Fluid connector systems that can include first and second valve assemblies that are couplable together to form a fluid pathway through the fluid connector system when the first and second valve assemblies are coupled together, and can resist fluid flow through each of the first and second valve assemblies when the first and second valve assemblies are separated from each other, where the first and second valve assemblies can include a compressible element or post positioned within a channel and configured resist fluid flow through the respective first or second valve assembly in a first position and to reduce the resistance to fluid flow through the first or second valve assembly in a second position, and the first and second valve assemblies including a sleeve and one or more arm configured to engage each other to form a snap fitting feature that can resist separation therebetween.

Fluid connector system

A flow restriction device may include a housing with first and second end portions forming respective first and second openings, and a cavity configured to receive an insert body defining a fluid passage that extends from a first opening of the housing at the first end portion to a second opening of the housing at the second end portion, where the fluid passage extends in more than one direction along a path between the first and second end portions of the housing to induce a resistance to a fluid flow moving through the device, thereby reducing a flow rate and pressure of the fluid, and where the fluid is blood, reduce the hemolysis index of the blood.

Hemolysis-reduction accessories for direct blood draw

Fluid connector assemblies that seal off fluid paths in the respective connectors are disclosed. When connectors of a fluid connector assembly are connected to each other, respective compressible members in the connectors are displaced, allowing downstream fluid passage through the fluid connector assembly. The fluid connector assemblies may further include a coupling mechanism for providing a connection between the connectors and maintain a connection that provides a threshold retention force. When an external force greater than the threshold force is applied to the fluid connector assembly, the connectors may be decoupled while the coupling mechanism may remain intact.

Fluid connector assembly

Fluid connector assemblies that seal off fluid paths in the respective connectors are disclosed. When connectors of a fluid connector assembly are connected to each other, respective compressible members in the connectors are displaced, allowing downstream fluid passage through the fluid connector assembly. The connectors maintain a connection by a snap mechanism that provides a threshold retention force. When an external force greater than the threshold force is applied to the fluid connector assembly, the snap mechanism may no longer maintain the connectors together, causing the connectors to decouple from each other. However, each of the compressible members can return to their respective original positions and shapes to seal off respective fluid paths in the connectors, thus preventing further downstream and upstream flow through the fluid connector assembly and limiting or preventing fluid loss.

Fluid connector assembly that seals flow paths when the connectors are disconnected

Fluid connector systems including first and second connector portions couplable together to form a fluid pathway therethrough and can resist separation or permit separation as desired. A connector portion can include a connector housing and a cover portion. The connector housing includes a connector body and an engagement portion. The connector body defines a tubing opening and a mating opening. The connector body defines a flow path between the tubing opening and the mating opening. The engagement portion at least partially surrounds the connector body. The engagement portion defines an engagement lip extending radially toward the connector body and is configured to releasably engage the connector housing. The flow path includes at least one portion that is normal to the engagement portion. Fluid flow through the flow path exerts a normal force on the connector housing and prevent release of the connector housing with the mating connector portion.

Methods for selecting a filter for a filtration process are described. Input data is received, and based on the input data, one or more filter characteristics for each of a plurality of filter candidates for a filtration process are identified. Process parameters of the filtration process are identified. A computer-implemented simulation process of the filtration process for each of the plurality of filter candidates is performed, based on the identified process parameters and identified filter characteristics. One or more output characteristics of the filtration process are determined based on the simulation. A filter candidate of the plurality of filter candidates is selected based on the one or more output characteristics.
