1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to treating an open wound, and, more specifically, relates to a wound therapy system including an improved subatmospheric pressure mechanism.
2. Background of Related Art
Wound closure involves the migration of epithelial and subcutaneous tissue adjacent the wound towards the center and away from the base of the wound until the wound closes. Unfortunately, closure is difficult with large wounds, chronic wounds or wounds that have become infected. In such wounds, a zone of stasis (i.e. an area in which localized swelling of tissue restricts the flow of blood to the tissues) forms near the surface of the wound. Without sufficient blood flow, the epithelial and subcutaneous tissues surrounding the wound not only receive diminished oxygen and nutrients, but, are also less able to successfully fight microbial infection and, thus, are less able to close the wound naturally. Such wounds have presented difficulties to medical personnel for many years.
Negative pressure therapy also known as suction or vacuum therapy has been used in treating and healing wounds. Application of negative pressure, e.g. reduced or subatmospheric pressure, to a localized reservoir over a wound has been found to assist in closing the wound by promoting blood flow to the area, stimulating the formation of granulation tissue, and encouraging the migration of healthy tissue over the wound. Negative pressure may also inhibit bacterial growth by drawing fluids from the wound such as exudates, which may tend to harbor bacteria. This technique has proven particularly effective for chronic or healing-resistant wounds, and is also used for other purposes such as post-operative wound care.
Generally, negative pressure therapy provides for a wound to be covered to facilitate suction at the wound area. A conduit is introduced through the wound covering to provide fluid communication to an external vacuum source. Atmospheric gas, wound exudates, or other fluids may thus be drawn from the wound area through the fluid conduit to stimulate healing of the wound. Exudates drawn from the wound area may be deposited in a collection canister or container.
Subatmospheric pressure mechanisms used in wound therapy systems may include a cavity or chamber for receiving the removed exudates, a vacuum source, and a power source. The pressure mechanisms are configured to provide the suction that draws exudates from the wound. Unfortunately, conventional subatmospheric pressure mechanisms have a tendency to develop leaks. Leaks may reduce the efficiency of the system and/or create odor and wetness issues.
Accordingly, the present disclosure relates to an improved subatmospheric pressure mechanism. A portable system for subatmospheric pressure therapy in connection with healing a surgical wound is provided. The system includes a wound dressing dimensioned for positioning relative to a wound bed of a subject, and a collection canister in fluid communication with the wound dressing. The canister may include a base defining a fluid receiving cavity and having a fluid inlet port and a vacuum port. The fluid inlet port is configured for fluid communication with a wound dressing. A cover is selectively engageable to the base, e.g., in a snap-fit manner. The cover accommodates a control unit and a vent assembly for exhausting the control unit. A seal member is interposed relative to the base and the cover and is adapted to establish and maintain a sealed relationship between these components. At least one of the fluid inlet port and the vacuum port may be configured to receive a cap.
The control unit of the system may include a vacuum source and/or a power source. The vacuum port may also include a hydrophobic membrane. The vent assembly may be recessed relative to the base or cover. The system may further include a divider having a plurality of longitudinal grooves formed on an underside thereof. The divider may further include a channel fluidly communicating the plurality of longitudinal grooves with at least one of the fluid inlet port and the vacuum port. The control unit may be directly connected to the vent assembly.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the disclosure and, together with a general description of the disclosure given above, and the detailed description of the embodiment(s) given below, serve to explain the principles of the disclosure, wherein:
