Abstract[English]
Embodiments herein provide a surgical cassette and surgical console for ophthalmic irrigation or aspiration during a surgical procedure, the surgical cassette comprising a plurality of valve assemblies, wherein each valve assembly comprises a retaining ring coupled to a base of the surgical cassette, and a valve body disposed within a cavity defined within the retaining ring, wherein the retaining ring provides a compression force against the valve body that in turn compresses at least a portion of a sealing material disposed on the valve body against a surface of the base. The surgical console comprises a plurality of valve drive assemblies configured to apply additional compression forces to the valve assemblies of the surgical cassette. The valve drive assemblies may be actuated individually or collectively so as to provide additional compression to selected ones of the plurality of valve assemblies.[French]
Des modes de réalisation de la présente invention concernent une cassette chirurgicale et une console chirurgicale pour l'irrigation ou l'aspiration ophtalmique pendant une intervention chirurgicale, la cassette chirurgicale comprenant une pluralité d'ensembles soupapes, chaque ensemble soupape comprenant un anneau de retenue accouplé à une base de la cassette chirurgicale, et un corps de soupape disposé à l'intérieur d'une cavité définie à l'intérieur de l’anneau de retenue, l’anneau de retenue fournissant une force de compression contre le corps de soupape qui à son tour comprime au moins une partie d'un matériau d'étanchéité disposé sur le corps de soupape contre une surface de la base. La console chirurgicale comprend une pluralité d'ensembles d'entraînement de soupape conçus pour appliquer des forces de compression supplémentaires aux ensembles soupapes de la cassette chirurgicale. Les ensembles d'entraînement de soupape peuvent être actionnés individuellement ou collectivement de façon à fournir une compression supplémentaire à des ensembles soupapes sélectionnés de la pluralité d'ensembles soupapes.
