Fluid transfer device and packaging therefor
A fluid transfer system includes packaging having a body with a sidewall extending between an open top end and a bottom end and defining an interior cavity, and at least one protrusion extending radially inward from the sidewall into the interior cavity. The system also includes a fluid transfer device including an inner member and an outer member surrounding at least a portion of the inner member. The inner member having a first position where the inner member is configured to rotate freely relative to the outer member and a second position where rotation of the inner member relative to the outer member is restricted in a first rotational direction. The fluid transfer device also including a locking arrangement configured for cooperating with the at least one protrusion to prevent rotation of the inner member relative to the outer member upon an application of a compressive force on the packaging.
Medical connector
A medical connector includes a housing with a central axis, a hollow bore, and a narrowed passage. The connector further includes a rigid valve member configured to move along the axis of the connector as the connector moves between an open and closed configuration. The connector includes a resilient member coupled to the valve member and the housing.
Collar connector
In various embodiments, a connector system may include at least two connectors and a collar configured to detachably align the at least two connectors for coupling to a mating collar with at least two mating connectors. The collar may also be configured to at least partially disengage from the at least two connectors to allow movement of the connectors relative to each other. The relative movement may allow the connectors to couple to mating connectors that are in different configurations (than the mating collar configurations). In some embodiments, the connectors and/or mating connectors may include complementary male/female connectors. In some embodiments, the collar/mating collar may circumscribe their respective connectors and/or a perimeter of the other of the collar/mating collar. In some embodiments, the collar/mating collar may include interfacing features.
Lockable quick coupling
A simply lockable quick coupling for releasably connecting a hose to an implantable apparatus, comprises a first attachment piece that can be connected to the hose and a second attachment piece that can be connected to the apparatus, wherein the attachment pieces can be rotated relative to each other in the locked state.
Infusion set with safety device
An infusion base for attachment to a user of an infusion set comprises an adapter having a lower portion, an inner wall portion, and a gap between the lower portion and the inner wall portion. At least one of the lower portion and the inner wall portion is configured to receive an attachment.
LUER LOCK ADAPTOR
A luer lock adaptor including a housing defining an axis, an internal luer lock element having a threading, the internal luer lock element being located internally of the housing and being rotatably mounted thereto for rotation about the axis relative to the housing, in a manner which permits rotation of the luer lock element relative to the housing in a first rotation direction about the axis and limits rotation of the luer lock element relative to the housing in a second rotation direction about the axis, opposite to the first rotation direction, whereby the location of the internal luer lock element internally of the housing prevents manual access to the internal luer lock element for limiting rotation thereof in the first rotation direction.
Lockable quick coupling
A simply lockable quick coupling for releasably connecting a hose to an implantable apparatus, comprises a first attachment piece that can be connected to the hose and a second attachment piece that can be connected to the apparatus, wherein the attachment pieces can be rotated relative to each other in the locked state.
MEDICAL DEVICE
Medical devices are provided comprising a spike including proximal and distal ends, and a central axis extending from the proximal to the distal end; a valve body; a biasing body which biases the valve body; a distal tube that moves integrally with the valve body to both sides in the axial direction relative to the spike; a proximal tube fixed in the axial direction relative to the spike, the distal tube comprising a guided portion guided toward the proximal tube, and an engagement control unit which moves the guided portion toward one side in the radial direction by connection of the different medical device to the distal tube allowing the guided portion to engage with the proximal tube, and moves the guided portion toward the other side in the radial direction releasing engagement with the proximal tube when the different medical device is detached from the distal tube.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS ASSOCIATED A MEDICAL SLEEVE FOR INTRAVENOUS THERAPY LINES
A medical sleeve for intravenous therapy (IV) lines. More particularly, systems that are configured to limit the tangling of IV lines or other types of cords, lines, cables, etc. positioned within the sleeve.
MEDICAL FLUID CONNECTOR
A medical fluid connector, having a first body with a tube section with an inlet and a first thread, a second body with an outlet and a second thread that engages the first thread to move the first and second bodies between closed and opened positions. The second body has a third thread that is configured to rotate in the opposite direction in relation to said first and second threads. The connector has a closure cap with a fourth thread that, in a delivery state of the fluid connector, is detachably screwed to the third thread of the second body, wherein the fluid connector assumes the open position, and wherein the outlet is closed off in an air-permeable and liquid-tight manner by means of the closure cap.
