Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2014160302A1] The present disclosure is directed in various embodiments to membrane switches generally. More specifically, a membrane switch is provided that may be exposed to sterilization processes, including vacuum processes without damaging the switch. Thus, the inventive membrane switch comprises a gas permeable, liquid impermeable membrane layer. In various embodiments, the membrane switch may be used in rotational atherectomy systems. However, the membrane switch of the present invention has wide application beyond rotational atherectomy.
