20090158597, Jun 25, 2009

Filed:

Dec 11, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/332530

Inventors:

Richard M. Braga - North Easton MA, US
Brett Haarala - Farmingham MA, US
Kevin Trainor - Greenville RI, US
Sean McDermott - Hanson MA, US

Assignee:

Tyco Healthcare Group LP - Mansfield MA

International Classification:

B26D 3/16
B26B 13/00

US Classification:

30 925, 30231

Abstract:

An apparatus for cutting medical tubes includes a frame having first and second members. Each of the first and second members has a tube support mount to assist in supporting a medical tube. The first and second members are adapted for relative movement between a first position for facilitating positioning of the medical tube proximal the tube supporting mounts and a second position for capturing the medical tube within the tube supporting mounts. A cutting element is mounted to the frame. The cutting element is moveable through a cutting plane and independent of the relative movement of the first and second members to sever the medical tube captured within the tube support mounts when in the second position of the first and second members. A manual member may be operatively connected to the cutting element and actuable through manual manipulation of a health care professional to move the cutting element.

International Classification:

C40B 30/06
C12N 5/071

US Classification:

506 10, 435404

Abstract:

The present invention relates to methods of selecting and developing a chemically defined media (“CDM”) for use in the manufacture of biological products. In particular, the present invention is directed to screening methods to determine cell culture technique media supplement blends with enhanced performance characteristics. The present invention is also directed to identifying CDM supplement blends that demonstrate significant increases in harvest titer and/or viable cell density.

Appl. No.:

17/495513

Inventors:

- Minneapolis MN, US
Sean A. McDermott - Weymouth MA, US

International Classification:

A61L 33/06
A61M 25/00
A61L 29/08
A61L 29/14
A61L 29/16
A61K 38/36

Abstract:

An example medical device includes a vascular device, such as a catheter, and an anti-thrombogenic coating on a surface of the vascular device, such as a surface likely to contact blood. The anti-thrombogenic coating includes one or more peptides configured to interact with fibrinogen in the blood, such as a first type of peptides configured to bind to fibrinogen a second type of peptides configured to inhibit conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin. The anti-thrombogenic coating also includes a polymer, such as a hydrocolloid polymer, a tunable polyethylene glycol (PEG), or other controlled release polymer configured to control release of the one or more peptides and maintain a concentration of the peptides at the surface of the anti-thrombogenic coating above a minimum inhibitory concentration, thereby inhibiting thrombin formation on the intravascular medical device.

Appl. No.:

17/307734

Inventors:

- Mansfield MA, US
Sean McDermott - Weymouth MA, US

International Classification:

A61M 25/01
A61M 25/00

Abstract:

A medical catheter includes an elongate member and an insert. The elongate member has proximal and distal end portions and defines a longitudinal axis through the proximal and distal end portions. The elongate member includes a wall at least partially defining a longitudinal lumen and defining a side opening extending radially from an outer surface of the wall to the longitudinal lumen. The insert is at least partially disposed within the side opening and at least partially defines an insert passage in fluid communication with the longitudinal lumen. The elongate member includes a first material defining the side opening and the insert includes a second material different from the first material.
