Syringe device, system and method for delivering ozone gas
First Claim
1. A syringe device, comprising:
- a syringe having a plunger slidably engaged with a barrel, the barrel and the plunger cooperating to define a gas chamber;
a case for providing substantial sterility, the case including an opening and configure to enclose the syringe;
a fluid channel penetrates through the opening of the case when the case operatively encloses the syringe, the fluid channel in fluid communication with the gas chamber;
a first electrode and a second electrode attached to, or contacting, the syringe; and
two or more conducting elements on the case, the two or more conducting elements including a first conducting element and a second conducting element configured to directly or indirectly contact the first electrode and the second electrode, respectively,wherein the syringe and the case are configured to interface with an ozone conversion unit, and the case maintains sterility of the syringe while passing an electrical current from the first and second conducting elements to the first and second electrodes while interfaced with the ozone conversion unit to effectuate a corona discharge and produce an amount of ozone gas from an amount of oxygen gas within the gas chamber.

Abstract
In accordance with at least one exemplary embodiment, a syringe device, a method and a system for delivering a therapeutic amount of ozone are disclosed. A sterility case can enclose a syringe portion and can maintain sterility while the syringe device is interfaced to an ozone generator. A valvably-controlled fluid channel can extend from a barrel of the syringe portion through the case. Conducting elements can be attached to the case and can breach the case. The conductive elements can be connected to electrodes. The electrodes can be attached to the syringe portion. The syringe portion can be filled with oxygen gas via the valvably-controlled fluid channel. An electric current can be provided to the conductive elements from the ozone generator resulting in a corona discharge from at least one of the electrodes. The therapeutic amount of ozone can be produced from the oxygen gas and the syringe portion delivered into a sterile field without compromise.