The following figures illustrate embodiments of the present disclosure and are referenced to describe the embodiments depicted therein. Hereinafter, the disclosure will be described by explaining the figures wherein like reference numerals represent like parts throughout the several views.
Referring initially to
With reference now to
Housing base 110 and housing cover 120 may be adapted for releasable coupling. In one embodiment, housing base 110 includes flange 112 and notch or recess 114. Flange 112 is configured to engage lip 122 formed in housing cover 120. Notch 114 is configured to selectively receive a tab 126 of an extension 124 of housing cover 120. Housing base 110 further includes a fluid inlet 116 and a suction port 118. Fluid inlet 116 is configured to operably engage conduit "c" and may include a luer lock 112 a. Inlet 116 is preferably configured to receive cap 116 a for preventing leakage of exudates "E" and odor from first cavity 111 when housing cover 120 is separated from housing base 110. Suction port 118 is configured to operably engage vacuum source 150. Suction port 118 may include a hydrophobic membrane or filter 115 for preventing exudates "E" from being aspirated into vacuum source 150. Suction port 118 may also be configured to receive cap 118 a to prevent fluid leakage during disposal of housing base 110.
With reference still to
Seal member 128 extends about housing cover 120 to form a seal between housing cover 120 and housing base 110 when housing cover 120 is selectively secured to housing base 110. Seal member 128 may be secured to housing cover 120 in any manner, including mechanical fastening, welding, and adhesive. Alternatively, seal member 128 may extend about housing base 110 to form a seal between housing base 110 and housing cover 120. In an alternative embodiment., seal member 128 may include two or more seal elements (not shown). Seal member 128 establishes and maintains a sealed relationship between cover 120 and housing base 110 when the components are assembled thereby preserving the integrity of the second cavity 121 within cover 120.
Housing cover 120 further includes vent assembly 130 configured to vent exhaust air from vacuum source 150 through exhaust port 130 a. Turning initially to
Turning now to
In operation, subatmospheric pressure mechanism 104 is adapted to draw exudates from wound dressing 102 via conduit "c". Initially, housing cover 120 is selectively secured to housing base 110. To secure housing cover 120 to housing base 110, lip 122 of housing cover 120 is first received within flange 112 of housing base 110. Housing cover 120 is then pivoted about flange 112 such that extension 124 received over housing base 110. Housing cover 120 is pivoted until tab 126 of extension 124 is received within notch 114. Subatmospheric pressure mechanism 104 may be configured such that receipt of tab 126 within notch 114 causes an audible sound, thereby confirming to a user that housing cover 120 has been securely received on housing base 110. Once subatmospheric pressure mechanism 104 is assembled, conduit "c" may be fluidly coupled to fluid inlet 116 and the control unit (not shown) may be activated. Activation of vacuum source 150 creates suction within first cavity 111 that draws exudates from wound dressing 102 through conduit "c". Exudates "E" collect in first cavity 111 of housing base 110. Exhaust from vacuum source 150 is vented either directly or indirectly through vent assembly 130, 130′, respectively. Heat may also be dissipated through vent assembly 130′.
Upon filling of first cavity 111, completion of treatment or other any other reason, subatmospheric pressure mechanism 104 may be deactivated and exudates "E" may be properly disposed. To disengage housing cover 120 from housing base 110, extension 124 of housing cover 120 is flexed away from housing base 110. In this manner, tab 126 on extension 124 is withdrawn from engagement with notch 114 formed in housing base 120. Housing cover 120 may be pivoted away from housing base 110 until lip 122 of housing cover 120 disengages flange 112 of housing base 110. Once housing cover 120 is separated from housing base 110, exudates "E" may be disposed. Exudates "E" may be emptied from first cavity 111, or alternatively, housing base 110 may be disposed of in its entirety. In the event housing base 110 is disposed, caps 116 a, 118 a may be placed in fluid inlet 116 and suction port 118, respectively, such that housing base 110 may be transported without worry of fluid leakage or odor escaping from within cavity 111.

