ABSTRACT:
A unitary, flexible container, for containment and delivery of medical fluids, having:
a) first and second polymeric sheets superimposed and sealed together at their periphery defining an interior reservoir, the container having a top portion, a mid portion and a bottom portion; the bottom portion terminates in a first angle and a second angle of from about 5.degree. to about 45.degree. each from the center of the bottom portion to a horizontal plane crossing the center of the bottom portion;
b) an access member integral with the unitary, flexible container located at the center of the bottom portion allowing filling the flexible container with medical fluids and access to the medical fluids for delivery to a patient; and
c) at least one oval shaped rigid reinforcing disc positioned in the mid portion of the interior reservoir to prevent collapse of the walls of the container on each other causing hold up of droplets.
