    摘要: A connector for medical fluid vessels includes a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug defining a lumen and mating with a cooperating connector, a mechanical fastener such as a screw thread for mating with the cooperating connector, and an outer housing positioned around the plug to form an annular space. Optionally, a cap can be provided with a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug for mating with the lumen of the connector. The connector includes one or more vent openings for drainage and air-drying of any residual fluid in the annular space when capped, as well as for breaking a vacuum to prevent fluid backflow and thus ensure more accurate dosing. In some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the outer housing. And in some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the cap.

    摘要: A dialysis machine has a connection system (450) for connecting a dialysate supply source (40) to a dialysate delivery system (51). The connection system (450) has a first section (451), which has a conduit (4510) provided at one end with a first connection device (4511) to a first dialysate supply source, and provided at the other end with a second connection device (4512). A second section (452) has a conduit (4520) provided at one end with a connection device (4521) connectable to the second connection device (4512) of the first section (451), in order to allow a series connection of the first section and the second section. The first section (451) is disconnectable from the second section (452) so that, in the disconnected state of the first section (451) from the second section (452), The connection device (4521) of the second section (452) is connectable to a second dialysate supply source.

    摘要: A protective cap engageable with a needle-free connector of an IV catheter assembly includes a collar member defining a central opening within the needle-free connector may be received and a cover member attached to the collar member so as to be pivotable or slideable relative thereto, the cover member moveable between a first position where an end connection of the needle-free connector is covered by the cover member and a second position where the end connection of the needle-free connector is uncovered from the cover member. The protective cap also includes a lever member attached to the cover member and engageable by a user to move the lever member from a non-actuated position to an actuated position. With the lever member in the non-actuated position, the cover member is in the first position, and with the lever member in the actuated position, the cover member is in the second position.

    摘要: An integrated disinfection device is described syringe assembly having two integrated disinfection units assembled to a syringe for disinfecting and sterilizing corresponding medical connectors, specifically access ports of corresponding medical connectors. The integrated disinfection unit includes a first cup and a second cup. The first cup having a chamber containing a first absorbent material, a first disinfectant or an antimicrobial agent in the first cup, and a first peelable seal. The second cup having a chamber containing a second absorbent material, a second disinfectant or an antimicrobial agent in the second cup, and a second peelable seal. A threaded connection is disposed on the bottom exterior surface of the first cup having threads that are sized and pitched to engage threads of a luer lock collar on the distal end of the syringe barrel to allow the first cup to be connected to the syringe assembly. The second cup and the syringe assembly are interlocked through interference fit or snap fit of the thumb press of the syringe and ledge of the second cup.

    摘要: A disinfection cap is described for connection to a medical connector, the disinfection cap includes a housing having a top wall and sidewall forming a cavity, disinfectant or antimicrobial agent and a ball disposed within the cavity. An outer surface of the housing includes a thread sufficient to interlock with a mating feature of a threaded connector, or more specifically a male luer connector. The cap may also include a peelable seal to prevent the disinfectant or the antimicrobial agent from exiting the cavity. The cavity of the cap may also include one or more ribs disposed on the inner surface of the cavity to retain the ball in the cavity, forming a flow channel as the ball is depressed further into the cavity. An exterior sidewall surface of the housing may include a plurality of grip members.
