Medical - Medical: Instruments
German term or phrase: Multi-MEDfix
This is from a report on the initial sample testing of a lithotripsie system. Google has no hits for "Multi-MEDfix", and I don't even see "MEDfix" with that capitalization. "Luer lock" is explained in a Wikipedia entry, but I can't tell if this sentence is referring to a Multi-MEDfix Luer lock (as I'm guessing in my translation) or what. I see that, indeed, there is a medical supplies company named Medfix, but I don't know what "Multi-MEDfix" means, or precisely how to translate this sentence. Any comments would be appreciated.

Es wurden bereits Erstmusterprüfungen mit Maß-, Funktions- und Sichtprüfung der Einzelartikel durchgeführt. Für den Multi-MEDfix, Luer Lock selbst sind keine Prüfmaße festgelegt.

Initial sample tests were already carried out with dimensional, functional, and visual inspection of the individual items. Test dimensions are not specified for the multi MEDfix, Luer lock.

Explanation:

...I agree with your suggestion and would put it like this:

"No test dimensions have been specified for the multi MEDfix, Luer lock"

Since a definite product cannot be identified, keeping the term (while adding a translator note) would be most appropriate IMO

Reference information:
Unter dem nachstehenden Link kann man Ähnliches finden. Ich bin der Meinung, dass unter Multi-MEDfix gerade einer wie der auf dem Bild dargestellte Adapter gemeint werden könnte.
