Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for applying a lock solution in a catheter or other system for access to an organism, a vascular system, tissue structures or hollow organs, said applicator device comprising a syringe having an expulsion arrangement for expelling the lock solution from the device, said expulsion arrangement including a plunger arranged in a housing, further comprising a sterile connector for connecting the syringe to the catheter or other system for access, the connector being arranged to engage a tip of the expulsion arrangement tightly when the expulsion arrangement of the syringe is inserted in the connector.
- the invention also relates to a method for applying a lock solution in a catheter or access system.
- a lock solution is applied in the catheter when it has been disconnected from e.g. a dialysis machine or due to therapeutic interventions such as application of contrast media or instillation of fluids or medication.
- the lock solution provides a kind of liquid barrier for growth of bacteria and other microorganisms. It may contain e.g. heparin, citrate or taurolidine .
- pre-filled syringes with lock solution may be used.
- Pre-filled syringes are known containing saline solution for rinsing or e.g. a heparin solution for use as lock solution.
- Such syringes are marketed e.g. by BD under the name BD PosiFlushTM.
- These syringes are provided with a so-called luer lock for connecting the syringe to the catheter.
- the solutions in the pre-filled syringe are sterile a problem with maintaining sterility remains, since microorganisms may be introduced by touch or air contamination at the opening of the catheter when connecting and disconnecting the syringe.
- a specific object of the invention is to provide a pre-filled applicator device for applying lock solution in a catheter or access system, which ensures enhanced operative simplicity during aseptic handling and which reduces the risk of microbial, particle or air contamination .
- Another object of the invention is to provide a pre- filled applicator which makes possible a simple procedure for rinsing and locking a catheter or access system.
- Yet another object is to provide a method of applying a lock solution which ensures a significant improvement of the aseptic connection procedure with maintained sterility in the catheter or access system.
- An object of the invention is also to provide method that simplifies the procedure of rinsing the catheter or access system prior to application of the lock solution.
- the device of the invention has a connector which is arranged to prevent the tip of the expulsion arrangement from entering the catheter lumen, the tip being frangible. With such a device, the tip of the expulsion arrangement may be left behind as a stopper in the connector when the device is removed after injecting the lock solution, thus ensuring maintained sterility.
- the connector is preferably a luer lock connector. This type of connector ensures a tight connection and may be fitted on most catheters.
- the connector may of course be of any other equivalent design preventing touch contamination during connection to the catheter.
- the frangible tip of the expulsion arrangement may be provided with a peripheral row of indentations.
- the indentations provide a stress raiser which makes it easy to break off the tip of the expulsion arrangement.
- the frangible tip is preferably provided with a substantially radial projection and an inside of the connector provided with a notch, the projection being arranged to engage the notch.
- Another way of enhancing the engagement of the tip of the expulsion arrangement inside the connector is to provide the tip of the expulsion arrangement with a conical shape which tightly fits in an inner conical shape of the connector.
- the housing defines a single compartment which contains the solution to be injected.
- the one-compartment housing allows a particularly simple construction.
- the housing is divided into a first and second compartment.
- two different solutions may be injected using the same applicator device .
- the first compartment in a tip end of the housing is preferably filled with flushing solution and the second compartment in a back end of the housing is preferably filled with a lock solution.
- the applicator device of this embodiment may be used for rinsing a catheter and subsequently applying the lock solution.
- the flushing solution may be e.g. a saline solution.
- the expulsion arrangement may further comprise a divider separating the first and second compartments .
- the divider is a frangible membrane
- a mandrel at the tip end of the housing is arranged to rupture the membrane.
- the frangible tip may be arranged on the plunger or on the divider. A suitable placement of the tip may thus be chosen as desired.
- the device of the invention may comprise a by-pass arranged to shunt the lock solution past the membrane.
- lock solution may effectively be injected once the flushing solution has been injected.
- the divider is a seal including a valve which is openable on pressing down the plunger. This is another way of allowing solution to be expelled from the second compartment into the catheter .
- the plunger may be provided with an abutment means for indicating when the first compartment has been emptied. The nurse or physician thus knows when all flushing solution has been inserted, should he/she wish to wait before injecting also the lock solution.
- the inventive applicator may advantageously be provided with an air removal system for removing air bubbles .
- the air removal system preferably comprises a chamber separated from the atmosphere by an air permeable membrane and arranged to communicate with the catheter when the syringe is connected to the catheter. In this manner, atmospheric pressure may be established in the chamber and blood with air bubbles will flow out into the chamber.
- the method of the invention comprises the steps of: connecting a sterile connector attached to a tip end of a syringe to the catheter or other access system, injecting the lock solution in the catheter by pressing an expulsion arrangement of the syringe including a plunger, thereby engaging a frangible tip of the expulsion arrangement in the connector, removing the syringe from the connector, leaving behind the frangible tip of the expulsion arrangement which is broken off when removing the syringe, closing a lid on the connector.
