A blood collection system has a container for holding blood and a filter communicating with the container, mutually arranged for handling as a unit. The filter () contains a fibrous filter medium () housed within two flexible sheets () of plastic. A first seal () joins the sheets () directly to the filter medium () inboard of the peripheral edge () of the filter medium (), and a second seal () joins the sheets () outboard of the peripheral edge () of the filter medium (). A region () of the filter medium () extends between the first and second seals () to cushion contact with the filter housing during handling.

International Classification:
A61M 5/00
US Classification:
604263
Abstract:
Needle protector assemblies including needle assemblies and needle protectors for housing used blood collection needles are disclosed. The needle protectors are single-piece protectors that include an open distal end for receiving a needle hub (with needle mounted thereon). A retaining member locks the hub when the needle hub is substantially retracted. A stop engages the hub in the fully retracted position such that the needle post is completely contained within the interior chamber of the needle protector. A viewing slot in one of the walls of the needle protector is provided.

A method for manufacturing a blood filter assembly is provided that includes the steps of providing a first housing sheet and a second housing sheet. The method includes locating and sealing at least one port onto each of the first and second housing sheets. The method includes locating the filtration medium between the first housing sheet and the second housing sheet. The method includes applying heat and pressure to form at least one seal that commingles the first and second housing sheets along with the filtration medium, wherein the periphery of the seal commingles only the first and second housing sheets.

Abstract:
Containers and components thereof for use in the medical industry and methods to manufacture the same are described. An example tab for use with a medical container includes opposing sheets sealed to define an open ended chamber into which a port is to be at least partially positioned. The port is to enable access to the medical container. The tab includes a tear seal defined by each of the opposing sheets and a first guide positioned on a first side of each of the tear seals. The tab includes a second guide positioned on a second side of each of the tear seals, wherein the first and second guides are to enable a tear to propagate substantially between the guides and adjacent the tear seals.
