Definitions
- the present invention relates to a packaging device for packaging a medical article designed to be used in conjunction with a medical machine onto which it will be installed before use.
- Extracorporeal blood treatment requires a dialysis treatment machine and the use, in conjunction with the machine, of disposable medical articles that are installed on the machine before the start of the treatment session and are removed from the machine at the end of the session and then thrown away.
- This packaging device includes a wall 2 for receiving the medical article 100.
- the medical article may be at least one dialyser 110, or, alternatively, a set of pre installed disposable elements that will work in conjunction with one another, which will be connected up to the medical machine (cf., in Figure 6, the illustration of the medical machine 200).
- the applicant uses, for example, as medical article, a moulded plastic element (111 - called a "cassette”) that serves as a support and onto which at least one dialyser 110 is premounted.
- the dialyser 110 is a box including a membrane delimiting a first compartment for the passage of blood and a second compartment for the passage of waste liquid and including, therefore, access points (112, 112') such as one or two entries and two exits over which are mounted plastic lines (113, 114, 115, 116) that are designed to be connected to the hydraulic circuit of the dialysis machine.
- the cassette 111 holds the access points (112, 112') of the dialyser and includes eyelets for receiving and holding plastic lines (113, 114, 115, 116) over each of the access points (112, 112'), in particular.
- the cassette 111 also includes preformed cavities (101 , 102) for engagement with members of the medical machine such as fixing means (hooks).
- the plastic lines (113, 114, 115, 116) may have a preformed U shaped configuration in order to be positioned in order to cooperate with pumps of the medical machine.
- the medical article may thus be composed of several elements and requires a packaging that includes a wall that receives and maintains these elements without risk of damage to the elements during storage or during transportation prior to use of the medical article, and without risk of the elements becoming disconnected from one another when the article is an assembly of several parts.
- the known packaging device used has the form of a rectangular box having a rear panel 51 and four lateral panels (52, 53, 54, 55), and includes holding elements (60, 61 , 62, 63, 64, 65) for receiving and holding the medical article, such as, for example, slots in the panels of the box for forming lugs that will be inserted into cavities in the article.
- the medical article may be installed on the machine incorrectly.
- the medical article includes lines that are, for packaging purposes, each rolled up on themselves and held by a tie. When the packaging is removed from the medical article, these lines, or any other similar element not rigidly connected to the cassette, are no longer held in position, and when the cassette of the medical article is picked up by the operator the lines simply hang in space and the operator himself has to attempt to hold them during installation of the article. If one of the lines is not securely held by the user, it may become trapped behind the part of the article that is to be placed against the machine. The line is then immobilized, flattened and even cut, and the medical article has to be reinstalled or, worse, is no longer useable.
- patent application US2003/0029763 relates to a disposable sterile filter that is designed to be coupled to a syringe.
- the sterile filter is encapsulated on its own in a sealed package.
- the package consists of a box and a lid formed from a sheet sealed over the box and capable of being penetrated at a point axially in line with the filter.
- the packaging sheet has preformed rupture lines along which the sheet, subject to an appropriate force, ruptures in order to allow the filter to be picked up by the syringe coupled to it without it being necessary in a first stage to remove the filter from its packaging.
- the installation method includes the following successive steps: pushing the end of a syringe through one point in the packaging sheet, firmly fitting the syringe into the filter, moving the filter/syringe assembly in the direction of the removal of the filter from the packaging, and tearing the sheet along pre cut lines. Installation takes place without the sterile filter being touched.
- This patent application teaches the use of the packaging for installing a syringe on a filter, the particular feature of which is the sterility of the filter that is to be preserved during storage and during coupling.
- the packaging must be sealed and must allow full coupling of the two elements by means of simultaneous insertion of the syringe through the sheet.
- patent application US 6811749 relates to an assembly/package that includes disposable components of an extracorporeal circuit for cardiac bypass surgery that are designed to be connected up to a corresponding medical machine.
- the assembly contains a plurality of components separated by holding panels and grouped into subassemblies packaged by means of a cover sheet.
- the assembly may be packaged in a sealed pouch that includes all the disposable devices and the panels for keeping them sterile.
- the assembly may, without distinction, be attached to or detached from a support device of the machine without the pouch being removed.
- the pouch may be made in two pieces joined together by a sealing strip that joins them and seals the pouch.
