The invention relates to an apparatus for administering a medical fluid comprises a film-sheet pouch of a heat-sealed polymeric material, which includes a first chamber containing medical fluid and a second chamber for receiving used medical fluid, and comprises a cross-over conveying device detachably enclosed within a third chamber of the film-sheet pouch that includes a fluid conduit line, having a first end heat-sealed into the bonded seam defining the first chamber and a second end including a connector coupled to a peritoneal catheter. The apparatus of the present invention also includes at least one shut-off element to control the flow of fluid out of the first chamber into the conduit line.

Arrangement for administering a medical fluid

Apparatus for controlling a fluid flow includes a housing having a first fitting for connection of a tube and at least one further fitting for detachable securement of a coupling piece of a peritoneal catheter. Accommodated in the housing is a rotary valve which is indexable in predetermined positions to selectively establish a fluid communication between the fittings. Associated with one of the fittings is at least one closure member which is acted upon by the rotary valve for displacement in a radial direction to open and close a passage to the peritoneal catheter.

Apparatus for controlling a fluid flow

A protective cap assembly for protecting and sealing a tubing used in the field of peritoneal dialysis, includes a plug that is closely fitted in one end of a tubing, and a protective cap which has first connection means for allowing a permanent attachment of the protective cap to the plug, and second connection means for allowing a detachable securement of the protective cap to the tubing.
