A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11992197B2) discloses a set of medical sampling parts designed to facilitate the collection and separation of sampling fluids from a medical device. The set includes a sample container with a detachable cap part and a sampling device made of rigid material to establish a secure connection between the sample container and the medical device. The sampling device features a locking ridge, sampling inlet, and outlet that allow for the separation of liquid and gas components of the sampling fluid. Additionally, the set includes a flow path extension device to prolong the flow path of gas within the sampling fluid, enhancing the efficiency of the separation process.

Furthermore, the patent details the configuration of the sampling parts, including the positioning of the sampling inlet and outlet, the design of the snap lever for securing the sample container to the sampling device, and the inclusion of a connector for inserting the flow path extension device. The set of medical sampling parts is particularly suitable for use with medical devices such as endoscopes or catheters, providing a reliable and efficient means of collecting and processing sampling fluids. The innovative features of the set aim to improve the overall sampling process and ensure accurate results in medical procedures involving the collection of bodily fluids or tissues.
