In peritoneal dialysis equipment a removable connection is formed between the catheter 1 and the giving tube 3 within a temporary clean enclosure formed by a flexible wall 11. Preferably the catheter 1 and the giving tube 3 each end at a boss 9, 12 and the flexible wall 11 takes the form of a tube of bellows construction attached permanently around one boss and fitting tightly over the other. A plug 16 may be provided within the enclosure for sealing the catheter 1 when it is not connected to the giving tube 3, and a peg 15 may be provided on the boss 12 of the giving tube 3 for supporting the plug 16 when not in use. <IMAGE> |
