US 2025/0127979 A1 · DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS TO SUPPLY FLUIDS TO AN ENDOSCOPE

Abstract

Methods and systems for providing a flow of fluid to an endoscope. An illustrative container and tube set arranged and configured to couple to an endoscope may comprise a first container configured to contain a fluid and having a first port in fluid communication with a bottom portion thereof. A pressure vessel system may be in selective fluid communication with the first container. The pressure vessel system may include a manifold housing defining a cavity and including a first fluid inlet, a second fluid inlet, and a first fluid outlet. A first water supply tube may be in selective fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing and a first gas supply tube may be in operative fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing. A first flow control member may be positioned within the first fluid inlet.

A container and tube set arranged and configured to couple to an endoscope for use in an endoscopic procedure, the container and tube set comprising:

a first container configured to contain a fluid, the first container having a first port in fluid communication with a bottom portion thereof;
a pressure vessel system, the pressure vessel system including a manifold housing defining a cavity and including a first fluid inlet in selective fluid communication with the first container, a second fluid inlet, and a first fluid outlet;
a first water supply tube including a first end, a second end, and a first lumen extending therethrough, wherein the first lumen is in selective fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing and the second end of the first water supply tube is positioned external to the second container;
a first gas supply tube including a first end, a second end, and a second lumen extending therethrough, wherein the second lumen is in operative fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing and the second end of the first gas supply tube is positioned external to the second container;
and
a first flow control member positioned within the first fluid inlet.

a first container configured to contain a fluid, the first container having a first port in fluid communication with a bottom portion thereof;
and
a pressure vessel system comprising:
a tubing valve including a central lumen extending from a proximal end to a distal end thereof and one or more channels laterally spaced from the central lumen and extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the tubing valve;
a proximal gas supply tubing including a proximal end, a distal end coupled to the proximal end of the tubing valve, and a first lumen extending therethrough, wherein the first lumen is in fluid communication with the one or more channels of the tubing valve;
a proximal water supply tubing including a proximal end, a distal end coupled to the proximal end of the tubing valve, and a second lumen extending therethrough, wherein the second lumen is in selective fluid communication with the central lumen of the tubing valve and the first container;
a distal gas supply tubing including a proximal end coupled to the distal end of the tubing valve, a distal end, and a third lumen extending therethrough, wherein the third lumen is in fluid communication with the one or more channels of the tubing valve;
and
a distal water supply tubing including a proximal end coupled to the distal end of the tubing valve, a distal end, and a fourth lumen extending therethrough, wherein the second lumen is in selective fluid communication with the central lumen of the tubing valve.