- the sealed pouch is used to preserve the sterility of the package and may, without distinction, be detached prior to or after assembly of the device and the machine.
- the problem posed is that of allowing correct, rapid and easy installation of a medical article on a medical machine designed to interact with the article.
- a disposable packaging device 1 including:
- a wall 2 for accommodating a medical article 100 for use in conjunction with a medical machine 200, the medical article 100 including mounting means 101 , the medical machine 200 including mounting means 201 for engagement with the mounting means of the medical article 101 ;
- the invention also relates to the disposable packaging device 1 defined above that includes a medical article 100 designed to be used in conjunction with a medical machine 200, the medical article including mounting means 100 designed for engagement with mounting means 201 of the machine, the medical article 100 being packaged such that the passage opening 20 allows the mounting means 101 of the article to be engaged with the mounting means 201 of the machine.
- the invention relates to a method for mounting a medical article 100 packaged by a disposable packaging device 1 on a medical machine 200;
- the article 100 including mounting means 101 ;
- the machine 200 including mounting means 201 designed for engagement with the article mounting means 101 ;
- the packaging device 1 including:
- the method including the steps of: a) taking the article 100 packaged by the packaging device 1 ; b) engaging the article mounting means 101 with the machine mounting means
- the passage opening 20 defined in the wall 2 of the packaging device 1 makes it possible to install at least a part of the medical article 100 on the medical machine 200 while the article 100 is still packaged. There is no longer a need for a flat surface on which to place the packaged article 100 in order to remove it from its packaging 1.
- the facilitated installation process includes one less stage and requires one less use constraint (work surface);
- the article 100 is installed while the elements constituting the article are held in place: hence no line or similar element not securely fixed to the base of the article can be wedged or damaged during installation and the medical article is engaged correctly on the medical machine;
- the preferential rupture zone makes it possible to detach the packaging device once it has been coupled to the medical machine by means of preferential rupture of this zone in a predetermined manner.
- the packaging is removed from the article without damaging or removing any element of the article.
- Figure 1 shows the packaging 1 alone without the medical article according to the prior art in a perspective view in a partially open position
- Figure 2 shows the packaging 1 according to the prior art in front view in an entirely open position and ready to receive the medical article 100;
- Figures 3 and 4 respectively, show the packaging device 1 alone according to the invention without the medical article in perspective view in a partially open position and entirely closed position, respectively;
- Figure 5 shows a front view of the packaging device 1 alone according to the invention in the open position
- Figure 6 shows an exploded perspective view of the set up consisting of the medical article 100 and the packaging device 1 according to the invention installed on the medical machine 200.
- FIG 3 shows a disposable packaging device 1 according to the invention that, in addition to the characteristics of the invention that will be described below, may include the characteristics of the packaging device according to the prior art illustrated in Figure 1 for receiving the article illustrated in Figure 2. Shared characteristics are denoted by the same numerals.
- the packaging device 1 of Figure 3 includes a wall 2 for accommodating a medical article 100 that is designed for use in conjunction with a medical machine 200, the medical article 100 including mounting means 101 and the medical machine 200 including mounting means 201 designed for engagement with the mounting means 101 of the medical article.
- the device 1 also includes a passage opening 20 defined in the wall 2 with a configuration such that the mounting means 101 of the packaged article can be engaged with the mounting means 201 of the machine, and a preferential rupture zone 30 produced on the wall 2 in order to allow predetermined rupture of the wall 2.
- the preferential rupture zone 30 may include a structural weakness produced on the wall 2.
- the structural weakness includes a structural discontinuity comprising at least one element chosen from the group that includes an incision in the wall 2, a cut through the wall 2, a series of holes in the wall 2, a fold in the wall 2, a change of thickness in the wall 2 or a change of material in the wall 2.
- the change of material includes a material having a lower strength than that of the wall 2.
- the part of the preferential rupture zone 30 includes a non uniform structural weakness.
- the wall 2 of the packaging device may include a rear panel 51 on which the passage opening 20 is defined.
- the wall 2 may define a box whose rear panel 51 is a polygon and which has as many lateral panels (52, 53, 54, 55) as the polygon has sides.
- the rear panel 51 may be substantially rectangular.
- the box may include a front panel 56 designed to at least partially cover the medical article 100.
