Abstract: A package is described having two blanks of a sheet material joined along edges to form one or more enclosed compartments to retain a urinary catheter. The joined edges provide at least one peeling zone permitting separation of two foil walls. A gripping means is provided to allow a firm grip relative to the peeling zone.

Abstract: A body fluids drainage system includes a urinary catheter, a drainage collection bag, and a connection member connected between the urinary catheter and the drainage collection bag. The connection member houses a valve element formed from a sheet of material and projecting a coherent plane. The valve element defines a longitudinal direction extending between a connecting portion and a flap portion and a recess formed on a periphery of the valve element between the connecting portion and the flap portion.

Abstract: The device (1) for providing anti-reflux has a valve element (9) formed from a sheet-shaped material blank. The valve element includes a connecting portion and a flap portion. Retaining means (10a,10b) for retaining the valve element are integral with the device. The connecting portion includes engagement means formed integrally with the valve element for engagement with the retaining means, the valve element projecting a coherent plane.

Abstract: The invention is an easy to open package, in particular a package of the kind comprising two blanks of a sheet material (101) joined along the edges, thereby constituting one or more enclosed compartments (102) e.g. for a medical utensil, such as a urinary catheter. The edge joint comprises at least one peeling zone (18) permitting separation of the two foil walls and at least one foil sheet comprises or defines gripping means to enable a firm grip, such as a tear-open flap (12), a gripping string (499) or a flap with a finger-size hole (11). The package may further comprise means for one-hand opening, e.g. an adhesive element (2299) for bonding the package to exterior objects.

Abstract: The invention relates to a medical device connector for transmission of fluids in fluidic systems, the connector comprising a tubular engagement section having a stabilisation part, and a securing part comprising a soft flexible first material, which when in use sealingly secures engagement with an insert, wherein the combination of the stabilisation part and the securing part provides that said engagement section is more stabile in a longitudinal direction than in a radial direction and that said engagement section is more flexible in the radial direction than in the longitudinal direction. The medical device connector may e.g. be part of a medical bag for fluids, e.g. a urine bag. The medical device connector may further be part of a medical collection system for fluids.
