Abstract

Some embodiments disclosed herein relate to a device for transferring precise amounts of fluid from at least one source container to at least one target container. In some embodiments, the fluid is first transferred from the source container (e.g., a vial) through a connector to an intermediate measuring container (e.g., a syringe). In some embodiments air can pass through an air inlet and enter the vial to compensate for the volume of fluid withdrawn from the vial. An air check valve or a bag or a filter can prevent the fluid from escaping through the air inlet. The precisely measured amount of fluid can then be transferred from the intermediate measuring container to the target container (e.g., an IV bag). In some embodiments the connector can include a source check valve and a target check valve to direct fluid first from the source container to the intermediate measuring container and then from the intermediate measuring container to the target container. Some embodiments of the device can include a motor and a controller for automatically actuating a plunger of the syringe to transfer the desired amount of fluid.

Claims (46)

1. An electronically controlled medical fluid transfer system being configured to transfer medical fluid from a source container to a destination container, the medical fluid transfer system comprising:

an electronic fluid transfer station comprising:

an electric motor;

a pump being functionally connected to the electric motor, the pump being configured to transfer medical fluid between a source container and a destination container with a determinable weight;

a user interface comprising a display, the display being configured to receive user input and to convey information to a user;

a memory being configured to store information;

a pedal;

a scanner;

a printer;

an electronic controller being in electrical communication with the motor, the user interface, the memory, the pedal, the scanner, and the printer, the electronic controller being configured to determine if the source container is empty; and

a sensor being configured to detect a connector in use with the electronic fluid transfer station; and

a disposable fluid transfer tubing being configured to be removably functionally connected to the pump,

wherein the electronic controller is configured to receive information indicative of the weight of the destination container to determine how much fluid to transfer.

2. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 1 further comprising the source container.

3. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 1 further comprising the destination container.

4. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 1 , wherein the pump is a syringe pump.

5. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 4 , wherein the disposable fluid transfer tubing is within a module attached to the syringe pump.

6. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 5 , wherein the module comprises a valve.

7. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to store a predetermined value in the memory, and wherein the predetermined value relates to the weight of the destination container.

8. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 7 , wherein the controller is further configured to stop transfer of fluid based upon the predetermined value in the memory.

9. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 1 further comprising a support tray being configured to hold the destination container.

10. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 9 , wherein the support tray extends horizontally away from a housing of the electronic fluid transfer station.

11. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 9 , further comprising a weight sensor functionally connected to the support tray.

12. An electronically controlled medical fluid transfer system being configured to transfer medical fluids from a source container to a destination container, the medical fluid transfer system comprising:

an electronic fluid transfer station comprising:

an electric motor;

a pump being configured to be driven by the electric motor and to transfer medical fluid;

a user interface comprising a display, the display being configured to receive user input and to convey information to a user;

a memory being configured to store information;

an electronic controller being in electrical communication with the motor, the user interface, and the memory, the controller being configured to:

store a value relating to a weight of the destination container in the memory, and

determine if the source container is empty;

a disposable fluid transfer tubing being configured to be functionally connected to the pump; and

a sensor being configured to detect a presence of a connector functionally attached to the electronic fluid transfer station; and

wherein the controller is configured to receive information relating to the weight of the destination container and to compare that information to the value from the memory to determine how much fluid to transfer.

13. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 further comprising the source container.

14. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 further comprising the destination container.

15. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 further comprising a pedal.

16. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 15 , wherein the pedal is configured to start a transfer of medical fluid.

17. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 , wherein the pump is a syringe pump.

18. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 , wherein the tubing is connected to a closeable fluid connector.

19. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 18 , wherein the tubing is connected to two closeable fluid connectors to form a fluid-tight enclosure.

20. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 19 , wherein an electronic communication interface is configured to communicate with a remote source.

21. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 20 , wherein the electronic communication interface provides a wireless communication link.

22. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 11 , wherein a weight measured by the weight sensor is communicated electronically from the weight sensor to the electronic controller.

23. The medical fluid transfer system of claim 12 , further comprising a weight sensor, wherein a weight measured by the weight sensor is communicated electronically from the weight sensor to the electronic controller.
