The present invention refers to a system and method for opening a concentrate container without the need for a human to directly handle the concentrate container and connecting the concentrate container to a blood treatment device. Aspects of the invention are directed to a container for concentrate and a blood treatment device.

The invention relates to a biopharmaceutical container comprising: a connector to be secured to a chamber connector; a bag serving as a receptacle, one part of which is secured to the connector; and a flexible tube tucked inside the bag, which tube can extend out from the bag through the connector. The biopharmaceutical container, wherein: the tube forms part of the bag, the tube is a neck of reduced size extending from the body of the bag, and the aforementioned part of the bag that is secured to the connector is a fold in the wall of the bag, said wall of the bag forming the body of the bag on one side of the fold and the tube on the other side of the fold.

A device for disinfection of a medical injection port is provided. The device includes a capping portion having an inner surface, a hollow portion having an inner surface, a proximal opening, and a distal opening, a connector coupling the capping portion of the device to the hollow portion thereof, and a disinfecting absorbent material disposed inside the capping portion of the device. The connector permits movement of the capping portion between a fully-seated position on the hollow portion of the device, and a position apart from the proximal opening thereof to permit ingress to the medical injection port.

A medicinal liquid supply control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a reservoir located on a second channel to define an internal space that stores a medicinal liquid, an inlet hole and an outlet hole being formed in one portion of an outer surface of the reservoir and connected to the internal space, and a reservoir support part on which the one portion of the reservoir is fixed, an inlet connection hole connected to the inlet hole and an outlet connection hole connected to the outlet hole being formed at the reservoir support part.

A shield for a port closure of a medical container includes housing comprising two movably connected housing segments, each having a hollow interior and an open end, movable between open and closed orientations. A lock assembly is structured to define a fixed locked connection between the housing segments in the closed orientation and includes first and second lock members connected within different ones of the housing segments in a non-accessible location when the housing segments are in the closed orientation. A retainer is disposed within the housing in a capturing orientation relative to the closure therein, concurrent to the closed orientation. A latch assembly is connected to the housing segments and structured to retain said housing segments in said closed orientation, independently of and concurrently with the fixed locked connection of the lock assembly.

The invention relates to a packaging in the form of an infusion bag, having a connector for a vial, said connector having a spike for piercing the septum of the vial to establish a fluid connection to the inner volume of the infusion bag. The spike is designed to be rotatable. When the vial is rotated, the spike is rotated and the fluid connection between the vial and the inner volume of the infusion bag is opened.

An exhaust collection bag for cryogenic treatment is described herein and may generally comprise a first layer and a second layer attached along a periphery and forming an enclosed volume. The periphery defines four radiused corners and an extension member. A tubing connector may be positioned along the first layer and extend through the first layer and may also be located along a centerline of the first layer and in proximity to a bottom edge of the first layer. A drain closure may also be positioned along the first layer and located away from the centerline and in proximity to the bottom edge.

A balloon type liquid medicine injector for continuously injecting a small amount of liquid medicine into a body of a patient is disclosed as to be easily assembled and to prevent unnecessary dead space while being inflated after a liquid medicine is injected, so as to be miniaturized. When a tube body is provided outside a fixed pipe, both ends of the tube body are folded and inserted into both ends of the fixed tube, to remove the dead space while being inserted inside the case. In addition, in a state where the both ends of the tube body are folded and inserted into the both ends of the fixed tube, an injection mechanism for injecting the liquid medicine or a stopper mechanism are coupled while pressing the tube body folded inward, so that a separate packing is unnecessary and the airtightness is maintained.

A device comprising a bag made of flexible material and defining a containment volume of a liquid; at least a first duct associated with the bag and provided with a first transit port placed inside the containment volume for the introduction of an operating liquid inside it; at least a second duct associated with the bag and provided with a second transit port placed inside the containment volume for the outflow of the operating liquid to the outside; at least a third duct associated with the bag and provided with a third transit port placed inside the containment volume for the reintroduction of the operating liquid inside it; and at least a fourth duct associated with the bag and provided with a fourth transit port placed inside the containment volume for the outflow to the outside of the air present in the containment volume itself and in the operating liquid.

The present invention relates to a method and a system (400) for filling a closed container (200) with a fixative solution. The system comprises a container (200) comprising a container body (230) for receiving a biological specimen, a lid (220) for selectively closing the container body (230) and a port (100) forming a unidirectional barrier in a direction from the inside (IC) to the outside (OC) of the closed container (200). The system further comprises a dispensing apparatus (500) having a filling nozzle (300) for dispensing the fixative solution. The filling nozzle (300) is relatively moveable with respect to the container (200) between a retracted position and a filling position to fill the container (200) with the fixative solution.
