Intravenous Drug Access System

View page
US Patent:
6726672, Apr 27, 2004
Filed:
Jan 19, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/487105
Inventors:
Kevin B. Hanly - Mission Viejo CA
Frank OBrien - Rancho Palos Verdes CA
Salvadore F. Palomares - Rancho Santa Margarita CA
William S. Phillips - Mission Viejo CA
Bruce Hubrecht - Canyon Lake CA
William M. Porter - Carlsbad CA
Evelyn L. Foss - Lake Forest CA
Assignee:
ICU Medical, Inc. - San Clemente CA
International Classification:
A61B 1900
US Classification:
604414, 604408, 604415, 604905, 604 86, 604 615, 215247
Abstract:
An intravenous drug access system. In one embodiment of the invention, the drug access system includes an IV bag having an inlet port and an outlet port, whereby the inlet port is a female luer integral therewith. The integral female luer fitting may be fitted with a sealed end cap including a male luer insert with a closed end. An alternative embodiment of the present invention comprises a discrete pre-molded connector made with a spike at one end and a female luer fitting at the opposing end. The spike is used to penetrate a standard IV bag through a conventional inlet port.

Positive Flow Valve

US Patent:
6932795, Aug 23, 2005
Filed:
Jun 5, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/163719
Inventors:
George A. Lopez - Laguna Beach CA, US
David C. Arnold - Mission Viejo CA, US
Bruce M. Hubrecht - Canyon Lake CA, US
Alison D. Brummett - Corona Del Mar CA, US
Thomas J. Gustus - Costa Mesa CA, US
Dennis M. Bui - Alta Loma CA, US
Assignee:
ICU Medical, Inc. - San Clemente CA
International Classification:
A61M005/00
US Classification:
604249, 604256, 604246, 251142
Abstract:
A closed system, spikeless, positive-flow valve device includes a body defining an internal cavity. At the proximal end of the body is an opening which is preferably sufficiently large to receive an ANSI standard tip of a medical implement. The valve includes a plastic, resilient silicon seal which fills the upper cavity and opening with an oval seal cap having a slit. The opening presses the oval seal cap to keep the slit closed in the decompressed state. The slit opens as the nose of the medical implement compresses the seal into the cavity and the seal cap is free from the opening. The housing also includes a fluid space which facilitates fluid flow between the medical implement and a catheter tip. The fluid space within the valve automatically and reversibly increases upon insertion of the medical implement into the cavity and decreases upon withdrawal of the medical implement, such that a positive flow from the valve toward the catheter tip is effected upon withdrawal of the medical implement, thereby preventing a flow of blood from a patient into the catheter when the medical implement is removed from the valve.

Medical Connector With Closeable Luer Connector

View page
US Patent:
8647310, Feb 11, 2014
Filed:
May 4, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/100508
Inventors:
Bruce Hubrecht - Canyon Lake CA, US
Assignee:
ICU Medical, Inc. - San Clemente CA
International Classification:
A61M 5/315
US Classification:
604236, 2511492
Abstract:
Some embodiments relate to a luer connector comprising a housing having a hollow bore therethrough, a first end, and a second end, a male luer tip supported by the housing configured to rotate with respect to the housing, the luer tip having a first open end and a passageway through the luer tip in fluid communication with the first open end, and a substantially rigid internal member extending into the passageway of the luer tip toward the first open end of the luer tip. In some embodiments, at least one of the luer tip and the internal member can be axially moveable between a first closed position and a second open position relative to the other of the luer tip and the internal member. Further, the luer tip and the internal member can cooperate such that rotation of the luer tip in a first direction relative to the housing increases an axial displacement between the first open end of the luer tip and an end portion of the internal member.
