| 20120078178 | ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE FOR AN INTRAVENOUS FLUID HEATING SYSTEM - An apparatus heats fluids. A number of lithium-ion cells are positioned within a housing. A first connector is positioned on a first end of the housing and operably connected to the number of lithium-ion cells. The first connector is configured to receive electrical power from a power source. A second connector is positioned on a second end of the housing and operably connected to the number of lithium-ion cells. A heating element has a tube for transferring fluid. The heating element is configured to connect to the second connector. A controller is positioned within the housing and operably connected to the number of lithium-ion cells and the second connector. The controller is configured to monitor a rate at which the electrical power is received by the heating element and limit an amount of the electrical power received by the heating element when the rate reaches a predetermined level. | 03-29-2012 |
| 20110202034 | MODULAR MEDICAL FLUID HEATING APPARATUS - A controller and a plurality of concatenated heating modules in electrical communication with the controller. The controller controls the flow of current to the plurality of heating modules in response to temperature measurements from at least one of the plurality of heating modules. In one embodiment, each of the plurality of heating modules concatenated with another heating module is connected by Luer-Lok™ connectors. In another embodiment, the modular medical fluid heating system further includes an auxiliary heating unit in electrical communication with the controller and in physical juxtaposition with the plurality of heating modules. The invention also relates to a heating module for a modular medical fluid heating system including a fluid input port; a fluid output port; and serpentine tubing through which fluid passes from the fluid input port to the fluid output port. In one embodiment, the heating module can be concatenated with other heating modules. | 08-18-2011 |
