The invention relates to a connection element () for a blood treatment device, in particular for a dialysis machine. The connection element () has here an inlet line (), for letting in a fluid into the connection element (), an outlet line (), for letting a fluid out of the connection element (), at least a first discharge line (), for discharging a fluid from the connection element (), wherein the first discharge line () is formed in a subsection () around the inlet line (), and wherein the inlet line () and the first discharge line () are open to a first end section () of the connection element (), and the first end section () is fluidically connected with the subsection ().

Connection element and connection system for a 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.
