Filed:

Sep 14, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/620236

Inventors:

Gregory A. WATSON - Sanford FL, US
Robert M. HUMMEL - Cave Creek AZ, US
Marc C. JACOFSKY - Phoenix AZ, US
David J. JACOFSKY - Peoria AZ, US

Assignee:

Cold Plasma Medical Technologies, Inc. - Scottsdale AZ

International Classification:

B23K 10/00

US Classification:

2191215, 21912159

Abstract:

A nozzle for attachment to a cold plasma device configured to maintain delivery of a stable cold plasma. The nozzle can have many different shaped apertures to support different applications requiring different shaped cold plasma plumes. Use of a disc of foam material within a nozzle can expand the size of aperture of a nozzle while maintaining delivery of a stable cold plasma. The nozzle can be an elongated cannula tube for internal delivery of a cold plasma treatment. The cannula tube can provide an aperture at its distal end or one or more apertures along its length. A shroud can partially enclose the distal aperture of the nozzle. A sterile sleeve can be used in conjunction with a nozzle to provide a sterile means of attachment and operation of the nozzle with a cold plasma device.

International Classification:

H05H 1/24
F16J 13/00

US Classification:

31511121, 2066

Abstract:

A gas cartridge is described that is configured to provide sufficient gas to support cold plasma generation for a specific medical process. The gas cartridge has a seal that is pierced upon connection of the gas cartridge to the cold plasma delivery system. Different embodiments are described that use different connection locations between the gas cartridge and the cold plasma delivery system. A shroud is also described that shields the user if the cold plasma delivery system is dropped and the gas cartridge ruptures. Use of an ID system assists in ensuring that the correct gas mixture, correct gas cartridge and correct power supply settings are used for the particular medical treatment process.

International Classification:

A61M 37/00
H01J 7/00

US Classification:

604 23, 31511121

Abstract:

A cold plasma mask application device for delivery of a cold plasma to the face of a patient. An appropriate gas is introduced into a gas containment area that is energized by one or more electrodes that receive energy from a pulsed source. The plasma can be prevented from contact with the patient's face, or can be allowed to make contact with the patient's face at the appropriate treatment area. A three-layer approach to the manufacture of the cold plasma mask application device is also described. Such a device and method can be used to treat acne as well as complex facial wounds such as those resulting from trauma, melanoma, and other cancers of the face, rosacea, and psoriasis.

International Classification:

A61M 37/00

US Classification:

604 23

Abstract:

A compact cold plasma device for generating cold plasma having temperatures in the range 65 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. The compact cold plasma device has a magnet-free configuration and an induction-grid-free configuration. An additional configuration uses an induction grid in place of the input electrode to generate the cold plasma. A high voltage power supply is provided that includes a controllable switch to release energy from a capacitor bank to a dual resonance RF transformer. A controller adjusts the energy input to the capacitor bank, as well as the trigger to the controllable switch.

Inventors:

Robert A. Hummel - Oklahoma City OK

International Classification:

A61F 116

US Classification:

3 13

Abstract:

An artificial intraocular lens device which utilizes a distendable, resilient superior loop and affixure to form a lobular positioning structure for implantation. The lens includes a superior haptic rim and large superior loop that may be secured to the haptic rim to provide spring-like lobes. In addition, various configurations of inferior loop and/or inferior haptics may be utilized in combination to provide a pseudophakia for implantation in the anterior chamber, transiridial position, or posterior chamber.
