The invention relates to a blocking and/or restricting valve having a valve housing which has a fluid system having a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet and a fluid chamber arranged therebetween, wherein the fluid chamber comprises a blocking geometry and is bounded by a barrier membrane with respect to the blocking geometry, wherein the barrier membrane is connected to a tappet on its side remote from the fluid chamber () such that it can be pressed toward the blocking geometry by a movement of the tappet and can be lifted thereby, and wherein the tappet is arranged in a freely floating manner in a hollow space of the valve housing.

Blocking and/or restricting valve and blood treatment device comprising such a valve

A heating device for one or more components of an extracorporeal circuit of a blood treatment device, in particular a dialyzer, an adsorber, or a filter, includes at least one reception region for the component, and at least one heating element for heating the component located in the receiver. The heating device has a plurality of layers, with at least one layer being a flexible layer or an elastically deformable layer.

Dialysis apparatus

Blood treatment device

A medical treatment apparatus, and in particular an extra-corporeal blood treatment apparatus, has a socket unit for the connection of a plug unit belonging to a device for supplying a medical fluid for the medical treatment apparatus. A filling apparatus for filling a device for supplying a medical fluid has a socket unit for the connection of a plug unit of the device for supplying a medical fluid. The device has a plug unit having means for indicating two states of operation, while the socket unit of the treatment apparatus has means for destroying the means for indicating two states of operation. When the plug unit is connected to the socket unit, the means for indicating two states of operation are destroyed, to rule out the possibility of the device being re-used. Re-use of the device is ruled out by the fact that the device cannot be re-filled with fluid.

Medical treatment apparatus, device for supplying medical fluids, and apparatus for filling a device for supplying medical fluids

A medical apparatus includes a socket unit for connecting a plug unit of a device for supplying medical fluids, in which the medical apparatus is in particular an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, for example an extracorporeal dialysis apparatus or an apparatus for peritoneal dialysis, or an apparatus for filling the device for supplying medical fluids. The socket unit comprises connection pieces for the connection of connectors of a plug unit, so that a flow connection can be produced for supplying or discharging a fluid. The connection pieces are surrounded by connection parts thereby forming rinsing chambers, in which the rinsing chambers are closed by closure pieces, said closure pieces being part of a closure body which is disposed rotatably on the socket unit.

Medical apparatus with a socket unit for the connection of a device for supplying medical fluids

A medical apparatus includes a socket unit for connection to a plug unit belonging to a device for supplying medical fluids for a blood treatment apparatus, the medical apparatus being in particular an extra-corporeal blood treatment apparatus such for example as an extra-corporeal dialysis apparatus or an apparatus for peritoneal dialysis, or an apparatus for filling the device for supplying medical fluids. A device for supplying medical fluids for a blood treatment apparatus, which has a plug unit for connection to a socket unit of a medical apparatus, is also described. The socket unit and the plug unit are characterised in that a safe and secure fluid-tight connection can easily be made with the two units between the device for supplying medical fluids and, on the one hand, the blood treatment apparatus or, on the other hand, the apparatus for filling the device for supplying medical fluids.

Medical apparatus having a socket unit for connection of a device for supplying medical fluids, and device for supplying medical fluids having a plug unit for connection to a medical apparatus

A blood treatment device, in particular a dialyzer, configured to carry out a blood treatment, in particular a dialysis treatment, or a device configured for the filling of a mobile apparatus with and/or for the emptying of a mobile apparatus of a treatment fluid, in particular a dialysis fluid is provided. The device has at least one mount which is made such that a mobile apparatus can be received in the mount. The device has a guide element and/or a fixing element which are designed such that the mobile apparatus can be introduced into the mount and/or fixed in the mount with the aid of the guide element and/or of the fixing element.
