System for flushing a wound and / or a body cavity, in particular the pericardial cavity
A flushing system configured to flush a wound and / or a body cavity of a patient comprises: an infusion liquid outlet to connect a first tube guiding a flow of infusion liquid from the system to the wound and / or the body cavity; an effusion liquid inlet to connect to a second tube guiding the effusion liquid flow from the wound and / or the body cavity to the system; a flow rate control system to control the flow rate at the infusion liquid outlet; and a hematocrit sensor configured to optically measure the hematocrit value of the effusion liquid received via the effusion liquid inlet, to obtain a blood loss volume and / or a blood loss flow rate from the wound and / or the body cavity by means of emitting light having different wavelengths. The different wavelengths are respectively assigned to the green wavelength range and to the red or near-infrared wavelength range.

System for flushing a wound and / or a body cavity, in particular the pericardial cavity
A flushing system comprises: an infusion liquid outlet to connect to a first tube arrangement having a plurality of infusion liquid lumen guiding a flow of infusion liquid from the system to a wound and / or body cavity; an effusion liquid inlet to connect to a second tube having an effusion liquid lumen guiding the effusion liquid from the wound and / or the body cavity to the system; and a flow rate control system to control the flow rate at the infusion liquid outlet. The flow rate control system comprises: a control unit, and a pump device to pump infusion liquid to the infusion liquid outlet at a flow rate adjustable by control signals of the control unit. Each infusion liquid lumen of the first tube arrangement has openings arranged along the first tube arrangement and spaced from one another for leading the infusion liquid into the wound and / or the body cavity.
