Medical product, and a method of handling a medical system

A medical product configured for use in a medical system comprising a first subsystem having a first connection portion,

• the medical product comprising a container containing a medical fluid and a connector configured to connect the first subsystem to the container to permit transport of the medical fluid from the container to the first subsystem,
• the connector comprising:
• a valve device;
• a first connection pipe connected to the valve device and configured to be connected to the first connection portion of the first subsystem;
• and
• a second connection pipe connected to the valve device and to the container,
• the valve device comprising a first part and a second part, said first and second parts being movable in relation to each other to permit an opening movement from a closed stable position, said closed stable position preventing fluid communication between the first connection pipe and the second connection pipe, and an open stable position, said open stable position forming a channel permitting fluid communication between the first connection pipe and the second connection pipe,
• wherein the medical product comprises a blocking member configured, in a blocking state, to prevent the opening movement from the closed stable position to the open stable position, said blocking member being further configured to permit changing of the blocking state of the blocking member to a non-blocking state permitting the opening movement from the closed stable position to the open stable position.

A method of handling a medical system comprising a first subsystem having a first connection portion and a second subsystem having a second connection portion, at least one of the first and second subsystems containing a medical fluid, by means of a connector connecting the first and second subsystems to each other, said connector comprising

• a valve device comprising a first part and a second part;
• a first connection pipe connected to the valve device and configured to be connected to the first connection portion of the first subsystem;
• and
• a second connection pipe connected to the valve device and configured to be connected to the second connection portion of the second subsystem,
• the method comprising the steps of:
• changing a blocking state of a blocking member, said blocking state preventing an opening movement of the first part and the second part in relation to each other, to a non-blocking state;
• moving the first part and the second part in relation to each other from a closed stable position, said closed stable position preventing fluid communication between the first connection pipe and the second connection pipe, and an open stable position, said open stable position forming a channel permitting fluid communication between the first connection pipe and the second connection pipe;
• and
• transporting the medical fluid from one of the first and second subsystems to the other of said first and second subsystem.