- this front panel 56 is formed from two parts that partially cover the box over two opposite sides of the rear panel 51.
- a front panel 56 that entirely covers the box may be produced for forming a box that is practically sealed, with the exception of the passage opening 20.
- At least two panels chosen from among the lateral panels (52, 53, 54, 55) and the rear panel 51 may be formed from a sheet.
- “Sheet” is understood to mean a surface of which two dimensions are much larger than the third dimension (the thickness).
- This sheet may be rigid or semi rigid.
- Rigid sheet is understood to mean a sheet that does not flex under bending stresses and does not deform under deformation stresses.
- Si rigid sheet is understood to mean a sheet that will flex or roll up under a bending stress and that will not deform under deformation stresses, by means of pulling, for example.
- All the lateral panels (52, 53, 54, 55) may be formed from a plastic sheet, e.g. a polypropylene sheet, or from a sheet of cardboard, etc.
- the rear panel 51 , the panels (52, 53, 54, 55) and the front panel 56 may be formed from a single sheet folded so as to form the panels.
- Each lateral panel (52, 53, 54, 55) may be connected to each of its adjacent lateral panels by an attachment means (52 ⁇ 53', 54', 55") formed on each panel (52, 53, 54, 55).
- At least one lateral panel attachment means (52', 53', 54', 55') comprises at least one cut defining a slot (52', 54') on a panel and at least one cut defining a lug (53', 55') on a panel designed for engagement in the slot (52', 54") of the corresponding adjacent lateral panel.
- the front panel 56 may include attachment means
- At least one attachment means of the lateral panels (52, 54) may comprise at least one cut defining a slot (52", 54") on the lateral panel (52, 54) designed to receive at least one cut defining a lug (56") on the front panel (56).
- the wall may also be provided with attachment means (64, 65) for the medical article.
- attachment means 64, 65 for the medical article.
- These means for attachment to the article may be slots made in the wall 2 for receiving and holding parts of the medical article or for engaging in cavities of the medical article, or may be lugs (62, 63) for receiving, for example, lines of the medical article wound up on themselves.
- These slots or lugs may be positioned on any front, rear or lateral panel. Any known holding means may be envisaged and positioned at any suitable place so as to interact with at least one part of the chosen article.
- the wall may include a semi rigid part 3.
- “Semi rigid” is understood to mean a material that will flex or roll up under a bending stress and that will not deform under deformation stresses, for example by means of pulling.
- Such a material may be a plastic (polypropylene, for example), capable of bending slightly under the stress but not deforming, or cardboard.
- the semi rigid part 3 may at least partially delimit the passage opening 20 and may also totally delimit the passage opening 20.
- the wall 2 may include a plastic film 4, alone or in combination with a semi rigid part 3.
- a plastic film is understood to mean a thin sheet capable of matching the shapes of the medical article. It may be a plastic film (for example, polyethylene), which is heat formable and would be placed on or around the article and heated in order to match the shapes of the article and hold each element of the article. The description “blister” is generally used.
- the plastic film 4 may partially cover the semi rigid part 3 and surround the passage opening 20.
- This may take the form of a rigid or semi rigid box covered by a plastic film, the film being fixed by heat welding or adhesive bonding.
- the film 4 may totally cover the semi rigid part 3 and surround the passage opening 20.
- This film 4 may be fixed to the semi rigid part 3, for example by means of heat sealing or adhesive bonding, and the film includes a part outside the fixing (a tab, for example), that the operator can pull in order to remove the film.
- the preferential rupture zone may thus extend over the semi rigid part 3 or over the film 4, or over both (3, 4).
- a part of the wall may be transparent in order to identify the medical article.
- a part of the wall may receive words describing the product and its characteristics.
- the passage opening 20 is delimited by a contour 20'.
- the rupture zone 30 may extend from at least one point of this contour 20'.
- the preferential rupture zone 30 may therefore have a non uniform structural weakness that is greater in the zone close to the contour 20' of the passage opening 20.
- the wall 2 may include a gripping zone 21 partially delimited by at least one point of the contour 20' of the passage opening 20.
- the operator may rupture the wall along its preferential rupture zone by seizing and pulling on the gripping zone 21.
- the gripping zone 21 may be delimited by a part of the wall (rear panel 51 , for example) that is cut and extends transversely relative to this part of the wall in order to form a kind of tab to be seized.