Review of Saturn Run by John Sandford
Filed under: Reviews
Saturn Run
By John Sandford and Ctein; Narrated by Eric Conger
Publisher: Penguin Audio
Publication Date: 6 October 2015
[UNABRIDGED] – 16 hours, 35 minutes
Themes: / spaceship / aliens / first contact / thriller /
Publisher summary:
For fans of The Martian, an extraordinary new thriller of the future from number-one New York Times best-selling and Pulitzer Prize-winning author John Sandford and internationally known photo-artist and science fiction aficionado Ctein.
Over the course of 37 books, John Sandford has proven time and again his unmatchable talents for electrifying plots, rich characters, sly wit, and razor-sharp dialogue. Now, in collaboration with Ctein, he proves it all once more in a stunning new thriller, a story as audacious as it is deeply satisfying.
The year is 2066. A Caltech intern inadvertently notices an anomaly from a space telescope – something is approaching Saturn and decelerating. Space objects don't decelerate. Spaceships do.
A flurry of top-level government meetings produces the inescapable conclusion: Whatever built that ship is at least 100 years ahead in hard and soft technology, and whoever can get their hands on it exclusively and bring it back will have an advantage so large, no other nation can compete. A conclusion the Chinese definitely agree with when they find out.
The race is on, and a remarkable adventure begins – an epic tale of courage, treachery, resourcefulness, secrets, surprises, and astonishing human and technological discovery, as the members of a hastily thrown-together crew find their strength and wits tested against adversaries both of this Earth and beyond. What happens is nothing like you expect – and everything you could want from one of the world's greatest masters of suspense.
You will want to love this book. And it's easy to understand why. There's a space race to Saturn, the promise of cool alien tech, and a whole mess of us versus them as China and America reach for the stars (sorry, but the pun had to be). The writing and story are solid. They don't break new ground, but the read is fun, and if you experience disappointment, it'll be due to what isn't here rather than what is here. This is to say, you will look up after reading/listening and want more as opposed to wanting less. You will, in the end, like this book.
I wanted more character development. This could have occurred in a longer story, but as it is, the narrative feels too hurried. Yes, pacing in thrillers is essential, but this story would have benefited with more attention to character and less use of political stereotypes.
If you're in the market for a fun and fast-paced space thriller that teases you with alien technology, I'm pretty confident you'll enjoy what Saturn Run offers. In the author's note, it calls attention to the desire to stay as near to science as possible while projecting technology into the year 2066. And so for those of you who enjoy hard science with respect to velocity and gravity, I think you might appreciate the science presented. I'm not an engineer, so I don't know if the technical specs discussed for one of the spaceship's engines are accurate, but they are intriguing.
Eric Conger narrates the audiobook. Conger does a fantastic job at reading and staying out of story's way. I highly recommend the audiobook.
The first half of this book promises more than the second half delivers. And since the fun factor is slightly more than the disappointment factor, I leave feeling mildly amused and entertained.

