Abstract: A container for collecting, transporting, storing, delivering and dispensing fluid. The container has a hollow tube with an outer circumference diameter and is configured to receive a plunger. A collection adaptor and a dispensing adaptor provide interchangeable coupling of a variable volume container such as a syringe with a collection device such as a breast pump and a dispensing device such as a nipple. The container also has a circumferential seal assembly secured at one end of the hollow tube. The seal assembly outer diameter is substantially similar to the hollow tube outer diameter.

Abstract: A connector for medical fluid vessels includes a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug defining a lumen and mating with a cooperating connector, a mechanical fastener such as a screw thread for mating with the cooperating connector, and an outer housing positioned around the plug to form an annular space. A cap can be provided with a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug for mating with the lumen of the connector. In example embodiments, the male plug is tapered and can comprise one or more projections for sealingly engaging with the lumen of the connector. According to some example embodiments, the cap can be tethered to the connector.

Abstract: A syringe-to-syringe coupling for facilitating the transfer of fluids or medications from a first syringe to a second syringe. In example embodiments, the coupling includes a centrally-positioned hub extending from a first end to a second end, and a fluid delivery conduit provided within the hub and extending between the first and second ends. In example forms, each end of the hub includes a male tip.

Abstract: A transfer lid for a fluid container, having an attachment collar for removably attaching the transfer lid to the fluid container, and an inner collar arranged generally concentrically with and spaced inwardly from the attachment collar, the inner collar having a vent opening such as a vent slot extending therethrough.

Abstract: A metered enteral feeding system for delivering fluids, the metered enteral feeding system including a vented container with contained volume for containing the fluids. The metered enteral feeding system includes a discharge port for discharging the fluid from the contained volume and at least one vent for allowing airflow into the contained volume. The metered enteral feeding system also includes a flow control valve in fluid communication with the discharge port of the vented container. The fluid control valve is adjustable to provide an increased or decreased flowrate therethrough.

Abstract: A connector for medical fluid vessels includes a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug defining a lumen and mating with a cooperating connector, a mechanical fastener such as a screw thread for mating with the cooperating connector, and an outer housing positioned around the plug to form an annular space. Optionally, a cap can be provided with a fluid-seal fitting such as a male plug for mating with the lumen of the connector. The connector includes one or more vent openings for drainage and air-drying of any residual fluid in the annular space when capped, as well as for breaking a vacuum to prevent fluid backflow and thus ensure more accurate dosing. In some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the outer housing. And in some embodiments, the vent openings are provided in the cap.

Abstract: Enteral connectors having coupling features for providing removable or permanent coupling engagement with a syringe connector. In some example embodiments, the syringe connector includes an ENFit compatible female connector. In other example embodiments, the syringe connector includes a threaded tip.

Abstract: A self-righting tip cap includes a cap body having a generally oblate spheroid external shell geometry defining a first end and a second end. The first end has a base surface, and at least one clip extends from the body towards the second end. A coupling element accessible from the second end provides removable attachment of the tip cap to a cooperating coupling of a syringe or other female ENFit connectors. The geometry of the tip cap causes it to tend toward uprighting itself when dropped onto a flat surface, such that the base surface is in contact with the flat surface and the coupling element is accessible in an upward facing orientation. According to example forms, at least one rib of a female coupling can become interengaged with at least a portion of the clips such that the self-righting tip cap can be pulled and/or rotationally moved relative to the female coupling to be removed therefrom.

Abstract: An improved oral administration coupler for delivery of fluids such as medications and nutritional fluids. Example oral administration couplers have a first end with an applicator for oral delivery to an infant, and a second end with a coupling compatible with an enteral fluid delivery syringe. A fluid delivery conduit extends in fluid communication from the first end to the second end, to deliver fluid from the syringe to the infant. In some example embodiments, the coupler is configured for back-of-mouth delivery, and can comprise a generally elongate and at least partially flexible tube or straw.