- the gripping zone may also be a protuberance formed in the wall and capable of being seized by an operator. The gripping zone may even have the dual function of possibly being gripped by an operator and holding a part of the medical article.
- the wall may thus delimit a receptacle for the article, the only opening of which is the passage opening 20 delimiting a single contour 20'.
- the wall 2 may be delimited by an auxiliary contour 2". This means that, in addition to the contour 20" defining the passage opening, the wall has an auxiliary contour 2' and will thus not be closed entirely (except for the passage opening 20 that is still present).
- the preferential rupture zone 30 may extend between at least one point of the contour 20" and at least one point of the auxiliary contour 2' in order to allow a predetermined rupture between the two contours.
- the non uniform structural weakness of the rupture zone 30 is greater in the zone close to the auxiliary contour 2' of the wall 2: this makes it possible more easily to initiate rupture of the zone starting from the point of the auxiliary contour 2'.
- the preferential rupture zone 30 may include at least one rupture line 31.
- This line may also have a narrow width (less than a few millimetres).
- This zone may also have the form of two lines of identical width offset from one another by a short distance (a few millimetres).
- this may be a straight line segment.
- the preferential rupture zone 30 may also include at least one auxiliary rupture line 32.
- the auxiliary line 32 may be a straight line segment.
- At least one of these rupture fines (31 , 32) is defined by a discontinuous cut 33 formed on the wall 2.
- This cut may be an incision in the material of the wall or a cut traversing the wall.
- This discontinuous cut 33 may include a plurality of consecutive cut segments 34, the width of which may be non uniform. More particularly, over at least one portion of the discontinuous cut 33 the length of the cut segments 34 increases or, alternatively, decreases, as it approaches the contour 20' of the passage opening 20. This absence of uniformity is fixed as a function of the chosen tear direction.
- the discontinuous cut 33 may at least partially define non cut segments 35, the length of which increases or decreases from the contour 2' towards the auxiliary contour 20' of the passage opening 20.
- At least one of the straight line segments (31, 32) may be chosen so as substantially to define the smallest length connecting a point of the contour 20' of the passage opening 20 at a point of the auxiliary contour 2' of the wall 2. As illustrated in Figure 3, the segments 31 and 32 are positioned such that the length of the segment is the shortest distance between a point of the contour 2' and a point of the contour 20'.
- the straight line segments (31, 32) may be substantially perpendicular and thus define two parts of the wall of different surface areas: a part having a small surface area and another having a larger surface area.
- the straight line segments (31, 32) may be substantially parallel, for example on the same straight line, more particularly on a straight line included in a transverse symmetrical plane of the packaging device.
- the packaging device 1 may be manufactured as follows: a semi rigid polypropylene sheet is formed. Its contour is cut to produce a rectangular rear panel, four lateral panels and two portions constituting a partial front panel 56. At the same time, or after the contour is cut, on the one hand the cutting of slots takes place in each part used as a panel (51, 52, 53, 54, 55), to form means of attachment to other panels (52', 52", 53', 54', 54", 55', 56', 56", and, on the other hand, the cutting of slots or of openings takes place in the rear panel, in particular in order to form holding means (65, 64) for the medical article or slots (30, 61, 62, 63) in lateral panels (53, 55).
- the preferential rupture zone 30 also takes place, by means of cutting, incision or formation of holes.
- the rupture zone 30 may be formed during manufacture of the wall if the zone is a weakness of material or a difference in thickness.
- formation of the preferential rupture zone 30 may take place after cutting of the wall if this zone 30 is the result of folding.
- formation of the passage opening 20 in the wall takes place. This may be the result of cutting, for example.
- the method for assembling the medical article 100 with the packaging device 1 may include the following steps:

- the "passage opening” may, in particular, be a single hole, but a person skilled in the art may adapt this passage opening in order to make it several holes traversing the packaging, depending on the mounting means of the machine and of the article.
- the packaging device may include as many passage openings 20 as there are machine protuberances necessary for mounting the article, or, alternatively, may include at least one opening of which the contour makes it possible to receive the several protuberances of the machine.
- the medical article includes two cavities (101 , 102), into each of which a pair of hooks (201 , 202) of the machine will be fixed, obviously in a removable manner.
