摘要:
This invention is directed to a coupler which comprises an actuator housing and a plunger housing each formed with a passageway for transmitting fluid entering an indwelling catheter to a collection bag. As the housings are connected together, a plunger located in the passageway of the plunger housing is moved from a closed position to an open position by an actuator mounted in the actuator housing in such a way that a seal is continuously maintained in the plunger housing to prevent the escape of fluids from its passageway. A quick-release locking mechanism maintains the two housings in a locked position when the plunger is in the open position, and may be easily activated to permit separation of the housings from one another when it is desired to empty or replace the collection bag.

A one-way valve includes a valve support flange for facilitating attachment of the valve to a host device, a valve tube for facilitating coupling of the valve at one end to a delivery vessel or a delivery system, and a valve sheathing formed substantially tubular and collapsible upon itself, the sheathing open at one end and connected at the other end to the valve tube.

A method of producing a medical catheter having a catheter body part and a catheter tip in one integrated part by injection moulding and a catheter produced by the method. A multicomponent moulding technique for producing a catheter, e.g. a catheter made from two materials with different characteristics, is preferred. Such a catheter may be used for urinary catheterisation and for similar purposes of draining a bodily fluid.

A disposable re-useable urine receptacle that, when used, provides comfortable, discrete, and safe urine collection and containment until the collected urine can be properly disposed of, either by the wearer or someone else. It achieves these goals by conforming to the wearer's body, expanding to a predetermined self-supported shape, and disallowing side wall-to-wall adherence between fillings. An apparatus for automated disposal of urine is also disclosed.

A valve assembly for controlling the flow of fluid through a tube by pinching the tube to prevent fluid flow. The valve assembly includes a valve that receives the tube in a passage between a plunger and a bar. A spring urges the plunger toward the bar to pinch the tube closed. The bar focuses the pinching force of the plunger to reduce the pinching force required to prevent fluid flow. The valve assembly also includes a caliper for opening, locking open and closing the valve and that is attached to the valve with a cable. To open and close the valve, a main lever and lock lever, respectively are rotated in the same direction.

A drainable ostomy pouch comprising a first (1) or proximal and a second (2) or distal side wall of flexible sheet material sealed to each other for defining a cavity therebetween for receiving human stomal discharge through an aperture (8a) in the proximal side wall and an elongate drainage portion extending downwardly in a longitudinal direction and ending in a drainage opening (5) extending transversely to the longitudinal direction, a first (6) or proximal and a second (7) or distal flexible stiffening strip of relatively stiff material such as PET, nylon, high density polyethylene or low density polyethylene extending immediately adjacent to and along said drainage opening and being attached for instance by heat sealing or adhesion to the outer surface of the first and second side walls, respectively, of said drainage portion, the pouch further comprising a Velcro strip 9 on the wall 1 and a Velcro strip 10 on a flap 13 for securing a coil comprising the first and second stiffening strips rotated upwards three times.

The present invention is a method of producing a medical catheter having a catheter body part and a catheter tip in one integrated part by injection moulding and a catheter produced by the method. The invention is in particular concerned with the use of multicomponent moulding technique for producing a catheter, e.g. a catheter made from two materials with different characteristics. Such a catheter may be used for urinary catheterisation and for similar purposes of draining a bodily fluid.

The invention concerns an outlet valve system for a collection bag for urine from urine-incontinent or urostomy operated humans. Collection bags for urine are well known and typically consist of plastic sheets which are joined by welding along their peripheries to form a cavity between the sheets in which the urine is collected. When out of bed the user normally carry the bag by the lower part of the leg and in order to discharge urine from the bag, the bag is supplied with an outlet valve system at its lowermost part. The valve system comprises a base member which is secured to the collection bag and a movable member which is sealingly fixed to the base member; the base member has an open conduct leading into the cavity of the collection bag and conducting liquid to the movable member. The movable member has a discharge tube which is rotatably displaceable with respect to the base member and which is rotated out of the plane defined by the outer surface of the collection bag. The movable member has at least one open position and at least one secured closed position where the discharge tube is pointing upwards. In the open position is the discharge tube rotated to a position situated between more than 90° and less than 180° from upright vertical and here the discharge tube is secured.
