    Abstract: The current invention provides this advance in infection control via its unique application of active sterilization to a catheter or implant. While most catheters, and many implants, are passive devices, the current invention will provide an active component as a integral part of the implanted catheter or device to continuously or intermittently sterilize the exposed surfaces/areas of the device. This active sterilization may be accomplished by a variety of mechanisms, including, application of heat, RF, microwave, ultrasound, ultraviolet radiation or other energy capable of sterilizing the device or dislodging any problematic Biofilm that may form. The active sterilization may also employ the pumping of a sterilizing chemical from an attached drug reservoir, the use of electricity or freezing temperatures or any other mechanism for either inhibiting, killing or dislodging any infectious material in contact with the implant. One major advantage of this design is that through the use of a small, battery powered or inductively powered sterilization element, the implanted catheter or device can be effectively sterilized without requiring the standard removal surgery, waiting period, then replacement of the infected device. This is expected to translate into greatly improved outcomes (particularly for devices where infection may be catastrophic, ie a prosthetic knee or hip), greatly improved costs, and greatly improved longevity of susceptible devices (ie IV ports, etc.).

    Abstract translation: 本发明通过其对导管或植入物的主动消毒的独特应用来提供感染控制方面的进步。 虽然大多数导管和许多植入物是无源器件，但是本发明将提供作为植入的导管或装置的组成部分的有源部件，以连续或间歇地对设备的暴露表面/区域进行灭菌。 这种有效的灭菌可以通过各种机制来实现，包括施加热，RF，微波，超声波，紫外线辐射或其他能够对装置进行灭菌或消除可能形成的任何有问题的生物膜的能量。 活性灭菌还可以使用从连接的药物储存器泵送灭菌化学品，使用电力或冷冻温度或任何其它机制来抑制，杀死或移除与植入物接触的任何传染性材料。 该设计的一个主要优点是通过使用小型的电池供电或感应供电的消毒元件，可以有效地对植入的导管或装置进行灭菌，而无需进行标准去除手术，等待期，然后更换被感染的装置。 预期这将转化为大大改善的结果（特别是对于感染可能是灾难性的，即假肢膝盖或髋关节的设备），大大提高了成本，并大大改善了敏感设备（即IV端口等）的寿命。

    Abstract: A personal vapor inhaling unit is disclosed. An electronic flameless vapor inhaler unit that may simulate a cigarette has a cavity that receives a cartridge in the distal end of the inhaler unit. The cartridge brings a substance to be vaporized in contact with a wick. When the unit is activated, and the user provides suction, the substance to be vaporized is drawn out of the cartridge, through the wick, and is atomized by the wick into a cavity containing a heating element. The heating element vaporizes the atomized substance. The vapors then continue to be pulled by the user through a mouthpiece and mouthpiece cover where they may be inhaled.

    Abstract: An antimicrobial composition, generally comprising a biocidal agent, such as chlorhexidine gluconate, a lubricant, such as a modified siloxane, and a solvent, such as an alcohol and/or water. The biocidal agent acts as a highly effective biocide while the lubricant reduces friction between various components of a medical device during assembly. The antimicrobial composition may be applied to an internal component of the medical device prior to assembly. The process of assembling the medical device results in antimicrobial composition being distributed to various internal structures and geometries of the medical device as the coated, internal component is assembled into the interior of the medical device. Air is then used to further distribute excess antimicrobial agent to the remaining surfaces downstream from the installed, internal component. In some embodiments, additional air is passed through the assembled medical device to assist in removing the carrier solvent from the medical device via evaporation.
