An electric wire connection structure is composed of insulated electric wires each including a core and an insulation coating covering the core. The cores of the insulated electric wires are connected to pads provided on a substrate. The insulated electric wires are arranged along a predetermined alignment direction and arranged parallel to each other. The insulation coating is removed at a part in a longitudinal direction of each of the insulated electric wires to expose the core. Exposed portions of the cores are connected to the pads, respectively. Some of the insulated electric wires are configured in such a manner that the core is exposed in an area where the insulation coatings of adjacent ones of the other insulated electric wires in the alignment direction are not removed.

A filling aid. The filling aid includes a needle housing portion including at least one tab having a starting position and a filling position, and a filling needle cradle including a filling needle, the filling needle cradle slidable connected to the needle housing portion and having a starting position and a filling position, wherein when the at least one tab on the needle housing moves from a starting position to a filling position, the filling needle cradle slides from a starting position to a filling position, and wherein when the at least one tab on the needle housing moves from a filling position to a starting position, the filling needle cradle slides from a filling position to a starting position.

An infusion pump apparatus includes a length of resilient tubing removably loadable in an infusion pump having a housing, a pumping mechanism, and a pump door. A latch member is pivotally mounted to the pump door and cooperates with a latch pin fixed on pump housing. A free-flow protection device is biased to pinch the tubing closed to stop fluid flow. The latch member has a first range of pivotal motion in a latching direction for causing the latch member to engage with the latch pin to secure the door in a closed position and a second range of pivotal motion in the latching direction for causing the latch member to actuate the free-flow protection device to unpinch the tubing and allow flow. The latch member pivots through at least a portion of the first range of pivotal motion before beginning to pivot through the second range of pivotal motion.

A coupling system for a closed fluid transfer system includes at least one coupling member and at least one counter coupling member. The coupling member includes a coupling member sealing member that has at least one reversibly openable and closable coupling member sealing member opening in the region of the covering of the fluid conduit opening facing the coupling side At least one activation member engages the coupling member sealing member. The counter coupling member includes a counter coupling member sealing member. The counter coupling member sealing member includes a reversibly openable and closable counter coupling member sealing member opening in the region of the counter coupling side end face, and is configured to move the activation member to a position with minimum distance to the fluid connection upon coupling. The counter coupling member sealing member opening is opened in a connected state by the coupling member sealing member.

A catheter drainage accessory adapted to be connected to a urinary catheter including a connector configured to be operably connected to a drainage member of a urinary catheter and a drainage conduit. At least one of the connector and conduit are made of a water flushable material.

A medical fluid line connector includes a body defining a central opening extending therethrough, a first projection extending from a first portion of the body, and a second projection extending from a second portion of the body, the second projection being circumferentially and axially offset from the first projection. The first portion of the body and second portion of the body are configured to separate from one another in response to a threshold amount of force being applied to the first projection and the second projection to rotate the first portion of the body and second portion of the body relative to one another.
