The granted patent US12036349B2 outlines a cardiopulmonary bypass perfusion system that integrates advanced technology to enhance the management of fluid reservoirs used in medical procedures. Central to this system is a fluid reservoir equipped with a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag, which allows for the identification and monitoring of the reservoir's contents. An imaging device with an identification sensor detects the RFID tag, enabling a controller to access critical information about the fluid reservoir. This system is designed to determine fluid volume, display it through a graphical user interface (GUI), and facilitate user interactions for setting alarm levels and fluid volume parameters.

Additionally, the controller is capable of utilizing the data from the RFID tag to confirm the suitability of the fluid reservoir for specific applications, detect potential equipment mismatches, and manage operational parameters. The RFID tag can store various data, including design specifications and expiration dates, which the controller can use to configure or operate associated heart-lung machines effectively. The system also features a virtual curtain in the imaging device to assist in positioning relative to the fluid reservoir, further enhancing operational efficiency. Overall, this innovative system aims to improve the safety and effectiveness of cardiopulmonary bypass procedures by leveraging RFID technology and advanced imaging capabilities.
