A thrombectomy catheter system can include a catheter configured for insertion into vasculature of a patient. The system includes a pressure chamber configured to isolate an internal volume from a surrounding environment. The system can include an infusion container including an infusion fluid therein. The pressure chamber can receive the infusion container. A drive unit can pressurize a working fluid in the pressure chamber with the infusion container received in the pressure chamber. In an example, pressurizing of the working fluid correspondingly compresses the infusion container to pressurize the infusion fluid and transfer the infusion fluid to the catheter. In an example, the infusion fluid is isolated from the working fluid by the infusion container when the working fluid is pressurized in the pressure chamber.

Aseptic filling apparatus and method

A filling aid device for filling a reservoir. The device includes a cover portion comprising a septum window; a slider beam comprising a septum cover; and a first filling aid tab attached to the slider beam, the first filling aid tab in slidable relation to the cover from a first position to a second position, wherein when the filling aid device is in an unlocked position, the septum cover is located below the septum window, wherein when the first filling aid tab is moved from the first position to the second position, the septum cover is moved from below the septum window, and the filling aid device is in the locked position.

Sealer-less plasma bottle and top for same

A top for a plasma storage container includes a top body that defines the structure of the top and seals an opening of the plasma storage container. The top also includes a first opening and a vent opening extending through the top body. A valve mechanism is located at least partially within the top body and includes an aperture therethrough. The aperture opens upon connection of a blunt cannula to provide access to the interior of the plasma storage container. The top also includes a vent filter. The vent filter allows air to vent through the vent opening during plasma collection.

PREASSEMBLED COMPONENT FOR A CONNECTABLE ELEMENT ASSEMBLY FOR THE RECONSTITUTION OF FLUID DRUGS AND NUTRIENTS WITH ACTIVE SUBSTANCE IN POWDER, LIQUID OR GEL FORM

A preassembled component (1) for connectable element assembly for the reconstitution of fluid drugs and nutrients with active substances in powder, liquid or gel form, consists of a female connector (2) with a hermetic closing valve (8) openable by pressure and automatically hermetically reclosable upon the removal of the pressure, which is directly fastened to a coupling and piercing device (3) for vials or the like.

Dual vial adapter assemblages including twin vented female vial adapters

Dual vial adapter assemblages having a triple component construction as follows: a first vented female vial adapter for telescopic mounting on a drug vial, a second vented female vial adapter for telescopic mounting on a liquid vial and a tubular liquid transfer coupler for coupling the first vented female vial adapter and the second vented female vial adapter for establishing a dual sealed lumen arrangement therebetween. The dual sealed lumen arrangement includes a central sealed liquid lumen for gravitational flow of liquid contents from a liquid vial to a drug vial and a sealed air lumen radial outward from the central sealed liquid lumen for venting air displaced from the drug vial to the liquid vial for assisting the gravitational flow of liquid contents by creating a closed system between the liquid vial and the drug vial.

Male-female adapter for a hermetically closable connector which can be bored by a male fitting and automatically sealingly reclosed, particularly for devices for containing and dispensing liquid solutions for pharmacological and/or nutritional use, and a male fitting connector provided with a male-female adapter

A male-female adapter (21) can be coupled to a hermetically closable connector (1) with external threading (13) and closing plug (6) which can be bored by pressure of a male fitting so as to form a connector (1)—adapter (21) unit which is suitable for using a female fitting. The adapter (21) comprises an external tubular body (22) with an axial extension (24) which can be hooked to the connector (1) in a rotatable and axially slidable manner, an internal tubular body (26) with terminal tangs (27, 37) axially projecting from the extremities of the external tubular body (22), a middle transversal wall (28) which integrally connects the two tubular bodies (22, 26), and two opposite sense threadings (29, 30) formed in internal portions of the external tubular body (22), which threadings are separated by said middle transversal wall (28).
