Abstract
The present invention relates to a double connector for a tubular insert intended to connect an extra-corporeal circuit to a peristaltic pump. The double connector comprises: a first channel with an axis a1, a second channel with an axis a2 not parallel to a1, a pressure chamber arranged along the first channel and suitable for co-operation with a pressure sensor. The pressure chamber is closed, on the opposite side with respect to the second channel, by a membrane which extends mainly in a plane π substantially parallel to both the axes a1 and a2.Moreover, a straight line r, passing through both axes a1 and a2 and perpendicular thereto, crosses the membrane. The invention also relates to a tubular insert comprising the double connector and an extra-corporeal circuit comprising the tubular insert.