In The Abyss by H.G. Wells
Filed under: Online Audio
A very good reading of one of H.G. Wells' long neglected stories, In The Abyss, is now available from LibriVox. James Christopher narrates this pioneering tale of first contact with a submarine civilization and he does it with the skill that comes from more than five years of contributions to LibriVox!
Those who've read H.P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth will appreciate the Well's description of what sounds like Deep Ones:
"Two large and protruding eyes projected from sockets in chameleon fashion, and it had a broad reptilian mouth with horny lips beneath its little nostrils. In the position of the ears were two huge gill-covers, and out of these floated a branching tree of coralline filaments, almost like the tree-like gills that very young rays and sharks possess. But the humanity of the face was not the most extraordinary thing about the creature. It was a biped; its almost globular body was poised on a tripod of two frog-like legs and a long, thick tail, and its fore limbs, which grotesquely caricatured the human hand, much as a frog's do, carried a long shaft of bone, tipped with copper. The colour of the creature was variegated; its head, hands, and legs were purple; but its skin, which hung loosely upon it, even as clothes might do, was a phosphorescent grey."

LibriVox: Naudsonce by H. Beam Piper
Filed under: Online Audio
Here's part of Phil Chenevert's introduction to his latest LibriVox narration, a novelette by H.Beam Piper called Naudsonce:
The joint Space Navy-Colonial Office expedition was looking for new planets suitable for colonization; they had been out, now, for four years, which was close to maximum for an exploring expedition. They had entered eleven systems, and made landings on eight planets. Three had been reasonably close to Terra-type but were all disqualified by terrible animals or warlike inhabitants. Now, finally here was an ideal world; their last chance before returning in disgrace. Now the only thing was to get an agreement from the local king or whatever to the colonization. Easy, right? Well first, you've got to talk to them …… and there the trouble starts.

LibriVox: The Good Neighbors by Edgar Pangborn
Filed under: Online Audio
A first contact story and a mystery story! When a massive alien, the size of a city, enters Earth's atmosphere fighter jets are scrambled to meet it. The alien seems to be in search of something – but what it is won't turn out to be what we expect. Here's part of the description of the alien:
She had a head, drawn back most of the time into the bloated mass of the body but thrusting forward now and then on a short neck not more than three hundred feet in length. When she did that the blunt turtle-like head could be observed, the gaping, toothless, suffering mouth from which the thunder came, and the soft-shining purple eyes that searched the ground but found nothing answering her need. The skin-color was mud-brown with some dull iridescence and many peculiar marks resembling weals or blisters. Along the belly some observers saw half a mile of paired protuberances that looked like teats.

Published: May 2011
After Archangels materialise over the bloodbaths of WWII, they take up residence in most of the world's major cities. But what would happen if, more than quarter of a century later, something somehow managed to kill these supreme beings? Killarney knows and, as an agent working for the Bureau, a British agency that's so secret it doesn't officially exist, she finds herself embroiled in the consequences as, one by one, the Archangels die. Assigned to trace a missing cryptographer thought to have information on the murders, she travels from England, through France, heading for the frozen wastes of the USSR. But there's an unknown third party intent on stopping her, and there's God, who also has an agenda. Not knowing who is friend and who is foe, and with only a brief glimpse of a swastika on angel wings as solid information, Killarney struggles to remain alive long enough to glean sufficient information to put together the pieces of the puzzle and complete what is, without them, an impossible mission.

Space Captain Smith is the first book of the Chronicles of Isambard Smith. It's the 25th Century and the British Space Empire faces the gathering menace of the evil ant-soldiers of the Ghast hive, hell bent on galactic domination and the extermination of all humanoid life forms. Captain Isambard Smith is the square-jawed, courageous and somewhat asinine new commander of the clapped out freighter John Pym, destined to take on the alien threat because nobody else is available. Together with his bold crew- a skull-collecting alien lunatic, an android pilot who is actually a fugitive sex toy and a hamster called Gerald- he must collect new-age herbalist Rhianna Mitchell from the New Francisco orbiter and bring her back to the Empire in safety. Straightforward enough – except the Ghasts want her too and, in addition to a whole fleet of Ghast warships, Smith has to confront void sharks, a universe-weary android assassin and John Gilead, psychopathic naval officer from the fanatically religious Republic of Eden before facing his greatest enemy: a ruthless alien warlord with a very large behind…

Legislation to enforce new accountability standards for publicly funded early childhood education programs cleared the Senate Committee on Education on Thursday. Senate Bill 130, by Sen. Conrad Appel, R-Metarie, would implement Act 3, a law passed last year consolidating all pre-kindergarten and daycare programs into one network and giving them letter grades.
The bill creates Early Childhood Care and Education Network and the Tiered Kindergarten Readiness Improvement System. It also establishes the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education as the network's supervisor.
"The goal was to improve the performance and quality of the program serving children zero to five," said Stafford Palmieri, an education and workforce policy advisor in Gov. Bobby Jindal's office.
The bill would also authorize BESE to establish standards grading all pre-K programs receiving public funds.
The grading standards would mimic Compass, a K-12 teacher evaluation system that grades teacher efficiency based on student test scores and classroom monitoring.
The proposal now moves to the Senate for consideration.

