Drainage Device for the Treating Wounds Using a Reduced Pressure

The invention relates to a drainage device (100) for the treatment of wounds using reduced pressure, comprising (a) a gas-type wound-covering element (3), which, in the state in contact with the body of the patient, is fastened cohesively at the skin surface around the region of the wound and forms a sealed wound space, remaining between the respective wound and the wound-covering element (3); (b) at least one drainage tube (4), which can be connected to means generating the reduced pressure and can be inserted into the wound space approximately parallel to the wound-covering element (3); and (c) at least one absorption body (2) in the form of at least one layer (7) of a textile section (33), which is interspersed with super-absorbing particles and enclosed in an envelope. Due to the size of the pores of the envelope, the absorbed wound secretions remain within the absorption body (2) and, with that, underneath the wound-covering element (3) until the absorption body is removed from the wound space. An air opening (34) is provided for the wound-covering element (3).

Methods and devices for blood vessel harvesting

Methods and devices for harvesting veins from the body. The methods and devices allow vein harvesting using laparoscopic procedures. A working space is created over the vein using standard laparoscopic procedures and a side-hooked wire is inserted into the working space and twisted to insert the side-hook under the vein. The wire is then pulled or drawn along the vein to separate the vein from the surrounding tissue. In an alternative embodiment, vein separation is accomplished by threading a soft rubber tube under the vein, grasping the ends of the tube so as to surround the vein, and then pulling the tube along the vein. In other embodiments, the working space is created with everting balloons.

Economical camera-support-and-movement track-and-dolly system providing high stability and precision to camera movement

A system for moving a camera in space has a track with two spaced-parallel rails, each rail having two upward-extending spaced-parallel lips, and a dolly holding the camera and riding upon both rails of the track. The track is preferably segmented with each elongate rail segment preferably in the cross-section of half of a tube, while the dolly has wheels that contact only, and that ride upon, the upward-extending spaced-parallel lips of each half-tubular rail. The camera is mounted close upon the support platform of the generally rectangular wheeled dolly, which is itself squat and low to the track's two spaced-parallel rails. According to the geometries of construction, the camera is relatively insensitive in space and in angular orientation to such irregularities in track and moving dolly as are in any case minor by design, and the camera can be moved along complex paths with great precision for purposes of motion pictures and movies.
