A portable electronic fluid dispensing system can provide pre-filled, pre-primed IV bag assemblies comprising therapeutic fluids. The same fluid line and connector in the IV bag assembly can be used to fill the IV bag as is used to withdraw fluid from the IV bag and infuse such fluid into the patient. The connection points along the IV assembly, such as the connection between the IV bag and a drip chamber, or between an IV bag and tubing, or between a drip chamber and tubing, or between tubing and a closeable, resealable connector, can each be resistant to disconnection by a user. The healthcare practitioner at the patient care site is not required to attach any of these components to each other, and the healthcare practitioner at the patient care site is not required to introduce a spike into a spike port on the IV bag.

A set including a first panel, a second panel and a mechanical locking device for locking the first panel to the second panel, the mechanical locking device includes an insertion groove at the second edge surface, a flexible tongue positioned in the insertion groove and an edge tongue including a tongue groove, the flexible tongue includes a first locking surface and a second locking surface, the first locking surface is configured to cooperate with the tongue groove for locking of the first panel to the second panel in a first direction when the flexible tongue is positioned in the insertion groove in a first orientation, the second locking surface of the flexible tongue is configured to cooperate with the tongue groove for a locking of the first panel to the second panel in a first direction when the flexible tongue is positioned in the insertion groove in a second orientation.

Disclosed herein are vascular access systems and methods thereof. For example, a vascular access system includes a port configured for subdermal implantation and a single-use access device. The port can include a port hub and a catheter tube. The port hub can include an access funnel and a septum defining a pair of port-hub lumens. The catheter tube can include a septum defining a pair of catheter-tube lumens fluidly coupled to the pair of port-hub lumens. The access device can include a bifurcated hub and a pair of cannulas. The pair of cannulas defines a pair of cannula lumens coupled to a pair of access device-hub lumens of the bifurcated hub. The pair of cannulas can be configured to simultaneously insert into the access funnel and couple the pair of cannula lumens to the pair of catheter-tube lumens when the pair of cannulas is fully seated in the port hub.

A system for electronic patient care includes a hub. The hub is configured to monitor a patient-care device. The sandbox may be configured to control access to at least one of a hardware resource and a software resource. The hub is further configured to identify the patient-care device and execute an application to monitor the patient-care device. The hub executes the application within the sandbox component such that the application accesses the at least one of the hardware resource and the software resource through the sandbox component. The hub may be further configured to control the patient-care device. The hub may be further configured to receive an identification from the patient-care device and download the application from a server associated with the identification. The hub may be further configured to receive an identification from the patient-care device and update the application from a server associated with the identification.

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.

An infusion system includes a chamber for accommodating an infusion fluid and an infusion line for transferring the infusion fluid from the chamber. The infusion line includes at least a rotor module or is connected to a rotor module at least at a downstream end of the infusion line. The rotor module includes a rotor that is drivable by the infusion fluid.

A device for connecting a reservoir to a fluid pathway in a medicament delivery apparatus includes a main body having a service area housing a needle in fluid communication with the fluid pathway. A reservoir is filled with a medicament to be delivered in the fluid pathway through the needle after the latter has pierced an end surface of the reservoir. A plunger is movable within the reservoir along an axial direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the reservoir, and a piston is movable along said axial direction. A trigger mechanism is configured to drive the device to move from an initial operative configuration at which the axial movement of the piston causes an axial movement of the reservoir with respect to the main body to a final operative configuration at which the axial movement of the piston causes an axial movement of the plunger within the reservoir.
