<p>A microsurgical irrigation/aspiration system is provided, including a controller having a pump roller head (214), actuators (376,378) for occluding fluid lines (264,274), a suction sensor (382), and means for mounting a pump cassette (200). The system cassette (300) is suitable for mounting on the controller and has an opening (256) with a pump segment (258) passing along an arcuate wall of the opening (256). When the cassette (300) is mounted on the console, the roller head (214) is engaged in the cassette opening (256) and compresses the pump segment (258) against the arcuate wall. An infusion line (264) passes through the cassette (300) and is occludable by one (376) of the actuators, and a vent line (274) connected to the pump segment (258) is occludable by a second actuator (378). A suction sensing port (392) on the cassette (200) couples with the suction sensor (382) in the controller. In an alternate embodiment, a cassette is disclosed within which both vacuum and peristaltic pumping is possible. Latching may be accomplished by a plunger attached to the sensory port of the cassette.</p> |
