Abstract
A dialysis bag is provided, including a first layer of film and a second layer of film each having a closed end and an opposite outlet end, the layers sealed together about corresponding peripheral edges to define a bag chamber. An outlet assembly is sealingly disposed at the corresponding outlet ends and has a tubular administrative outlet with an inlet and is in fluid communication with the bag chamber. A dimple is formed in at least one of the layers adjacent to the inlet for preventing occlusion as a fluid level decreases in the bag.
