CHEST TUBE MEMBRANE
An integrated chest evacuation tube that is specifically configured to function as a closed tube when inserted and retained inside of a chest cavity to provide enhanced benefits over the state of the art. The integrated chest evacuation tube generally includes a fluid impermeable membrane fixedly attached to a single flexible hollow tube. The fluid impermeable membrane is interposed between an inlet port and an outlet port or optionally at said outlet port of a chest tube. The membrane is configured to seal the tube's passageway from any transfer of the fluid. The impermeable membrane is adapted to be ruptured by a force other than pressure from said fluid.
METHOD, DEVICE AND KIT FOR THE PREPARATION OF PRP
This invention discloses a method, device and kit for the preparation of PRP.

CANNULATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS
One aspect of the invention provides a system including: a cannula and a valve. The valve includes: a first port coupled to the cannula; a second port adapted and configured for coupling to tubing; a third port comprising a resilient pierceable seal; and a central cylindrical plug received between the first port, the second port, and the third port. The central plug includes a through-channel adapted and configured to selectively couple two of the ports. In a first position, the first port, the third port, and the through-channel are coupled such that a dilator can pass: from outside the rotary valve; through the pierceable seal; through the first port; and out a distal end of the cannula. In a second position, the first port and the second are port are fluidically coupled.
Breaker device for acting onto a closure element of a medical tubing
A breaker device for acting onto a closure element (40) of a medical tubing (4) comprises: a drive arrangement (2) having a drive device (20), a drive element (23) driven by the drive device (20) and at least one locking element (22A, 22B), and a breaker module (3) which is arrangeable on the drive arrangement (2). The breaker module (3) comprises a housing (30), a movable part (31) movably arranged on the housing (30), a breaking element (315) for acting onto the closure element (40) of the tubing (4) and a locking mechanism (32A, 32B). The breaker module (3) in an attached state is placed on the drive arrangement (2) and is locked to the drive arrangement (2) via the locking mechanism (32A, 32B) engaging with the at least one locking element (22A, 22B), the drive element (23) being in operative connection with the movable part (31) in the attached state such that a movement of the drive element (23) causes the movable part (31) to move for actuating the breaking element (315). The breaker module (3) is releasable from the drive arrangement (2) by disengaging the locking mechanism (32A, 32B) from the at least one locking element (22A, 22B). Herein, the locking mechanism comprises at least one actuation member (32A, 32B) which is displaceable between a first position and a second position with respect to the housing (30), wherein the at least one actuation member (32A, 32B) is constituted to act, in the first position, onto the movable part (31) to force the movable part (31) into a position in which the movable part (31) can be brought into operative connection with the drive element (20) when arranging the breaker module (3) on the drive arrangement (2), and to engage, in the second position, with the at least one locking element (22A, 22B) of the drive arrangement (2) when the breaker module (3) is in the attached state.
