The present invention relates to a container arrangement having a first container wherein the first container is either a container in which a concentrate is located that is configured to form a ready-to-use dialysis solution or a component thereof on a dilution with a solvent, preferably with pure water (water for injection), or an empty container, wherein the container arrangement has a second container in which the first container is received, with the first container having a greater elasticity than the second container and with the first container being configured to expand up to the second container.

Container arrangement, method of filling a container arrangement, and use of a solution as a dialysis solution

The present invention relates to an apparatus for providing a dialysis solution and preferably a peritoneal dialysis solution comprising a reception container that can accommodate a solution volume that is intended for at least two treatments, wherein the apparatus has a plurality of extraction ports for extracting the dialysis solution from the reception container.

Apparatus containing dialysis solution or dialysis solution concentrate

The invention relates to a multi-chamber bagfor medical purposes which is formed by films, in particular flexible films, that are arranged against one another, are made of an at least partially transparent material and are interconnected in a liquid-tight manner using at least one non-separable seam, the bag being divided into at least two chambersA,B by at least one separable seam, by means of which the films arranged against one another are interconnected in a liquid-tight manner. The multi-chamber bag according to the invention is characterised by at least one visually perceptible structurethat signals the state of the at least one separable seamand can be easily optically detected. Using this visible structure, the user can immediately identify whether the seamis open or closed. The structure is composed of structural elementswhich the filmsarranged against one another comprise in the region of the separable seamand are in a predetermined spatial arrangement relative to one another such that the structural elements in the region of the separable seam complement one another to form the structure signalling the state of the separable seam when the separable seam is closed, such that the films in the region of the separable seam lie against one another in a predetermined orientation, and do not complement one another to form the structure signalling the state of the separable seam when the separable seam is open, such that the films in the region of the separable seam do not lie against one another in a predetermined orientation, meaning that the predetermined spatial arrangement of the structural elements relative to one another in the region of the separable seam no longer exists.

Multi-chamber bag for medical purposes and method for recognition of the state of a separable seam of a multi-chamber bag for medical purposes

The present invention relates to an apparatus for transporting a dialysis solution, wherein the apparatus has a flexible inner bag for receiving the dialysis solution that is arranged in a rigid outer packaging that is preferably parallelepiped-shaped.

Apparatus containing a dialysis solution

The present invention relates to an apparatus and to a method for filling a solution bag for dialysis with a liquid, wherein the apparatus comprises a needle for introduction into a filling line or filling opening of the bag, wherein the needle is a double wall needle having a preferably thermally conductive outer wall and having an inner wall, with a thermal insulation being present between the outer wall and the inner wall; and with a heating element being provided that is configured to heat the outer side of the outer wall to a temperature above the temperature of the inner side of the inner wall.

Apparatus and method for filling solution bags for dialysis

The present invention relates to a magazine having a plurality of solution bags for dialysis received therein, wherein the plurality of solution bags are identical; wherein the plurality of solution bags are fixed in a stationary manner in an identical orientation at different, but identically designed holding positions of the magazine; and wherein the holding positions are configured such that the solution bags can be removed from the magazine. The invention furthermore relates to a method of filling the solution bags.

Magazine having solution bags for dialysis and method for filling same

The invention relates to a dialysis solution having at least one osmotic agent, with the osmotic agent being a polysaccharide modified by 2-sulfoethyl groups.

Dialysis solution having at least one osmotic agent

The present invention relates to a dialysis solution containing bicarbonate, calcium and phosphate, wherein the dialysis solution contains phosphate having a concentration in the range from up to 0.4 mmol/l, preferably in the range from up to 0.375 mmol/l, or in the range from up to 0.25 mmol/l, and particularly preferably in the range from up to 0.2 mmol/l.

Dialysis solution

Certain aspects of the invention relate to a connector including at least one first connector part and at least one second connector part. The connector parts can be connected to one another in a fluid-tight manner and can be locked to one another via at least one closure element. One of the connector parts has at least one sealing element (e.g., a septum or a sealing disk) that blocks a throughflow in the closed state and which can be opened, and the other one of the connector parts has at least one opening element for opening the sealing element. One of the connector parts has at least one projection and the other one of the connector parts has at least one receiver, and the opening element and the sealing element are arranged with respect to one another such that the opening element only opens the sealing element when the projection has been introduced into the receiver.

Connector with seal element and adapted connector parts

This document relates to bi-carbonate-buffered dialysis solutions with physiological phosphate content and increased stability. The solutions include an organic ester of phosphoric acid, calcium ions and/or magnesium ions, and optionally additional electrolytes, buffers and glucose in physiologically effective concentrations.

Dialysis solutions comprising organic esters of phosphoric acid

The present invention relates to a dialysis solution having at least one osmotic agent, wherein the osmotic agent is starch propylphosphonate.
