TREATMENT FLUID PREPARATION SYSTEM
A system for purifying incoming fluid is provided that is modular and includes a heat exchanger module, an evaporator-condenser module and a compressor. The system is configured to facilitate passive drainage of the purified fluid for collection. The system components are arranged in a stacked configuration to facilitate gravitational flow of the purified fluid such that the purified fluid drains passively for collection. A system for preparation of ready-to-use treatment fluid is also provided including the modular fluid purification system, a preparation station and a coupling device. The components are configured to be retained in a portable carrier that is manually operable for improved access to and mobility of the components. A coupling device for use in connecting flow channels of a plurality of components and for use in preparing ready-to-use dialysate is also provided, A further system for preparation of a receptacle and a ready-to-use treatment fluid in the receptacle is also provided.
Vial supporter for medicament pump
Devices and methods for filling a medicament cartridge of a pump, including a user-wearable, ambulatory infusion pump. A device for supporting a medicament cartridge can comprise a body portion resembling a tray, with recesses disposed therein to support one or more of a cartridge body, cartridge tubing, interconnect fitting, and vial adapter. The recesses of the tray may be shaped to correspond to that component intended to be placed in its respective recess so to provide a visual indication to a user how to couple and align the various components necessary to fill the cartridge.

PARENTERAL NUTRITION FORMULATION WITH OPTIMIZED AMINO ACID AND GLUCOSE CONTENT
The present disclosure relates to a sterile medical product for parenteral nutrition comprising a polymeric container having at least a first and a second chamber which are separated by a non-permanent peel seal, wherein the first chamber contains a composition of amino acids and optionally electrolytes, and wherein the second chamber contains a dextrose solution, and wherein the product is characterized by a high protein (nitrogen) content per volume. The reconstituted solution is configured to be administered peripherally or centrally for the treatment of patients suffering from malnutrition and/or having a need for increased uptake of amino acids.

Medical transport container for pharmaceuticals
The present invention is directed to a medical device, specifically, a medical transport container for transporting blood and/or pharmaceuticals, e.g. human or animal medication, which are temperature sensitive, and comprises a forming gel encapsulated within the main storage compartment, which may comprise of one or more removable dividers to accommodate a plurality of blood vials or pharmaceuticals being cooled by a refrigerating element and/or the forming gel, which morphs and conforms to hold the container's inner contents (i.e. pharmaceutical(s), blood, test tube and/or vial(s) and the like) firmly in place. Accordingly, the content(s) may be transported over long distances in a sterile climate-controlled environment, where the temperature can be preset and consistently maintained for much longer duration using a plurality of power sources, e.g. battery pack with one or more rechargeable batteries supplying power for the trip's duration, in essence preserving the transported content's lifespan and viability.
Polymeric film comprising vibration dampening and barrier properties
The presently disclosed subject matter is directed generally to multilayer films suitable for use in forming pouches, such as (but not limited to) bioprocessing pouches. When used in the formation of solution pouches, the disclosed films help prevent or reduce the number of seal failures, such as during transportation or use. The disclosed films comprise first and second vibration dampening layers and first and second barrier layers.

METHOD FOR PROTECTING AND UNPROTECTING THE FLUID PATH IN A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT ENCLOSURE
A controlled environment enclosure comprises a robotic arm manipulation system used to protect and unprotect a fluid path and a swab within the controlled environment enclosure. The apparatus allows the fluid path to be protected against dangerous decontamination vapors and chemicals before the controlled environment enclosure is decontaminated. The apparatus allows the fluid path to be unprotected without the use of gloves or other means that degrade the integrity of the controlled environment enclosure when decontamination is completed. The apparatus and method allow for the protecting, unprotecting and decontaminating sequences to be automated. In some embodiments the fluid path comprises a fill needle that can removably and aseptically be sealed with a disposable monolithic injection moulded polymeric fill needle sheath. The apparatus and method further allow for the use of a swab disposed in a swab holder that is aseptically and removably sealable to a swab cap to protect the swab against decontamination vapors.