- lock solution may easily be applied while ensuring maintained sterility in the catheter.
- flushing solution is injected prior to injecting the lock solution.
- the catheter or any other access system may thus conveniently be rinsed before application of the lock solution.
- flushing solution is injected by a first press on the plunger and the lock solution is injected by a second press on the plunger. This is convenient should the nurse or physician wish to wait between rinsing and application of lock solution.
- An abutment means arranged on the plunger may indicate to the nurse or physician when the flushing solution has been expelled from the syringe.
- the flushing solution and subsequently the lock solution are injected in one continuous press on the plunger. This is a quick way of rinsing the catheter and applying the lock solution.

- the inner shape of the connector 3 and the outer shape of the tip 7 ensure that the tip 7 does not enter the catheter. This may be achieved e.g. by means of projections on the outside of the tip 7 and corresponding notches on the inside of the connector 3 or preferably by the tip being shaped as a cone fitting in an inner cone shape of the connector 3.
- the tip 7 is provided with a stress raiser in the form of a peripheral row of punctures or indentations 14.
- the applicator device 101 is similar to the applicator device 1 of Fig. 1, except that the applicator device 101 has a housing 104 which is divided into two compartments 108, 109 delimited by a divider in the form of a frangible membrane 110. With the plunger 105 the membrane 110 forms an expulsion arrangement for expelling solution form the syringe.
- the tip end compartment 108 is filled with flushing solution, e.g.
- a frangible tip 107 is attached to the plunger 105.
- the tip end 106 of the housing 104 is provided with a mandrel 112 arranged in a semicircle.
- the mandrel 112 has a sharp forward cutting edge for rupturing the membrane 110.
- the applicator device 101 is connected to a catheter or other access system via the connector 103.
- the plunger 105 is pressed, first the saline solution of the first compartment 108 is injected into the catheter.
- the membrane 110 has reached the tip end 106 of the housing 104.
- the membrane 110 is then ruptured by the mandrel 112 and continued pressing of the plunger 105 injects the lock solution of the second compartment 109.
- the tip 107 engages the inside of the connector 103 in the same way as in the first embodiment, as can be seen in Fig. 6. Therefore, as the syringe 102 is removed, the tip 107 and the tip end 106 of the housing 104 are left behind, closing the opening of the catheter.

- the tip 307 is left behind, closing the opening of the catheter.
- the tip end 306 of the housing 304 is also broken off and left in the connector 303.
- this embodiment ensures that sterility is maintained in the catheter.
- the applicator device 302 of this fourth embodiment simplifies the rinsing and locking of the catheter since it obviates the need for a separate syringe for the flushing solution.
- a lid 317 is placed over the opening of the connector 303.
- the applicator device 401 is similar to the applicator device of Figs 10-12, except that this fifth embodiment includes an air removal system 402, which consists of a separate chamber 403 of the applicator 401 with an air permeable membrane 404, such that the pressure in the chamber 403 is similar to the atmospheric pressure p 2 outside the applicator 401.
- the air removal system 402 communicates with the catheter.
- the blood pressure pi in the catheter is higher than the pressure p 2 in the chamber 403. The blood with air bubbles will therefore flow into the chamber 403.
- the plunger 405 When the chamber is filled with blood, the plunger 405 is pressed down, so that the stopper 406 moves downwards and becomes penetrated by the mandrel 407. When the stopper 406 is pressed all the way down, the blood with air is enclosed in the chamber 403. By pressing the plunger 405 further down, the rinsing solution in the forward compartment 409 is pressed into the catheter. With the plunger 405, the seal 410 forms an expulsion arrangement for expelling solution from the applicator 401.
- the back end compartment 411 is filled with a lock solution.
- the valve 410 that separates the tip end compartment 409 with the rinsing solution from the back end compartment 411 is provided with a frangible tip 412.
- valve 410 When all rinsing solution has been injected into the catheter, the valve 410 has reached the tip end of the housing, as can be seen in Fig. 16. By continued pressing of the plunger 405, a valve 410 in the seal is opened and the lock solution of the back end compartment 411 can be injected into the catheter.
- the valve 410 in the seal is constituted by slits in the seal, which are normally closed, but which open when the seal impacts spacers 419 at the tip end of the housing.
- the tip 412 As the plunger 405 is pressed all the way down, the tip 412 is also pressed all the way down and engages the inside of the tip end of the housing and the luer lock in the same way as in the other embodiments described above.
- the two-compartment applicator device 101; 201; 301 may be provided with a small abutment on the plunger 105; 205; 305, so that the nurse or physician is given an indication when the tip end compartment 108; 208; 308 has been emptied.
- the plunger 105; 205; 305 may then be pressed further, past the abutment, for emptying the back end compartment. Otherwise, the injection of the flushing solution and the lock solution may be done in one continuous push.
- the two-compartment applicator device 101; 201; 301 or an applicator with more than two compartments may also be suitable in cases where the components of the lock solution need to be stored separately during sterilization and storage.
