Abstract: An external end device has a casing (4), a fitting (15) housed in the casing (4) and having at least one distal part (16) which engages a catheter (3), and two proximal tracts (17, 17), in which a pair of curved pipes (18, 18) are inserted with a distal end (180) thereof. The curved pipes (18, 18) have a proximal end (181), in which a pair of nozzles (190, 190) are inserted. Inside each nozzle (190) there is a cap (20) suitable for hermetically sealing the nozzle (190). A piercing and connecting conduit (24) is adapted to reversibly pierce the cap (20) and to connect the pair of nozzles (190, 190) to the flow lines of the treatment equipment. Also disclosed is a method of connecting the external terminal device to flow lines of a machine.

Abstract: An external end device has a casing, including a base, in which a distal opening is formed which receives a funnel-shaped septum having a tube trunk. Inside the tube trunk, the catheter is connected to the distal section of the fitting. A tubular coating has a proximal end adapted to be grafted onto the tube trunk and a distal end coaxially adhering to the catheter. A pair of bands of tissue-ingrowth material is fixed on the tubular coating, and an anchor ring, equipped with anchoring means, is sandwiched between the bands.

Abstract: An external end device has a casing (4), including a base (5), in which a distal opening (12) is formed which receives a funnel-shaped septum (14) having a tube trunk (140). Inside the tube trunk (140) the catheter (3) is connected to the distal section (16) of the fitting (15). A tubular coating (2) has a proximal end adapted to be grafted onto the tube trunk (140) and a distal end coaxially adhering to the catheter (3). A pair of bands (90, 91) of tissue-ingrowth material is fixed on the tubular coating (2), and an anchor ring (92), equipped with anchoring means, is sandwiched between the bands (90, 91).
