment has a fixed length and extends between the pair of guides with each end of the first tube segment secured within one of the respective guides.
