Abstract: A patient fluid collection system is disclosed which includes a fluid collection reservoir, a cover for the reservoir and a liner within the reservoir comprising an enlargeable or expandable wall portion such that the wall portion may expand if the liner fills with fluid. An anti-reflux system is also disclosed as well as a new tandem tube and a new connector.

Abstract: A clear, flexible, thermoplastic material capable of being processed into hollow shapes by conventional thermoplastic processing methods and subsequently autoclaved, comprises four components: from about 45 to 70% by weight of a polyolefin polypropylene, including its copolymers, admixed with from; about 5 to 25% by weight of an ethylene loweralkyl acrylate polymer from; about 10 to 40% by weight of a thermoplastic ethylene butylene block copolymer elastomer having terminal polystyrene blocks; and from 0 to 15% of a high-boiling point petroleum distillation byproduct as represented by mineral oil. The above material is particularly desirable for manufacturing medical liquid containers such as autoclavable, flexible, collapsible, intravenous solution containers.
