    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus and methods for determining information related to analyte(s) (e.g., concentration) in a sample such as biological fluid. An analysis system for determining information relating to at least one analyte in a sample of biological fluid can be configured to: withdraw the sample of biological fluid from the source of biological fluid; interrupt the flow of infusion fluid while the sample of biological fluid is withdrawn; analyze the withdrawn biological fluid to determine information relating to at least one analyte; and resume the flow of infusion fluid after the sample of biological fluid is withdrawn. A method of interrupting flow of an infusion fluid without triggering an alarm can comprise, while the flow of the infusion fluid is interrupted, diverting the flow of the infusion fluid from a fluid passageway to an expandable volume at a rate that maintains constant flow from an infusion pump.

    Abstract: An apparatus for analyzing the composition of bodily fluid. The apparatus comprises a fluid handling network including a patient end configured to maintain fluid communication with a bodily fluid in a patient; and a pump unit in operative engagement with the fluid handling network. The pump unit has an infusion mode in which the pump unit is operable to deliver infusion fluid to the patient through the patient end, and a sample draw mode in which the pump unit is operable to draw a sample of the bodily fluid from the patient through the patient end. The apparatus further comprises a spectroscopic analyzer positioned to analyze at least a portion of the sample; a processor in communication with or incorporated into the spectroscopic analyzer; and stored program instructions executable by the processor to obtain measurements of two or more properties of the sample. In one implementation, the pump unit comprises a first pump operable in the infusion mode but not in the sample draw mode, and a second pump operable in the sample draw mode but not in the infusion mode.

    Abstract: A coupling pad can be used with a transducer element. Ultrasound produced by the transducer element can be propagated through the coupling pad to a patient. In one arrangement, the pad is a pouch containing a pliant substance. In other arrangements, the pad is a somewhat solid member formed of a material that transmits ultrasound waves efficiently. The pad may be configured to fit between a patient's skin and a transducer element so that output from the transducer element passes through the pad to a treatment site of the patient.

    Abstract: A method for providing a therapeutic effect to a treatment site within a patient's vasculature comprises positioning a catheter at the treatment site. The catheter includes a heating element and a fluid delivery lumen that is coupled to an exit port within a distal region of the catheter. The method further comprises passing the therapeutic compound through the delivery lumen and the exit port at a flow rate. The heated therapeutic compound is provided to the treatment site. The method further comprises exposing at least a portion of the treatment site and at least a portion of the delivered heated therapeutic compound to ultrasonic energy generated by the ultrasound radiating member.

    Abstract: A sample element includes first and second substantially parallel faces separated by an intermediate member. The parallel faces and the intermediate member at least partially define a sample chamber configured to hold a volume of fluid. The sample element further includes an optical path extending through the parallel faces and the intermediate member, such that electromagnetic radiation can propagate through the sample chamber. The sample element further includes an identifying compound disposed within or on at least one of the parallel faces. The identifying compound has at least one indexed optical absorbance feature, such that spectral analysis of electromagnetic radiation propagated through the sample chamber yields the indexed optical absorbance feature. Detection of the indexed optical absorbance feature in electromagnetic radiation propagated through the sample chamber indicates to an analyte detection system whether the sample element is configured for use with the analyte detection system.
