Described is a priming device to prime a gas from a fluid delivery system by receiving the gas and a fluid used to push the gas into a chamber, the priming device including a housing having a chamber, an inlet port, and an opening to release gas received into the chamber. The device further includes a sleeve having an open first end for coupling with a male luer connector, a second end coupled to the housing, and an axis between the first and second ends. The sleeve defines at least one window. The device further includes an arm extending from a bottom of each window toward the first end, and a member extending radially from an inner surface of each arm. Each member has a ramp surface, an engagement surface extending transversely to the ramp surface, and an apex area that transitions between the ramp surface and the engagement surface.

An air removal apparatus for an autoinjector is disclosed. The air removal apparatus can remove or trap air within the autoinjector, preventing the removed or trapped air from displacing medicament or being injected into the patient. The air removal apparatus removes or traps air by creating a vacuum. The vacuum can remove air from the medicament and can trap air within a section of the auto injector that is separated from the medicament.

A device for coupling to a fluid connector of an IV administration set to resist contamination of the fluid connector and IV administration set and permit priming of the IV administration set. The device including a cover body having a cavity for receiving the fluid connector, a priming passage for priming fluid from the IV administration set through the fluid connector, and a coupling tab extending from the cover body, the coupling tab permitting the cover body to be coupled to a length of an IV line or other portion of the IV administration set to resist contamination and permit priming of the IV administration set.

Injection devices for delivering pharmaceutical compositions into the eye are described. Some devices include a resistance component for controllably deploying an injection needle through the eye wall. The resistance component may be disposed on the injector device, or on a portion of the injection device housing, or on a drug reservoir. Some devices may be removably attached to a drug reservoir, for example, through a luer connector. Other devices may comprise internal luer seal for securely connecting a drug conduit of the device to the luer cavity of a drug reservoir. Yet other devices may comprise a priming-enabling element to facilitate the drug priming of a shielded needle. Related methods and systems comprising the devices are also described.

A gas elimination apparatus and a method for use in an intravenous delivery system are provided. The apparatus includes a fluid inlet coupling a fluid flow into a liquid chamber, a fluid outlet protruding into the liquid chamber, and a flow diversion member proximal to the fluid outlet. The flow diversion member configured to block a direct flow between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The apparatus includes a membrane separating a portion of the liquid chamber from an outer chamber and a gas venting valve fluidically coupling the outer chamber with the atmosphere. The flow diversion member may be mechanically supported by at least one strut or elongate member extending along a flow direction into the liquid chamber.

The present invention relates to a cylinder pump including: a body part having a main body with a coupling groove formed thereon and a front body coupled to the main body by means of hinges; a cartridge detachably attached to the coupling groove of the body part; a driving part located inside the main body to operate the cartridge; a display part located on the front body to provide an interface necessary for the operation thereof; a controller for controlling the operation of the driving part; and an operating part for transmitting a user's operating signal or input information to the controller.

Described is a priming device to prime a gas from a fluid delivery system by receiving the gas and a fluid used to push the gas into a chamber, the priming device including a housing having a chamber, an inlet port, and an opening to release gas received into the chamber. The device further includes a valve extending from the inlet port toward the chamber and a cover body comprising one or more flexible protrusions extending axially inward from an inner surface of the cover body. The cover body has an open first end, an open second end, and an axis between the first end and the second end, the first end configured to couple with a male luer connector, the second end configured to couple with the inlet port of the housing, wherein the cover body is moveable relative to the housing.

An inline microgravity air trap device includes an elongate air trap chamber, the air trap chamber having a blind end, an opposite air outlet end containing a gas egress opening, a fluid inlet port connecting to a pressurized fluid supply, a fluid outlet port connecting the air trap chamber to a fluid delivery destination, a filter forming a tube having an interior, a first end at the blind end of the air trap chamber and a second end at the gas egress opening, and a structural insert in the interior of the tube, having a first insert end located at the blind end, and a second insert end located the air outlet end, where the chamber is formed to direct fluid from the pressurized fluid supply to accelerate centrifugally around the filter, forcing gas contained in the fluid to pass through the filter into the interior of the tube.
