Abstract

A therapy device for instillation of fluid to a tissue site is described. The therapy device includes a base having a cartridge receptacle and a support coupled to the base to secure the base to a pole. The therapy device also includes a cartridge configured to engage the base when positioned in the cartridge receptacle. The therapy device also includes a pump head disposed within the cartridge receptacle and configured to engage the cartridge for movement of fluid. The cartridge includes a body forming at least a portion of a fluid reservoir and a tube segment coupled to the body and in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir. The tube segment is configured to engage the pump head.

Claims (34)

1 .- 17 . (canceled)

18 . A solution cartridge for an instillation therapy device, the solution cartridge comprising:

a body forming at least a portion of a fluid reservoir;

a fill port fluidly coupled to the fluid reservoir and configured to receive fluid;

a seal coupled to the fill port; and

a tube segment coupled to the body and in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir, the tube segment configured to engage a pump head of a therapy device for movement of fluid from the fluid reservoir.

19 . The solution cartridge of claim 18 , further comprising a load cell segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and the fluid reservoir.

20 . The solution cartridge of claim 18 , further comprising an ultra-sonic inspection segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and a tissue site.

21 . The solution cartridge of claim 18 , wherein the body comprises a lid configured to form at least a portion of a fluid reservoir.

22 . The solution cartridge of claim 18 , wherein the body comprises a lid configured to form at least a portion of a fluid reservoir, and the lid has a recess configured to receive at least a portion of the tube segment and a pump head of the therapy device.

23 . A solution cartridge for an instillation therapy device, the solution cartridge comprising:

a body forming at least a portion of a fluid reservoir, the body having an ovoid-shape with a rounded end and a flattened end opposite the rounded end;

a fill port fluidly coupled to the fluid reservoir and configured to receive fluid;

a cap coupled to the fill port; and

a tube segment coupled to the body and in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir, the tube segment configured to engage a pump head of a therapy device for movement of fluid from the fluid reservoir.

24 . The solution cartridge of claim 23 , wherein the body has at least one notch proximate to the flattened end.

25 . The solution cartridge of claim 23 , wherein the body comprises a raceway and the tube segment comprises a tube suspended across the raceway.

26 . The solution cartridge of claim 23 , wherein the body comprises a semicircular raceway, and the tube segment comprises a tube suspended across the raceway.

27 . The solution cartridge of claim 23 , further comprising a load cell segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and the fluid reservoir.

28 . The solution cartridge of claim 23 , further comprising an ultra-sonic inspection segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and a tissue site.

29 . A solution cartridge for an instillation therapy device, the solution cartridge comprising:

a carrier having a base housing and a tube housing;

a fluid container having a port configured to engage the base housing; and

a tube segment disposed in the tube housing and coupled to the carrier, the tube segment configured to be in fluid communication with the fluid container and to engage a pump head of a therapy device for movement of fluid from the fluid container.

30 . The solution cartridge of claim 29 , wherein the base housing further comprises:

a rectangular body having a receptacle disposed in an upper surface; and

a venting spike disposed in the receptacle.

31 . The solution cartridge of claim 30 , wherein the venting spike is fluidly coupled to the tube segment.

32 . The solution cartridge of claim 30 , wherein:

the venting spike is fluidly coupled to an ambient air pressure; and

the receptacle includes a fluid passage in fluid communication with the tube segment.

33 . The solution cartridge of claim 29 , further comprising a load cell segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and the fluid container.

34 . The solution cartridge of claim 29 , further comprising an ultra-sonic inspection segment fluidly coupled to the tube segment between the tube segment and a tissue site.

35 .- 41 . (canceled)
