Hydration and calibration solution for hydrating and calibrating a sterilizable fiber-optic catheter

摘要: The present invention provides a package (82) for and method of hydrating calibrating hydratable sensor component (32) fiber-optic catheter which is useful measuring an analyte other than chloride in physiological milieu. includes manifold connected to the by plumbing (92). medical device sealed between inner wrap (16) outer (18) provide gas permeable surfaces. calibration reservoirs (84a 84b), each containing separate solution, reservoir (108) hydration solution. Each rupture plate (86) envelope (90). (92) tubes (98a 98b) sterilization (100a 100b). also deposit (109) sized so as receive all solutions be used device. directing solution means By connecting 84b) (92), directed without removing from sterile environment. further discloses preparing use.
