A gravity fed peritoneal dialysis (“PD”) machine includes: a frame configured to be set on a supporting surface; at least one load cell; a scale platform supported by the frame via the at least one load cell positioned between the frame and the scale platform; a drain container support in mechanical communication with and extending downwardly from the scale platform, the machine configured such that when the frame is set on the supporting surface, at least one fresh PD fluid supply container is supportable by the scale platform above the at least one load cell and at least one used PD fluid drain container is supportable by the drain container support below the at least one load cell, so that a combined weight of fresh PD fluid and used PD fluid may be sensed by the at least one load cell.

A dialysis system may include a blood circuit, a cassette, a subsystem having a processor, a sensor, and a blood pumping mechanism, a housing in which the subsystem is arranged, a movable support arranged in the housing and configured to hold the sensor and/or the blood pumping mechanism of the subsystem, a cassette holder configured to removably receive the cassette, and a loading system. The loading system may be configured to move the movable support, e.g. by an axial movement, to a first position and to a second position relatively to the housing while the cassette holder is fixedly arranged in the housing. The loading system may have an electric motor controlled by the processor, a drive assembly coupled to the electric motor, and a guiding assembly configured to cooperate with the drive assembly.

A device and method for holding coils of medical tubing is provided to simplify packaging and organizing the various coils of medical tubing needed for a medical device. This will make it easier for the patient to manipulate each coil of tubing, particularly in a home setting involving a home dialysis machine operated by the patient. The tube holding device advantageously reduces the probability of entanglement and groups the coils of tubing individually. It also mitigates and/or eliminates the need for tape to bundle the coils. Specifically, benefits of the tube holding device according to the system described herein include: reduced cost; ease-of-use; prevention of entanglement of coils of tubing; ease of packaging and shipping; and does not require packaging tape to bundle tubing.

Examples of a module for housing unrelated electronic and electromechanical equipment for use during surgery. The module can include a lower section and a tower-like upper section. The lower section can house unrelated electronic and electromechanical equipment. The tower-like upper section can be located on top of the lower section. A water-resistant cowling can enclose at least a portion of the lower section and the tower-like upper section. A cartridge containing one or more ultraviolet-C producing lights can be protectively housed within the tower-like upper section. The cartridge containing one or more ultraviolet-C producing lights can be configured to emerge upward from a top of the tower-like upper section to substantially seat itself on the top of the tower-like upper section when activated allowing the ultraviolet-C light to disinfect the patient and staff-contacting upper surfaces of the equipment in the operating room.

A noise reduction structure for a ventilation treatment device and the ventilation treatment device are provided. The noise reduction structure comprises a first micropore plate; the first micropore plate has a first plate surface and a second plate surface which are opposite to each other, the first plate surface is used for forming a first chamber; the second plate surface is used for forming an air passage such that air in the air passage flows along the second plate surface; the first micropore plate has a plurality of first micro-vias through which the first chamber communicates with the air passage. The noise reduction structure is wide in noise reduction frequency band, may effectively reduce aerodynamic noise in the air passage, and improves the satisfaction degree of a patient using the ventilation treatment device.

A medical fluid pump with an upper housing shell, a lower housing shell and a front lid pivotably hinged to the lower housing shell. A printed circuit board with essential control devices is arranged in the upper housing shell, and an energy storage is provided and fixed in the lower housing shell.

A medical pump system includes at least one medical fluid pump of a first type and at least one medical fluid pump of a second type. The medical fluid pumps can be assembled or arranged vertically, with one of the medical fluid pumps positioned above the other. Each medical fluid pump has a movable front flap with an integrated display and operating elements. The medical fluid pumps can be directly connected to one another in a vertical arrangement, or arranged in a vertical arrangement with the aid of a carrying or holding device. When the medical fluid pumps are vertically arranged, the displays and operating elements of the respective medical fluid pumps are aligned vertically.

A system includes a drug delivery device, a user device including a camera, and a case for the user device. The case includes a slot adapted to receive the drug delivery device, as well as a first wall, a second wall, and two side walls defining a space therebetween that is configured to receive the user device. When the user device and the drug delivery device are inserted into the case, the case is configured to align the drug delivery device and the camera of the user device such that the camera can capture images of at least one feature of the drug delivery device from one or both of a predefined distance and a predefined orientation.

An aerosol provision system includes one or more receptacles each forming a respective central space, a base adapted to support the or each receptacle, the or each receptacle being removable from the base and at least a first airflow generator, operable to draw air through at least a first aerosol generator, wherein the base includes one or more outlets through which, in operation, aerosolized payload is directed to flow from the base into the central space of a respective receptacle and the or each receptacle comprises a first opening through which the user can inhale the aerosolized payload.

A device for supporting IV tubing along a distance and suspending the tubing above the floor includes a support arm and a cradle. The cradle is positioned along a shaft of the support and is configured to receive a length of IV tubing therein.
