A fabric sterilization tote apparatus and related methods of using and manufacturing the same is provided. The apparatus includes a flexible, bacteria-impenetrable material formed into a closable container, the closable container having a base, at least four sidewalls, and a cover, wherein an interior area of the closable container is defined by the base, the at least four sidewalls, and the cover. A bacteria-impenetrable closure is positioned between the cover and at least one of the four sidewalls, wherein the bacteria-impenetrable closure controls a sealing of the interior area of the closable container from an exterior atmosphere. In use, a medical instrument sterilization tray with the at least one medical instrument may be placed within the fabric sterilization tote apparatus after completion of a sterilization process.

A container includes a base, and a jacket adjoining the base and having a peripheral flange which defines an opening cross section which can be closed by a cover. The cover includes first snap-fit hooks distributed about a periphery of the cover for engagement in complementing first latching openings in the peripheral flange to thereby establish a form fit that prevents a movement away from the base and parallel to a vertical axis of the container in perpendicular relation to the base. The peripheral flange has four corner regions, each provided with a second latching opening for engagement of a second snap-fit hook of the cover. The second latching opening has at least one portion configured curved or inclined in relation to both a transverse axis and a longitudinal axis of the container, or has at least two straight portions extending at an inclination in relation to one another.

The present invention relates generally to medical equipment, more particularly, the use of fluid hoses coupling tanks to cannulas, as part of medical gas therapy, such as oxygen therapy. The invention describes a collection system for managing excess flexible hose that a patient might need to wear for medical reasons such as home oxygen medical therapy. It comprises a collection container, a non-spooling roller system for collecting excess hose into the collection container and extraction from the collection container, and power system to power and control the roller system.

A portable medical kit is for treatment of at least one medical condition having first and second levels of severity and includes a portable case having an interior chamber and at least two medicine holders each configured to retain a separate one of a first medicine and a second medicine within the chamber or at least one medicine holder configured to retain both of the first and second medicines within the chamber. A sheet retainer is configured to couple at least one treatment instruction sheet with the case. Further, a first visual indicator is attachable to the first medicine and a second visual indicator is attachable to the second medicine, the second indicator being readily visually distinguishable from the first indicator. Alternatively, the kit includes instructions to form the first indicator and the second indicator.

A medical device case for allowing passage of a tube from the interior to the exterior of a case such that the case is sealed against fluid intrusion whether a tube is present or absent. The medical device case generally includes a case having a first portion and a second portion hingedly connected to the first portion. The first portion and second portion may be closed together to define a compartment in which a medical device may be positioned. A tube seal assembly is included which will allow a tube leading from the medical device within the compartment to exit the case through a passage. The tube seal assembly generally includes a first seal and second seal which combine when the case is closed to seal around the tube when it is present or to seal against each other when no tube is present.

A patient maneuvering apparatus including a substantially planar body having a top surface, a bottom surface opposing the top surface, a left end, and a right end. The patient maneuvering apparatus also includes a first handle disposed at the left end of the body and a second handle disposed at the right end of the body, a mesh layer with a mesh layer thickness at least partially defining the bottom surface, a fabric layer of an absorbent material at least partially defining the top surface and with a fabric layer thickness, and a border spanning the perimeter of the body, surrounding the mesh and fabric layers, and with a border thickness greater than the mesh layer thickness and the fabric layer thickness.

Embodiments provide a water-resistant VAD bag including an upper unit having the shape of a cylinder, a lower unit having the shape of a cylinder, a controller sleeve, a battery sleeve, two inserted sleeves positioned in between the controller sleeve and the battery sleeve, an inner sleeve, and an inner layer. The upper unit includes a first elongated strap with a clip and second elongated strap without a clip, a cover on top of the upper unit with a handle sewn into the cover, and a zipper around a bottom of the cover. The lower unit includes a connecting strap and a third elongated strap with a receptacle for the clip on the first elongated strap from the upper unit, where the zipper is on the top of the lower unit, and where the connecting strap and second elongated strap are sewn into the lower unit and the upper unit.
