Device and method for the dilution and preparation of antiblastic drugs
First Claim
1. Device for the dilution and preparation of antiblastic drugs comprising at least one drug preparation unit provided with a first central tank, said first central tank containing a solvent, a first positive-displacement pump, said first positive-displacement pump comprising a peristaltic pump, an emptying unit for at least one bottle of drug, said first positive-displacement pump being suitable for transferring in a dosed manner said solvent from said central tank to said at least one bottle of drug, said emptying unit comprising a positioning and locking arrangement having a housing suitable for receiving various dimensions and formats of said bottles, wherein said device comprises a further tank for the semi-processed drug, said further tank being filled by said first positive-displacement pump after said at least one bottle of drug, a second positive-displacement pump, said second positive-displacement pump comprising a peristaltic pump, for transferring in a dosed manner the diluted drug from said further tank of the semi-finished drug to a container of prepared drug, wherein said further tank comprises in the upper part an inlet conduit and a hydrophobic filter that enables the tank to be ventilated, filtering particles and microorganisms.

Abstract
A device and a method for the dilution and preparation of antiballistic drugs, the device comprises a drug preparation unit connected to a controlling device; the drug preparation unit comprises a first central tank, in which there is a solvent, typically a physiological and/or glucosate solution, a first positive-displacement pump, an emptying unit connected to a positioning and locking arrangement provided with a housing suitable for receiving various dimensions and formats of dimensions and formats of bottles of drug; the first positive-displacement pump transfers in a dosed manner the solvent from the central tank to the bottle, and in succession from the bottle to a further tank of semifinished drug; the diluted drug solution in the further tank is then transferred to a container of prepared drug in a determined quantity for infusion into a patient.
