Systems and methods for renal insufficiency treatment that include identifying and associating a solution container with a container support in the systems and methods are described herein. The systems and methods may associate an identified solution with an identified container support and verify compatibility of that combination with a selected treatment to reduce the likelihood for errors during setup and use of the systems and methods.

Solution verification prior to therapy in renal insufficiency treatment

In one embodiment, a sample probe has a cap and a base, wherein the cap includes a grip portion and a projection portion. The projection portion fits within a hollow portion of a filter such that the filter is disposed on the outside of the projection portion and the filter and the cap form a cap assemblage. The base comprises a base recess that receives a portion of the cap assemblage including the filter. The cap and base include corresponding media transfer regions adjacent and connected to the filter that reduces flow resistance and chances of blockage and/or contamination during dissolution-testing sampling using the sample probe.

In one embodiment, a contiguous, elastic cover, for a dissolution-testing vessel, has a slit from a central opening to its outer edge. The cover may be placed around a stirring shaft by deforming the elastic cover to temporarily enlarge the slit. After returning to its original shape, the cover is placed over the vessel with the shaft free to rotate unimpeded within the central opening. The cover has a first raised annular disk on one side and a second raised annular disk on the other side, where the disks have different outer diameters to enable the cover to be used with differently sized vessels. The cover has a first opening having a first diameter and a second opening having a different, second diameter such that a conventional probe fits either at one depth within the first opening or at a different, second depth within the second opening.

A flexible walled cannula apparatus and method of use comprising a uniquely deformable cannula tube and head in combination with a uniquely shaped obturator which allows the use of heretofore unusable larger gauge surgical instruments while providing a self sealing incision. The apparatus and method of use provides a preassembled obturator and cannula assembly with which the surgeon forms an incision or channel, inserts the cannula tube, and through the cannula inserts surgical instruments to perform a surgical operation. The apparatus and method of use is especially suited for ophthalmic surgical operations. Alternative embodiments for use with even larger diameter instruments utilize a uniquely designed valve having leaflets which prevent bodily or other fluid leakage from the cannula when an instrument is not inserted.
