| 5716194 | System for increasing flow uniformity A pumping mechanism moving in movement increments is controlled to space those movement increments in direct proportion to the volume resulting from each movement increment. In a further aspect, movement increments are grouped to result in approximately e... | 02/10/1998 |
| 5617867 | Tonometer mounting device A device for mounting a tonometry sensor upon a patient's wrist includes a base portion that is specifically adapted to generally conform to the patient's wrist while providing a stable placement of the tonometry sensor relative to a preselected artery. A... | 04/08/1997 |
| 5616124 | Infusion system with air-in-line clear function An infusion system with an air-in-line sensor is provided with improved apparatus and method for quickly and easily clearing small quantities of undissolved gas such as air from the sensor detection field. The infusion system includes an infusion pump hav... | 04/01/1997 |
| 5609576 | Fluid flow impedance monitoring system Impedance to fluid flow in a fluid delivery line is measured. Two techniques are used depending on the flow rate selected. For high flow rates, the pump is controlled to vary the flow rate and the change in pressure is divided by the change in flow to dir... | 03/11/1997 |
| 5601420 | Interlock, latching, and retaining mechanism for an infusion pump An interlock, latching and retaining mechanism for use in an infusion system, embodying a latch arm mounted to a rotatable shaft having a plurality of cams and gears attached thereto, a rectangular faceplate with a plurality of apertures formed therethrou... | 02/11/1997 |
| 5575632 | Engineered pumping segment An engineered pumping segment for facilitating efficient and accurate peristaltic pumping of fluids, providing regulation of fluid flow and providing an effective interface for sensing fluid line pressure in a peristaltic pump system. The engineered pumpi... | 11/19/1996 |
