摘要:
A connecting system for providing a fluidic connection between containers, the connecting system having at least two connecting arrangements configured to produce the fluidic connection. Each container has an initial state in which the two containers are fluidically separated from one another and a connected state in which the two containers have been fluidically connected together by a relative movement of the containers. A securing device prevents relative movement of the containers in the initial state, and a receptacle is provided in which the securing device can be accommodated for enabling said relative movement. The system is usable in a method for preparing a mixture of substances in which the containers are placed in a connecting orientation with the securing device arranged between the containers in a manner preventing fluidic connection of the containers, and releasing the securing device for enabling fluidic connection the containers by a relative connecting movement.

A connector for connecting a medical injection device, including a barrel and a needle extending from a distal tip of the barrel, to a container including a septum includes an inner deformable cover and an outer rigid cover. The inner deformable cover extends along a cover axis and includes a proximal connection part configured to engage the distal tip of the barrel and a distal portion. The outer rigid cover encloses the inner deformable cover and includes a distal adaptor configured to engage the container. The outer cover is configured so the needle tip extends into the distal adaptor when the proximal connection part of the inner deformable cover engages the distal tip of the barrel. The outer rigid cover is fixed to the inner deformable cover. The inner deformable cover is compressible between a relaxed configuration and a compressed configuration.
摘要:
A connection assembly for conducting a medical liquid, comprising a connection piece, an attachment part attached to the connection piece; an opening into which the connection piece engages; and a seal element for sealing a passage between the connection piece and the attachment part. The seal element is held between the attachment part and the connection piece and has a sealing head, which closes the opening of the attachment part against the passage of liquid when the attachment part is attached to the connection piece, and a body, which adjoins the sealing head and which can be arranged in the opening at a radial distance to the attachment part.

Described are single-use dispensing devices with a dry chamber containing lyophilized material, a wet chamber containing reconstituting solution, a breaking chamber positioned between and attached to the dry chamber and a first end of the wet chamber. The breaking chamber includes a leak-proof frangible seal that prevent mixing of the lyophilized material and the reconstituting solution until the frangible seal is broken.
摘要:
A package comprising a container for holding a first substance, and a product insert for holding a second substance, at least partially inserted info said container, and where the first product and the second product can be allowed to merge by external manipulation of said package. Packaged products and methods are also provided.

A closure for dispensing one or more active agents into a container comprises a sealed or sealable chamber having a breakable wall and a hollow piston slidably mounted in a piston guide. Said hollow piston comprises an outer wall having an end in the chamber and at least one ventilation aperture. Said end has a cutting formation. Said hollow piston is slidable in the piston guide between a ventilation position in which the at least one ventilation aperture allows ventilation of the chamber and a sealed position in which the at least one ventilation aperture is sealed to prevent ventilation of the chamber and a deployed position in which the cutting formation has broken through at least a portion of the breakable wall. The outer wall has a retaining formation which engages with the piston guide to releasably resist sliding of the hollow piston between the ventilation position and the sealed position and the deployed position. The hollow piston may have an outer wall, and said outer wall has an end within the chamber, facing the breakable wall, wherein the cutting end has a first edge having a cutting formation and a gap in said cutting formation.
摘要:
The invention provides, in some aspects, a container system for medical solutions such as peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions. The invention particularly features a system which includes a first compartment that contains a first medical solution, e.g., a PD osmotic agent, and a second compartment that contains a second medical solution, e.g., a PD buffer agent. The compartments maintain their respective contents separately from one another for purposes of transport, storage and/or sterilization. However, the compartments are fluidly couplable, so that their respective contents can be combined with one another, e.g., following sterilization of the agents and prior to their introduction into the patient's abdomen. To that end, a container system can include a diffuser that is disposed in a fluid pathway between the first and second compartments, e.g., to facilitate homogeneous mixing of the first and second PD agents. That diffuser is disposed within and moves relative to a structure, such as a port that defines the fluid pathway between those compartment. Thus, for example, the diffuser can comprise a body that “floats” within that pathway-defining structure and that moves from one end to the other (and/or to from points there between), depending on a direction of solution flow through the structure.
摘要:
A connecting system for providing a fluidic connection, preferably between containers, wherein the connecting system has at least two connecting arrangements configured to provide the fluidic connection, namely a first connecting arrangement and a second connecting arrangement, each of which is fluidically sealed in an initial state, wherein the first connecting arrangement has, in particular, a film-shaped, brittle and/or unstable opening region, is deformable outside the opening region and is configured such that deformation causes the first connecting arrangement to open in the opening region.

Devices and methods are provided for sterile transfer of flowable material between a syringe and one or more flowable material receptacles or between a pair of receptacles. A syringe assembly may include a tip enclosure having a flexible shroud surrounding a syringe tip, with a shroud membrane associated with the distal end of the shroud to enclose the syringe tip. The shroud is deformable to move the tip toward the shroud membrane, which may be traversed by the tip to expose the tip for material transfers. A rigid connector may be positioned at the distal end of the shroud to securely connect the syringe assembly to a receptacle. The plunger and piston of the syringe assembly may include membranes to allow material transfer at the proximal end of the syringe assembly. An adaptor may also be provided for sterilely connecting a receptacle to a syringe or to another receptacle.
