Fluid flow control devices for medical use are disclosed. On one end, a fluid flow control device is configured to be attached to a manifold that is in-line with an infusion setup and the other end of the fluid flow control device is configured to be attached to a sampling or infusion device, such as a syringe. In one aspect, a fluid flow control device has an external casing and an internal casing which is configured to be movably housed within the external casing. The internal casing mates with a fluid outlet on the external casing and upon separating the internal and external casings a fluid flow path is established.

A bleed-back control valve is provided having a sidearm and an integrated three-way stopcock switching between two alternative fluid paths. One of the alternative fluid paths communicates with an inline pressure transducer embedded in the wall of the sidearm. The bleed-back control valve also includes a purge valve located near the blunted apex of a conical seal located in the main valve body. The purge may be opened to expel air from the space around the blunted apex.

A device for controlling a fluid flow comprises: a housing) with which at least a first connection port, a second connection port and a third connection port are fluidly communicated; a closure means disposed within the housing; and a rotatable actuation means configured to selectively open or close the first connection port, the second connection port and the third connection port by operating the closure means; wherein the actuation means is configured to have at least five rotation positions such that the device can achieve at least five respective different fluid flow states. Also disclosed is a set for a peritoneal dialysis comprising such a device. The device is particularly suitable to be used as a patient connector for a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), which connector is particularly suitable for use in Point-of-Care (POC) CAPD to manage preparation of CAPD solution and use of the CAPD solution.

An exemplary compounding system and device for mixing materials can include a housing, a first material source and a second material source. A first fluid line can be operationally connected to the housing and configured to transport a first volume of fluid per unit time from the first material source to a final container. A second fluid line can be operationally connected to the housing and configured to transport a second volume of fluid per unit time from the second material source to the final container. The device can also include a pump system including, a first pump having a first rotor and a first platen which secures the first fluid line between the first rotor and the first platen, the first pump being configured to move the first volume of fluid through the first fluid line, and a second pump having a second rotor and a second platen which secures the second fluid line between the second rotor and the second platen, the second pump being configured to move the second volume of fluid through the second fluid line. A first platen lock can be provided and can be rotated in a first direction to lock the first platen in a closed position relative to the first rotor, and wherein rotation of the first rotor draws the first material source through the first fluid line. The pump system can also be configured such that the volume of fluid per unit time delivered by the first and second pumps is different, and/or where the first and second pumps have different head characteristics.

Hemostasis valves and hemostasis valve systems are provided. A hemostasis valve can include a valve member, wherein the valve member includes a first sealable opening disposed through a first portion of the valve member and a second sealable opening disposed through a second portion of the valve member. The valve member may also include three or more sealable openings. A hemostasis valve system may include a hemostasis valve and another medical device. The hemostasis valve may be releasably coupleable to the other medical device.

The present invention comprises methods and devices for generating and providing contrast medium for sonography of structures such as ducts or cavities. The invention provides for creation of a contrast medium comprising detectable acoustic variations between two phases, for example, a gas and a liquid. Sonography is the primary means of imaging but other conventional detection means may also be employed with the present invention.

Disclosed herein is an intravascular catheter assembly, including a catheter adapter having a distal end; a proximal end; a first lumen arranged between and in fluid communication with the distal end and the proximal end; a catheter arranged at the distal end of the catheter adapter and in fluid communication with the lumen; and a first side port in fluid communication with the lumen; a first fluid conduit having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end of the fluid conduit coupled to the side port; and a connector having a proximal end, a distal end connected to the fluid conduit, and a second lumen therethrough, the connector comprising a manually-actuable valve.

Various aspects of the subject disclosure relate to a compounder system having a cartridge that includes controllable fluid pathways. One or more rotary piston pump/valves may be used to move fluid and/or gasses through the various fluid pathways of the cartridge. For example, the cartridge may include a dedicated rotary piston pump/valve for each process that moves fluid and/or gas through the cartridge. When turning, the rotary piston pump/valve acts as a pump to move the fluid or gas, and when the rotary piston pump/valve stops turning, it effectively acts as a shutoff valve, preventing any fluid flow. Magnetic couplers for the cartridge may be provided on a pump head of the compounder system.

A universal cap for both male and female connections includes configuration of structural elements allowing the cap to be opened at either end. Optionally, an inner wall feature allows each end of a cap structure to function as its own cap, or perform a separate capping function. For example, should one end of the cap structure be in use, and the other end of the cap structure be open to air, the end of the cap structure in use, or performing the capping function, is not compromised. Optionally, dual ended cap structure includes features designed to maintain the pressure in a closed system, for both the male and female luer lock ends.

In general, one aspect disclosed features a medical device, comprising: a four-way medical stopcock, comprising: a body defining a cock barrel and comprising: a first stem having a first port, a second stem having a second port, and a side stem having a side port; and a rotatable cock disposed within the cock barrel, wherein: the cock places the first port and second port in fluid communication when the cock is in a first position, and the cock places the first port, second port, and side port in fluid communication when the cock is in a second position; and a needleless valve having a valve stem, wherein the valve stem is disposed within the side stem such that an internal volume defined by the side stem, the valve stem, and the cock when the cock is in the third position, is approximately 0.09 ml.
