  • Publication number: 20240033439
    Abstract: A syringe including a syringe body extending from a proximal end to a distal end, and a stabilizing element provided on the distal end of the syringe body, a portion of the stabilizing element extending substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the syringe body. A multi-use disposable set (MUDS) includes a plurality of syringes, each syringe having a syringe body, a proximal end, a distal end spaced apart from the proximal end along a longitudinal axis of the syringe body, a stabilizing element provided on the distal end, a portion of the stabilizing element extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the syringe body, and a manifold in fluid communication with the distal end of each of the plurality of syringes.

  • Publication number: 20200155823
    Abstract: A medical connector for providing a sterile connection between a multi-use portion and a single-use portion of a fluid delivery system is provided. The medical connector includes a fluid inlet port configured for removable engagement with a connection port of a multi-use disposable set (MUDS) to establish a fluid connection therewith and a waste outlet port configured for removable engagement with a waste inlet port of the MUDS to establish a fluid connection therewith. A patient fluid line is connected, at a first end, to the fluid inlet port and connected, at a second end, to the waste outlet port. Fluid flow through the patient fluid line is unidirectional from the first end to the second end. The patient fluid line is configured for being disconnected from the waste outlet port for delivering fluid to a patient. A multi-fluid delivery system having the medical connector and MUDS is also provided.

  • Patent number: 10507319
    Abstract: A multi-use disposable set (MUDS) has at least one syringe having a proximal end and a distal end spaced apart from the proximal end along a longitudinal axis. The MUDS further has a plunger reciprocally movable within a syringe interior between the proximal end and the distal end. A manifold is in fluid communication with the distal end of the at least one syringe. At least one valve is in fluid communication with the syringe interior. The at least one valve is operable between a filling position for filling the syringe interior with fluid and a delivery position for delivering the fluid from the syringe interior. At least one connection port is in fluid communication with the manifold and the syringe interior when the at least one valve is in the delivery position. A multi-fluid delivery system having the medical convector and MUDS is also provided. Various features of the MUDS system are also described.