Streaming of Drake's latest album Views has hit Apple Music, and will be exclusive to the streaming service for one week, the rapper announced on Beats 1. This confirmed an earlier Buzzfeed report.
Drake told Zane Lowe that the album is a very personal one, based very much on his own feelings about himself and his home city of Toronto.
I'm a very honest person. I can't write fiction.
The short one-week exclusivity period was no doubt influenced by the fact that Drake was the most-streamed artist on Spotify last year, and perhaps also wanting to avoid emulating some high-profile U-turns by artists who had initially promised full exclusivity elsewhere …

As we are placed into this dreamy zone with Pisces Moon, our dreams may try to converse with us during sleep. Pay attention and jot down notes that can be remembered for personal messages. As Luna squares Jupiter this morning, we may require more rest that we were aware of, so don't feel too guilty for sleeping in a little later than normal. Moods can be emotionally sensitive under this lunar cycle, allowing us to pick up more energy that we're aware of. Kindness matters. Make it a day of comfort and pleasure. 'The creatures that inhabit this earth, be they human beings or animals, are here to contribute, each in its own particular way, to the beauty and prosperity of the world'.

It replaces a 'silver' rack that needed too much maintenance (water calcification marks) because of it's age however the grey one readily shows up water marks and so needs a daily wipe down to keep it looking smart.

October in Alaska this year was more like September, with warmth and rain in place of autumn chill and snow. Wind anomalies related to unusual pressure patterns conspired to bring a steady stream of warm, wet air from southerly latitudes into Alaska.
August 2013 came and went without a single Atlantic hurricane. That's unusual, but by no means unprecedented.
Understanding how extreme events in 2012 were influenced—or not—by human-caused climate change
On July 30, 2013, a weather station on the southwest coast of Greenland preliminarily set a new record high temperature for the country, but whether it will stand as an "official" record after scientists apply quality control procedures isn't yet known. What is known? Greenland's getting warmer.
Since 1976, every year has been warmer than the long-term average, and 2012 continued the trend: the global surface temperature ranked among the top 10 warmest years on record.
Global average sea level in 2012 was 1.4 inches above the 1993-2010 average, which was the highest yearly average in the satellite record. Sea level has been rising over the past century, and the pace has increased in recent decades.
Earth's atmosphere includes billions and billions of gallons of evaporated water: i
A plant is a sophisticated climate-observing device. These satellite maps of the central and southern Great Plains during the week of April 8, 2012, and 2013 show how plants in the heart of the U.S. winter wheat croplands "measured" dramatically different climate conditions this spring than last.
As the whole ocean gets warmer, NOAA scientists must redefine what they consider "average" temperature in the central tropical Pacific, where they keep watch for El Niño and La Niña.
According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, an estimated 58 percent of the contiguous United States was in some level of drought as of January 29, with an additional 12 percent in the "Abnormally dry" category.

Merry Christmas
Since we're all in full-on vacation mode around here (seriously, as I'm typing this, my sister is reading and my mom is playing Words With Friends on her iPad...), I thought I'd slow down a little for the rest of the week with some fun, not-too-serious posts, but can't wait to get back to regular posting in the new year! I hope you're surrounded by loved ones today, and I also hope you know just how thankful I am to have you in my life -- you never fail to make me smile, and I look forward to new adventures together! But until then, relax and enjoy the holiday. After all, you certainly deserve it! xoxo

