- This closure member comprises an upper part 16a and a nozzle 17 which extends this upper part.
- the end piece 17 includes, in the embodiment shown, four lateral recesses 18 which intervene during the lyophilization phase.
- the upper part 16a comprises a radial duct 21 which communicates with the outside via a substantially circular opening formed in the central zone of this upper part 16a, between two beads 16b and 16c respectively.
- FIG. 16 represents the closure member 42 which is used when the bottle 10 is intended to contain a powdery or liquid substance and not a lyophilisate.
- This shutter member is shown in section in FIG. 7. It comprises an upper part 42a which is identical in all points to the upper part 16a of the shutter member 16. In particular it is provided with a radial channel 43 which opens into a central zone delimited by two beads 42b and 42c respectively.
- a lower tip 42d of slightly frustoconical shape, extends the upper part of the shutter member. Note that this tip has no side opening.
- FIG. 17 illustrates a particular use of the bottle 10 connected via a flexible pipe 90 to a peristaltic pump 91.
- the capsule 92 is equipped with a connection end piece 93 which is coupled to a member for connection 94 to perform a Luer-Lock type coupling.
- the capsule 100 is provided with a nozzle 101 comprising no connection member to another device but which is intended to be put in the mouth by the patient.
- the bottle 10 is designed to contain a drug substance to be absorbed orally.
- FIG. 19 illustrates another use of the vial 10, which in this case is coupled to a pre-filled syringe 110.
- the capsule 111 of the closure device comprises an end piece 112 which is identical to the end piece 93 shown in FIG. 17.
- the pre-filled syringe 110 is coupled to the tip 112 by a connecting member 113 fixed to said tip by locking means of the Luer-Lock type.
- the connection member 113 includes an internal cavity 114 whose diameter is somewhat greater than the diameter of a closure plug 115 which closes the end of the syringe 110.
- FIG. 20 represents a coupling of the vial 10 with a traditional syringe 120 which can be empty or pre-filled.
- the coupling of these two components is of the Luer type.
- the capsule 121 of the closure device comprises a conical female tip 122 intended to receive a frustoconical tip 123 which is in fact the needle-holder tip of the syringe 120.
- the connection is made by means other than the needle intended to inject a substance into the patient, so that the needle is not contaminated during the transfer phase of the substances to be injected.
- FIG. 21 illustrates another embodiment of the bottle as well as another mode of use of this bottle.
- the bottle 10 is coupled to a transfusion bag 130 which comprises a connection tube 131 closed by a cap 132 made of a flexible elastomeric substance.
- the bottle is equipped with a transfer device which includes a needle 133 mounted on a needle holder 134 which fits on a nozzle 135 integral with the capsule 136. All these elements are protected by a tubular member 137, substantially cylindrical, integral with the capsule 136.
- the liquid substance contained inside the transfusion bag 130 can be transferred inside the said bottle then the mixture obtained can be transferred from the bottle to the bag 130.
- FIG. 22 illustrates another form of use of the bottle 10 which is, in this case, coupled to a flexible bottle 140 by means of a device of the Luer-Lock type 141.
- FIG. 23 illustrates a variant of the embodiment represented by FIG. 22.
- the flexible bottle 140 is replaced by a three-way valve 150.
- FIG. 24 represents the bottle 10 corresponding to the use illustrated by FIG. 21 in its storage position.
- the capsule 136 is surrounded by a protective cap 138 and it is linked to the bottle by a tamper-evident label 139.
- FIG. 25 represents the bottle 10 illustrated in particular by FIG. 22 and FIG. 23 in its position of storage.
- the capsule 150 is completely covered by a protective cap 151 linked to the bottle by a tamper-evident label 152.
- the closure member 153 engaged in the neck of the bottle 10 is made in two parts, a part 154, or head, which is in contact with the substance contained in the bottle and an annular seal 155 which will not be in contact with the drug substance or solution obtained after mixing with another substance, only for a short period of time. Therefore, the two parts can be made of different materials, the head is of course made of a material compatible with the substance contained in the bottle. This principle of realization can be applied to all the bottles.
- FIG. 26 illustrates another embodiment particularly suitable for the use of medicaments containing bicarbonate and or citric acid or other chemical substances which, when dissolved, generate a significant release of carbon dioxide.
- the pressure inside the entire system increases significantly. Since carbon dioxide dissolves relatively quickly in a solution, it would be possible to wait a few minutes before proceeding to infusion, nevertheless it is particularly advantageous to be able to remove this gas by a simple and effective means.
- This means comprises at least one lateral opening made in the needle 161.
- this needle has two openings 162 which are closed when it is sufficiently pressed inside the 'sealing plug 163 which closes the conduit 164 of the infusion bag 160 and which are released as shown in the figure, when it is somewhat set back from this plug.
- Figures 27 and 28 illustrate another embodiment of a vial equipped with a transfer device to ensure rapid evacuation of the carbon dioxide released during the reconstitution of a drug solution from 'a solvent and a powder initially placed in the bottle.
- Figure 27 shows an intermediate position between the storage position and the activated position of the bottle and Figure 28 shows the activated position of this bottle.
- a protective cap completely covering the capsule was removed.
- the capsule provides an opening which makes it possible to put the interior of the system in communication with the exterior.
- the capsule 170 has an opening 171 which provides communication re in the cavity 172 formed inside the body 'shutter 173 and the outside.
- a complementary element 174 which is engaged on the needle-holder endpiece 175 temporarily obtains the closure of this opening 171.
- Figure 28 shows the device in working condition.
- the operator presses as shown by the arrows M on the branches of the element 174 it releases the opening 171 and allows the evacuation of the gas under pressure inside the pocket and the bottle.
- This achievement allows to evacuate the overpressure due to carbon dioxide which is released during the preparation of an antibiotic solution.
- a simple push exerted for example by means of the thumb and the index on the elastic branches of the element 174 achieves the desired goal.
- FIG. 29 illustrates a variant of the device represented by FIG. 28.
- the modification consists in inserting a hydrophobic filter 180 inside the cavity 172, this filter being perforated in its center so as to allow a direct passage of the liquids between the bottle and pocket 181, but being arranged to cover the opening 171 which serves as a vent.
- the role of the filter is to avoid the risk of release of aerosols of antibiotics or antimitotics which are very harmful to the nursing staff.
- FIG. 30 represents an enlarged view of the zone which carries the filter 180.
- the vent 171 is constituted by an axial perforation formed in the wall of the capsule 170.
- the filter 180 is constituted by an annular part which is supported on two beads annular 182 formed on the wall of the capsule which comprises the opening 171. This opening which is unique in the embodiment shown could be replaced by several opening formed in the annular zone delimited by the two beads 182.
- the advantage of the presence of the hydrophobic filter is that it makes it possible at all times to ensure the release of the overpressure without risking causing aerosols which, as mentioned above, are particularly harmful to the nursing staff.
