A filter cassette which is part of a filter system can be fastened to a sterile container lid. The sterile container lid serves to close a sterile container and to make a gas exchange possible between the container exterior and the container interior, without recontaminating the container material. In addition, the filter system fulfils a valve function. In order to center the filter cassette with respect to the sterile container lid, a first centering portion is provided on the filter cassette. The first centering portion interacts with a second centering portion on the sterile container wall section when the filter cassette is inserted into the sterile container lid.

Users are able to fold tourniquet in a manner that allow the tourniquet to be removed from the pouch and used nearly instantaneously.

Disclosed is a catheterization package including catheterization-package components and a catheterization tray configured to facilitate a catheterization procedure. The catheterization-package components include a urinary catheter fluidly connected to a urine-drainage bag and a sampling-port access device configured to fluidly connect to a urine-sampling port of the urinary catheter or the urine-drainage bag for aseptic collection of one or more urine samples. The catheterization tray includes at least a first compartment, a second compartment, and a third compartment configured to hold the catheterization-package components. The first compartment is configured to hold the urinary catheter. The second compartment is connected to the first compartment by an intercompartment connection. The second compartment is configured to hold the urine-drainage bag. The third compartment is configured to hold the sampling-port access device. Step-by-step instructions are incorporated into the catheterization tray to facilitate the catheterization procedure. Also disclosed are methods for the catheterization package.

A medical device and a storage box for a medical article are provided, where the medical device at least includes a main case having at least two exposed chamber outer walls and an accommodation compartment for accommodating a medical article. The at least two exposed chamber outer walls enclose an accommodation chamber to accommodate a functional module. The accommodation compartment is disposed on the main case and adjacent to the accommodation chamber. The accommodation compartment includes at least one exposed compartment outer wall, and the at least one exposed compartment outer wall is connected to the at least one chamber outer wall of the main case. The medical device enables the medical article to be well accommodated in the accommodation compartment, and the accommodation compartment can be flexibly configured onto the medical device to decrease the space occupied by the accommodation compartment.

An orthopedic implant carrier system has a carrier with a front cover, a back cover, and a linking member pivotally connected to the front cover and the back cover, such that the front cover and back cover are opposably movable about the linking member, with respect to each other. At least one insert connector is connected to the carrier, with an insert releasably connectable to the at least one insert connector. The insert has a pocket, with a plurality of orthopedic implants organized by implant type, size, and length.

A method of packaging a medical device, such as an infusion set (10), comprises forming a base (28) having a cavity (29), placing the medical device (10) within the cavity (29) of the base (28), applying an instruction guide (24) to an inner surface (22) of a peelable cover (20), applying adhesive (26) between the base (28) and the inner surface (22) of the peelable cover (20) surrounding the instruction guide (24), and sealing the peelable cover (20) to the base (28) via the adhesive (26).

A convenience kit for sterilizing and delivering liquids into the safety of a sterile environment inside a plastic bag (which can be disposed in a field environment) wherein a so sterilized liquid is dispensed into a vessel which is capped and sealed before removal from the bag. The convenience kit can be provided in a solitary format or, as a subkit combined with other associated items in a more inclusive convenience kit. In short, convenience kits made according to the present invention provide opportunity for accomplishing an aseptic liquid sterilizing transfer, a task which is commonly associated with on-hand capability of a laminar flow hood, in field environments and other areas which are remote from facilities having laminar flow hoods.

A tracking device includes an antenna, a printed energy storage device, a transmitter powered by the printed energy storage device, and control circuitry configured to control the transmitter to transmit, using the antenna, information indicating a status detected by a sensor.

Electronic devices that detect their position and/or orientation with respect to earth's frame of reference are described. A coupler can removeably maintain the electronic devices in physical proximity of one another. Each electronic device can have a housing and the coupler can be included on the housing and arranged to physically connect the housing of the electronic device to the housing of at least one other electronic device. Alternatively, the coupler can be a packaging that maintains the electronic devices in physical proximity of one another. Each electronic device can be calibrated using the orientation or position information obtained by other electronic devices maintained by the coupler. Further, each electronic device can include a power source that remains inactive until the device is ready for use.
