Embodiment Construction

[0068] See attached drawings below—especially figure 1 , which shows a system 10 for collecting, processing, and delivering autologous blood samples. System 10 has a number of components that are employed at different stages in the processing of a blood sample. As will be described below, the system employs a first blood sample collection syringe S1 that is used to collect an unprocessed blood sample from a source patient. After collecting the blood sample, the first syringe S1 is connected to the blood treatment chamber 12, and the blood treatment chamber 12 is then delivered to the blood treatment unit, which is schematically indicated by reference numeral 14 in the figure, A blood sample is submitted to one or more stressors in the unit, for example such a blood processing unit is disclosed in PCT-serial application No. PCT / CA00 / 0 1078, dated 2000 filed September 15, and is entitled "Apparatus and Method for Examining Mammalian Blood" (the entire disclosure of this applic...

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a system for the collection, treatment and delivery of an autologous blood sample, comprising a first syringe having a first body portion. A first sample transfer portion has a first syringe inlet for drawing an untreated blood sample from a patient and a first syringe outlet for dispensing the untreated blood sample. A blood sample treatment chamber having a chamber inlet, the first syringe outlet being operable to establish a dedicated first fluid coupling with the chamber inlet to dispense the untreated blood sample to the blood sample treatment chamber. The blood sample treatment chamber having a chamber outlet for dispensing a treated blood sample following treatment. The second syringe has a second body portion and a second sample transfer portion, the second sample transfer portion having a passage with a first access location which is operable to form a dedicated second fluid coupling with the chamber outlet. The second body portion has a second syringe outlet, the passage having a second access location for fluid communication with the second syringe outlet, releasable lock means for forming a locked third fluid coupling between the second access location and the second syringe outlet. The lock means is operable in response to a release signal to release the third fluid coupling, the second syringe outlet being operable when released from the third fluid coupling to form a fourth fluid coupling with a blood sample delivery unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the management of medical treatments. Background technique [0002] The way patients are treated has changed dramatically in recent years. Most social health care systems have been changed to improve efficiency. But these changes are not without problems. The results of a recent heart and lung transplant were frightening due to a relatively minor blood type mismatch between the donor and the recipient. Although this incident was watered down by a large number of incidents of medication errors in patients. But this incident highlights the need for improved monitoring of patients and their care to ensure they receive the correct medication and / or medical treatment and meet the specific - and potentially unique - requirements of each individual patient. [0003] It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel medical material handling system. Contents of the invention [0004] In one aspect of the presen...
