An infusion cartridge includes: a case portion having a portion that defines a recess; and a film portion that has flexibility and covers an open side of the recess. The film portion and said portion of the case portion together form an inner wall that defines a storage space configured to store an infusion solution. The infusion cartridge further includes: a filling port located at the inner wall and configured to allow the infusion solution to be filled into the storage space from an outside; and a ventilation port located at the inner wall and configured to allow gas in the storage space to be discharged to the outside.

A drug preparation kit is disclosed that includes an adapter and a funnel unit. The adapter has a stud section with an in-container side and an out-container side. The stud section of the adapter is dimensioned to tightly fit into an opening of a container. The adapter has an access passage extending from the out-container side to the in-container side through the stud section. The funnel unit has a neck portion dimensioned to tightly fit into the access passage of the adapter. The funnel unit has a degassing channel formation arranged to provide a degassing channel extending from the in-container side of the stud section of the adapter to the out-container side of the stud section of the adapter when the neck portion of the funnel unit is fitted into the access passage of the adapter.

A dip tube (10) for extracting a fluid (102) from a bottle (104) comprises an adapter (12) configured to be at least partially inserted into a neck (106) of the bottle (104) and being provided with a connecting port (38) which is configured to be connected to a suction device (118), an elongated hollow withdrawal tube (14) which has a cross-sectional area that is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the adapter (12) and which is configured to protrude from the adapter (12) into a fluid receiving space (108) of the bottle (104), when the adapter (12) is inserted in the bottle neck (106), and which is arranged in fluid communication with the connecting port (38) of the adapter (12), and a sealing disc (52) extending from an outer circumferential surface (54) of the withdrawal tube (14) and being configured to abut against an inner surface (128) of the bottle (104) so as to seal the fluid receiving space (108) of the bottle (104).

A hub component for a vented connector including a generally elongate cylindrical body having a first end and a second end. The first end of the hub component includes one or more fingers or clips for engagement with one or more vents of the vented connector. The second end of the hub component can be configured for compatible engagement with a carbon dioxide detector.

A syringe adapter includes a housing having a first end and a second end positioned opposite the first end, with the housing including a connector body positioned at the first end of the housing and configured to be secured to a syringe barrel, a cannula positioned within the housing, with the cannula defining a transfer opening and a valve opening, a seal arrangement positioned within the housing and movable within the housing, and an aspiration assembly comprising an aspiration housing defining an aspiration opening, a filter received by the aspiration housing, and one-way valve received by the aspiration housing, where the valve opening of the cannula is positioned within the aspiration housing, and where air is configured to flow into the filter via the aspiration opening, into the one-way valve, and into the valve opening of the cannula.

In certain embodiments, a vial adaptor comprises a housing configured to couple the adaptor with a vial, an access channel, a regulator channel, and a regulator assembly. The access channel is configured to facilitate withdrawal of fluid from the vial when the adaptor is coupled to the vial. The regulator channel is configured to facilitate a flow of a regulating fluid from the regulator assembly to compensate for changes in volume of a medical fluid in the vial. In some embodiments, the regulator assembly includes a flexible member configured to expand and contract in accordance with changes in the volume of the medical fluid in the vial. In some embodiments, the flexible member is substantially free to expand and contract. In some embodiments, the flexible member is not partly or completely located in a rigid enclosure.

The invention relates to a fluid valve and fluid connection system, comprising a casing having a chamber with a first internal connection element and a first external connection element; comprising a first movable valve element in the chamber; and comprising an actuating element which has a fluid communication system with a second internal connection element and a second external connection element; wherein the first internal connection element cooperates with the second internal connection element and the valve element to establish or block a fluid connection between the first and second external connection elements.

An infusion adapter for connection with an infusion fluid container includes a connection portion configured to engage an injection port of an infusion fluid container, and a port configured to connect to an intravenous line, with the port in fluid communication with the connection portion. The connection portion includes a retaining ring extending radially outward from the connection portion, with the retaining ring configured to securely connect the infusion adapter to the infusion fluid container to substantially prevent disconnection of the infusion adapter from the infusion fluid container once the infusion adapter is connected to the infusion fluid container. The retaining ring includes an indicator configured to provide visualization of insertion of the connection portion into an injection port of an infusion fluid container.

A modular syringe assembly can include: a tubular syringe barrel having a proximal end and a distal end, the tubular syringe barrel defining a longitudinal axis; a plunger slidable within the tubular syringe barrel; and a cap assembly including a stopper portion and a Luer tip, the stopper portion receivable in the distal end of the tubular syringe barrel, the stopper portion defining a vent window. The cap assembly can be slidable within the tubular syringe barrel along the longitudinal axis between a sealed position where the vent window is covered by the tubular syringe barrel to prevent venting between the cap assembly and the tubular syringe barrel, and a vented position where the vent window forms a vent between the cap assembly and the tubular syringe barrel. Other features and methods are also described.

In certain embodiments, a vial adaptor comprises a housing configured to couple the adaptor with a vial, an access channel, a regulator channel, and a regulator assembly. The access channel is configured to facilitate withdrawal of fluid from the vial when the adaptor is coupled to the vial. The regulator channel is configured to facilitate a flow of a regulating fluid from the regulator assembly to compensate for changes in volume of a medical fluid in the vial. The regulator assembly can include a valve configured to transition between a closed configuration and an opened configuration.
