Some embodiments have a pump assembly mounted to or supported by a dressing for reduced pressure wound therapy. The dressing can have visual pressure, saturation, and/or temperature sensors to provide a visual indication of the level of pressure, saturation, and/or temperature within the dressing. Additionally, the pump assembly can have a pressure sensor in communication with the flow pathway through the pump, and at least one switch or button supported by the housing, the at least one switch or button being accessible to a user and being in communication with the controller. The pump assembly can have a controller supported within or by the housing, the controller being configured to control an operation of the pump. The pump can be configured to be sterilized following the assembly of the pump such that all of the components of the pump have been sterilized.

Reduced pressure apparatus and methods

Some embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a pump assembly comprising a voice coil, a magnet and a diaphragm, wherein the voice coil is configured to move the diaphragm to pump a fluid through the pump assembly in response to a drive signal applied to the voice coil. Some embodiments disclosed herein are directed to an apparatus for applying negative pressure to a wound comprising a source of negative pressure configured to be coupled to a dressing, the source of negative comprising a voice coil actuator and a diaphragm, and a controller configured to produce a drive signal for the voice coil actuator.

Negative pressure wound therapy apparatus

Portable negative pressure apparatus

Disclosed herein are several embodiments of medical device packaging, and more particularly to a reduced pressure therapy kit and packaging and methods of using the same in the treatment of wounds. Some embodiments are directed towards packaging including a dressing compartment for storing wound dressings and having use instructions printed thereon, the dressing compartment detachably connected to a pump compartment for storing a sterile pump. After removal of the pump, the pump compartment can be detached from the dressing compartment and discarded. The dressing compartment can be retained together with any additional dressings and the use instructions.

Reduced pressure wound therapy kit and packaging

A test device () for testing for the presence of a substance in a sample held on a sample carrier () includes a holder () for holding a sample carrier () which includes one or more chambers (). The test device () also includes an actuator for compressing or depressurizing the chamber(s) (). The actuator is configured to prevent reinflation of the chamber(s) () after compression or depressurization.

Test device and sample carrier

Package

Packaging for a wound therapy system

A container (), comprising a thread () arranged around an opening () for engaging a corresponding thread () of a closure (), more than four retention members () arranged around the opening (), each retention member () having an end-face for abutting a member () on an interior surface of the closure () to impede unthreading of the closure (), the retention members () being arranged such that a tangent () to each end-face of the retention members () intersects a plane () bisecting the container () at an obtuse angle (), wherein the retention members () are arranged in first and second groups, the first group () comprising one retention member () having an end-face substantially parallel to the plane bisecting the container (), and the second group () comprising two or more retention members (), the first and second groups being arranged on one side of the plane (), each in a respective quadrant of the container (), the teeth of the second group () have a first inter-tooth spacing, and a second inter-tooth spacing is provided between an end-face of the retention member of the first group () and a first retention member of the second group (), and the second inter-tooth spacing is larger than the first inter-tooth spacing.
