Blood flow regulating shunting system with removable filter
The patent US12070542B2 describes a shunt designed for medical applications, specifically for controlling blood flow in a mammalian patient. The shunt consists of a first housing that accommodates a conduit for blood ingress, along with a regulator that manages the blood flow rate through this conduit. A second housing is removably attached to the first, featuring a cavity that collects blood from the first conduit and is configured to receive a second conduit for blood egress. A blood filter is integrated into the second housing, facilitating communication with the first conduit. Additionally, a connector disc is included, which connects the first conduit and the blood filter, establishing a continuous path for blood flow through the shunt.
The claims further detail the shunt's features, including an adjustable regulator with a trigger lever, a threaded connection for the removable attachment of the housings, and a design that allows for a secure fit of the connector disc within the first housing. The assembly method for the shunt involves attaching the first and second conduits to their respective housings, creating a blood flow pathway between them. The method also outlines the process of regulating blood flow by manipulating the regulator, which can either constrict or allow expansion of the first conduit. This innovative design aims to enhance the efficiency and control of blood transfer in medical settings, particularly in procedures requiring precise blood flow management.
