A uniform internal diameter drainage system is disclosed. The system comprises a drainage catheter with large French drains and an internal diameter that progressively expands to a uniform internal diameter of the system. The catheter comprises a receiving port in fluid-tight communication with an engaging port of a hub, which comprises a first end, second end and flush port. The second end engages the catheter and the internal diameter of the catheter and the second end are substantially uniform. The first end comprises a receiving port that engages an engaging port of a drainage line and internal diameter of the drainage line and the first end of the system of the present invention are substantially uniform. A flush valve is disposed between the first end and second end of the present system to flush fluids from the system as needed.

A system suitable for collecting and transporting urine away from the body of a person or animal may include an assembly having a fluid impermeable casing having a fluid reservoir at a first end, a fluid outlet at a second end, and a longitudinally extending fluid impermeable layer coupled to the fluid reservoir and the fluid outlet and defining a longitudinally elongated opening between the reservoir and the outlet. The assembly can further include a fluid permeable support disposed within the casing with a portion extending across the elongated opening, and a fluid permeable membrane disposed on the support and covering at least the portion of the support that extends across the elongated opening, so that the membrane is supported on the support and disposed across the elongated opening. The assembly can further include a tube having a first end disposed in the reservoir and a second, fluid discharge end.

A surgical drain tray assembly includes a fluid impermeable first layer and a porous second layer positioned on the fluid impermeable first layer. The fluid impermeable first layer includes a drain outlet, a basin, and a sloping surface angled toward the basin, the drain outlet being positioned within the basin. The porous second layer may be formed of a foam material and includes a top work surface. Fluids spilled onto the work surface pass through the porous second layer to the fluid impermeable first layer. The sloping surface of the fluid impermeable first layer conveys the fluids toward the basin for draining through the drainage outlet.

Embodiments of the present invention describe a disposable drain bulb for the collection of fluid and other exudate. A disposable drain bulb in accordance with one embodiment comprises a drain interface with a one way valve for connection to a drain line through which the drain interface receives fluid and other exudate, the drain interface sealed with a capsule, and a drain body forming an internal reservoir into which the drain interface passes and that contains an absorbable material under vacuum while the drain interface remains in a closed state.

The present disclosure relates to an automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) system using gravity to deliver fluid from one or more source dialysate bags to the patient as the destination. The present disclosure further relates to a load cell protection assembly that prevents the load cells associated with the delivery of fluid in the system from experiencing an overload condition in either the down direction or the up direction, while maximizing safety and efficiency of the system while minimizing excess cost and complexity.

This disclosure relates to systems for supporting medical fluid bags and related methods. In some implementations, a system includes a curved tray configured to support a medical fluid bag during a medical treatment, the curved tray comprising a plurality of openings therethrough, a medical fluid collection basin removably coupled to the curved tray and configured to collect medical fluid leaked from the medical fluid bag during the medical treatment, a leak detector coupled to a surface of the medical fluid collection basin and configured to detect fluid as leaked from the medical fluid bag into the medical fluid collection basin, and a control unit configured to receive treatment data related to the medical treatment.
