Plason is a medical device for the exogenous preparation of nitric
oxide (NO). Application of exogenous NO by various pathologies
(wounds, trophic ulcers, diabetic foot, unhealing wounds,
pyo-necrotic wounds) is the way to healing made easy. Nitric oxide
disinfects open wounds from bacteria, viruses, mould. This way it
starts the regeneration of tissue. NO is the strongest
disinficator. From the other types the NO penetrates through the
skin for the depth of few milimeters and improves vasoconstriction
of vessels.
An important feature of NO-containing gas flow is the fact, that if
it is possible to introduce exogenous NO to the desired spot of the
human body, it shows the same properties as endogenous NO, which
makes it´s usage very flexible for various
pathologies.
Plason is a portable device, as long as there is the possibility to
connect it to the electricity, it could be used anywhere. Usage
would include rescue services, ambulances, hospitals, clinics,
medical centers.
Design features and the composition of PLASON
Device has monoblock construction and consists of the service block
(sb), electro-hydropneumatic (EHP) supply, change manipulators,
silicone tube with the metallic tip and foot pedal. Service block
is structurally executed in the rectangular metal housing, which
consists of two parts - lower and upper.
The lower part of the housing consists of horizontal base, front
and rear panels and serves for the installation of all systems,
which ensure the work of manipulator. The base of the lower part of
the housing executed in the form of hollow airtight rectangular
cavity is tank for the cooling fluid.
On the front panel of the service block are located the intuitively
intelligible elements of control of apparatus and regimes of the
work of manipulators with the appropriate inscriptions and the
light indication:
-
key "POWER" with the illumination;
-
"START" and "STOP" with the light indicators for start and
disconnection of manipulator;
-
"MIN", "NORM", "MAX" with the light indicators for the step
control of the air flow rate;
-
the light indicator of the thermal condition of manipulator, and
also the hinged conclusion EHP of supply, threaded carbine for the
connection of silicone tube with the metallic tip and nest for the
connection of pedal. The logic of control of apparatus
automatically excludes emergency consequences under the erroneous
effects of operator.
The upper part of the housing is the removable cover of the service
block, on upper panel of which two containers with the threaded
covers at both ends for the custody of manipulators from the
delivery set are located, moreover central container is knob for
the carrying-over of apparatus. On the upper panel also is located
the nest of the built-in cooler of air- plasma flow for the
installation in it of manipulator. EHP supply by the length of 1,3
m is hinge attached on the front panel of the service block and is
executed in the form the plastic bellows, on end of which is
located the joint for the connection to the apparatus of
manipulators. Inside corrugations are located the flexible tubes,
intended for supply and outlet of that cooling the manipulator of
liquid, supplies in the manipulator of working gas - atmospheric
air even two conductors for the supply of the electric power supply
of manipulator. To the threaded carbine located to front panel the
silicone tube with a length of 1,3 m with the change metallic tip
for the output from the apparatus of the cooled NO-containing gas
flow (NO-CGF) is connected . Service block contains ensuring the
work of the manipulator of the system: the supply of atmospheric
air, cooling, electric power supply, automation, control, light
indication and sound communication.
The basic element of the device is medical manipulator, connected
by flexible electro-hydropneumatic (EHP) supply with the service
block. Manipulator is fixed on EHP supply by means of the adapter
nut and can be easily substituted both to the new (in the case of
producing the resource) and on other functional manipulator. For
the check of functioning of manipulators the apparatus is supplied
with a system of sound communication, which forms the first sound
signal during the establishment of the assigned regime of the work
of manipulator and the shorter sound signals, which signal every *0
sec. The beeps announce the operation of manipulator. For the
control of the thermal condition of manipulator the apparatus is
supplied with the built-in system of light indication and sound
communication, which begins to function with the prolonged work of
apparatus in the intermittent or continuous service. For the remote
control of the start and of the disconnection of manipulators in
the delivery set of apparatus enters the pedal, which works on the
retention.
As a result of the application as the working gas of atmospheric
air and use of the contemporary technological and technical
solutions with development and production of all systems of device
- gas, hydraulic, electrotechnical and electronic - his
construction ensures mobility, independence, reliability and
operational simplicity, which makes it possible to use the device
both in the operating and ambulance conditions and for the
dispensary care of patients.
