A fluid handling cassette, such as that useable with an automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) cycler device or other infusion apparatus, may include a generally planar body having at least one pump chamber formed as a depression in a first side of the body and a plurality of flowpaths for a fluid that includes a channel. A patient line port may be arranged for connection to a patient line and be in fluid communication with the at least one pump chamber via at least a first one of said flowpaths, and an optional membrane may be attached to the first side of the body over the at least one pump chamber. In one embodiment, the membrane may have a pump chamber portion with an unstressed shape that generally conforms to the depression of the at least one pump chamber in the body and is arranged to be movable for movement of the fluid in a useable space of the at least one pump chamber. One or more spacers may be provided in the at least one pump chamber to prevent the membrane from contacting an inner wall of the at least one pump chamber. The patient line, a drain line, and/or a heater bag line may be positioned to be separately occludable in relation to one or more solution lines that are connectable to the cassette.

A system for enhanced sealing of coupled medical lines includes a male fitting, a female fitting, and a flexible annular collar seal. The seal provides a sealing function to an open end of the connector. The male fitting is made of medical grade materials and includes a male connector fluidly coupled to a first line. The female fitting is made of medical grade materials and including a female connector fluidly coupled to a second line and configured to mate with the male connector. The seal is made of a medical grade polymer coupled to one or both the male fitting and the female fitting.

A protective membrane for a medical luer connector may include a cover having an upper surface, a lower surface having a mating portion for coupling to a mating surface of the medical luer connector, and an outer perimetal surface. The protective membrane may further include a flexible pull tab extending from the outer perimetal surface of the cover, and an adhesive overlaying the mating portion of the lower surface for adhering to the mating surface of the medical luer connector.

A disposable medical vacuum drainage bag includes a flexible enclosure made of a flexible material. The flexible enclosure is configured to define an interior chamber. The flexible enclosure has a first fluid port and a second fluid port. The flexible enclosure has a collapsed state and an expanded state. A framework is located in the interior chamber. The framework has a plurality of frame structures configured to rotate in unison about separate rotational axes between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration, wherein the collapsed configuration facilitates the collapsed state of the flexible enclosure and the expanded configuration facilitates the expanded state of the flexible enclosure. An actuator is coupled to the framework. The actuator is configured to rotatably transition the plurality of frame structures between the collapsed configuration and the expanded configuration.

In a syringe, which is a prefilled syringe, when a cap body is attached to a cylindrical portion, a first sealing section is compressed radially inward by an inner peripheral surface constituting an opening of the cylindrical portion, thereby sealing a distal end section of a flow path in a liquid-tight manner, and a second sealing section is compressed radially inward by an inner peripheral surface of a proximal end section of the cylindrical portion, thereby sealing a proximal end section of the flow path in a liquid-tight manner.

A female-disinfecting cap and a method for applying the female-disinfecting cap. The cap threadingly accepts a needleless injection site, and applies an antiseptic agent to the needleless injection site. The cap includes a cap body with an opening for accepting the needleless injection site. The cap has an absorbent material that holds an antiseptic agent.
