Abstract: A connection device for medical use, suitable to connect together biological and/or artificial liquid conveying structures, e.g. a blood vessel and a syringe, where one of the structures is provided with a first end and a lumen. The device is provided with a tubular portion with an insertion end which end is intended to be inserted in said lumen, and a sleeve, which is slideable along the tubular portion, and arranged to keep the vessel at the connection device.

Abstract: A drainage device useable for treating patients with a pulmonary air leak, the device comprising suction mode control means, where a pressure sensor is connected to the suction mode control means for supplying a pressure signal representative of the pressure in a collection chamber, and an air flow sensor is connected to the suction mode control means to supply a flow signal representative of the flow of air evacuated from the collection chamber, and in that the suction mode control means is arranged to switch between a first suction mode and a second suction mode based on an algorithm involving the flow signal and the pressure signal.

Abstract: A vascular access device (100) suitable for evacuating air from a blood vessel having a vessel wall comprising a cannula (105) for insertion into the blood vessel; wherein an anchoring organ (101) having a first end (102) and a second end (112), the first end (102) of the anchoring organ being fixed to a first end (103) of the cannula (105), and the anchoring organ (101) being adapted to alter its shape between an out-spread shape and a streamlined shape upon a movement being applied to it;-a linkage (119, 120, 131, 132, 141, 142) comprising:-a first sleeve portion (119) being slideable along the cannula (105);-a second sleeve portion (120) being fixedly attached to the cannula (105);-a first outer arm (131) and a second outer arm (132), symetrically arranged relatively to the cannula (105), and opposite each other, the first outer arm (131) and the second outer arm (132) being mechanically connected to the first sleeve portion (119) and being pressable by a persons fingers, wherein the length of the arms is
