Abstract: Flexible container, for containment and delivery of medical fluids, having a 5.degree. to 45.degree. angel form the center of its bottom towards its side, and at least one embossed interior wall to facilitate fluid delivery to an access port.

Abstract: Universal, flexible container with multiple access ports having first and second polymeric sheets, portions of which are embossed, superimposed on each other and sealed together at their periphery defining an interior reservoir with a bottom having a first and second angle of from 5.degree. to 45.degree. each from the center of the bottom and relative to a horizontal plane crossing the center of the bottom portion; and a combination access member of inverted Y shape configuration having:an IV access port with IV line and control means;a needle access port; anda spike access port.

Abstract: This invention relates to a holder for use in combination with a pre-filled cartridge-needle unit, the holder comprising a hollow body sized for housing the cartridge-needle unit therein, and provision for allowing the body to move axially relative to the cartridge-needle unit. In one preferred embodiment, the distal end of the body is elliptical in cross section and the proximal end of the body is circular in cross section. In another preferred embodiment, the body comprises a pair of cam slots at the distal end and a pair or retaining slots at the proximal end, the slots being sized to accept a circumferential ring on the cartridge-needle unit and positioned to hold the cartridge-needle units in use and safe positions. The holder is easier to use and manufacture and reduces the susceptibility of health care workers to accidental needle strikes.

Abstract: A coupling system for transferring fluids from a medicament-containing cartridge to an injection site comprises a fluid flow channel, a blunt cannula defining the distal end of the fluid flow channel, a needle cannula defining the proximal end of the fluid flow channel, and means for fixedly connecting the needle cannula to the blunt cannula.
