Systems and methods for medical device control
Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.
1. A tissue treatment system, comprising:
a processing container, including an exterior side wall, a top wall, and a bottom wall, wherein the exterior side wall, top wall, and bottom wall surround an interior volume for holding tissue;
a filtering structure having a rigid frame and a mesh filter, wherein the filtering structure extends from the top wall to the bottom wall to divide the interior volume into a first portion interior to the filtering structure and a second portion exterior to the filtering structure, and wherein the filtering structure is sloped inwardly from the top wall to the bottom wall;
a stabilizing base to improve stability of the system; and
an extraction port configured to extract tissue from the first portion of the interior volume through the bottom wall and the stabilizing base, the extraction port having a first opening positioned within the first portion of the interior volume of the container.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base has a widened section having a widest dimension 40% greater than a width of the bottom wall of the processing container.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the stabilizing base is at least three times greater in width than its height.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes a high-friction, textured, or tacky substance to prevent slipping or skidding.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes fluids, metals, or other high density materials to provide additional weight to the stabilizing base.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes a flared outward section.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the stabilizing base further comprises multiple legs for additional support.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes indentations to facilitate gripping of the device by the user.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the container can be separated from and reattached to the stabilizing base.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes a rotating handle mechanism.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base is sterilizable.
12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base is configured to be secured to a surface during use to add further stability.
13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base is configured to store a fluid bag.
14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the filtering structure includes a frame member defining one or more windows and one or more filters.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein each filter is heat-sealed at a perimeter of its corresponding window.
16. The system of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of tubes pass through at least a portion of the stabilizing base.
17. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing base includes suction cups.
18. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a spring and needle gauge to indicate the mass of tissue present within the interior volume of the system.
19. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a sterile drape pre-attached to the container.
20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the sterile drape includes an adhesive element to adhere to the underside of a surface.
21. The system of claim 1 , wherein the filtering structure is configured to engage with the first opening of the extraction port.
22. The system of claim 1 , wherein the extraction port includes a second opening on an exterior of the stabilizing base that is configured to connect to a syringe.