Today I`m going to review a lens from the Berry Cessy Tricolor Series. This is my very first green lens, and the first too with this style (the tri color thing, etc hehe). I got this lens from Angelic Rain as they have kindly sponsored me a pair.
I`m not really into colors like these as I would have preferred something gray or brownish but I felt like I have to try out other lens style, thus the tricolor thing.
In this series, there are 5 available colors. I would have gone for the gray or brown but decided to get the green one for a change.
Shipping was just like the usual, because its international. But this time it took longer than expected because there was something wrong with the system, so I got my lens after a month or so. Hmmm not the shop`s fault anyway so I don`t mind. Okay anyways on to the lens and my review...
Product Description
* Prescription Available: 0.00 (Plano) to -10.00
* Diameter: 14mm
* Base Curve Radius: 8.60mm
* Water Content: 38 ~ 42%
* Using Cycle: One Year
* Manufacturer: Geo Medical Inc.
My Review
I forgot to take a photo of the packaging because I was super excited to receive them, so I ripped off the package right away ^_~. But I did take not of it; the lenses were securely wrapped inside using bubble wrap, plus the paper used has a pad of bubble wrap too, so I`m pretty sure the lens will be secured and will not be damaged along the way. When I opened it up, here`s what I saw.
One thing that surprised me was that I think my eyes look slightly bigger than the other when I tried the lens on one eye only. Although I know that this is a 14mm lens, still I felt an enlargement ^_O, which I dont really mind (and I`m happy about the effect). Check out photos below to see what I meant.
As you can see, the enlargement is not that obvious, and I think its because of the design on the lens which makes my eyes appear bigger than the usual. Also I think if I wear this lens alone without anything, I could look weird or something. So what I did was just apply a little make-up on my eyes to tone it down a bit and I liked the result because now I looked human :D
See what I mean with toning down the look of the lens with a little eye make-up? Haha sorry I`m no pro when it comes to make-up, that`s the best I could do. And I think it turned out pretty well, what do you think?
The photo on the website is actually a lighter shade of green, but when I wore the lens it looked liked a darker green. Maybe its because I got brown eyes, and so brown plus light green results to a darker green? Hehe I`m not sure, but I think that`s what happens. The lens has a yellowish color towards the inner part, but it is not that obvious when worn because I think the yellow color has blended perfectly with my brown eyes, thus you can only see the greenish color. I like how the lens don`t have that dark outer ring, which makes it look natural in terms of design. As for the color, it would be obvious that I`m wearing a contact lens because most Asians (if not all) have brown or black eyes.
Even from afar the color shows and its very pretty! I feel like Im European or something. Hmmm wait do people from Europe have these eye color? Lol haha
I tried capturing a photo and turned it into black and white. Even in BnW mode, the lens design is still very obvious.
To sum it all up, I am very happy and satisfied with the product, especially with the customer service of the shop. I had no problems whatsoever with their staff as they were very kind and nice to talk with. As for the lens, I am satisfied with it too. I had no problems or trouble while wearing it as it was very comfortable, and super nice ^_^
Comfort (4/5) - No eye related problems while wearing the lens.
Design (5/5) - I love its natural-ish design, blends well with my eyes.
Color (4/5) - Although the color appears darker when worn, I still love it.
Price (4/5) - It might be expensive, but its really worth the price you`re paying.
Overall (17/20) - I`m very much happy and satisfied with this product.
I`d definitely recommend this lens for those who are looking for something new and different (in my case it is, since my eyes are naturally brown and having them go green is totally new). So if you like this lens, you can purchase it at Angelic Rain for only $20. You`ll also get a free lens case with every purchase :) Now how cool is that?

Nowhere to Go is a strategy game for two players. Each player places his or her spy piece on one of the two starting spaces. Then each player places five blockers at random anywhere on the board. Players take turns moving their spy pieces as many spaces as they (at least one space) like across any bridges that are not blocked. Players end their turns by placing a blocker on any bridge. The first player to trap the other spy with blockers wins. Nowhere to Go comes with a hexagonal game board, two playing pieces, and 40 blockers.
Nowhere to Go is easy to learn but definitely requires some strategic thinking. The more blockers that get added to the board, the harder it gets to move your spy pieces. You can't just think of where to place your next blocker. You also need to keep in mind where your opponent might play his next blocker and keep your spy piece from getting blocked.
Nowhere to Go is for ages 8 and up.
For more advanced players, Educational Insights recommends decreasing the number of blockers you use at the start of the game. Using only two or three blockers to start makes the game more challenging.
