Microneedle-based pen device for drug delivery and method for using same

A system and method is provided for an injectable substance delivery pen comprising a microneedle hub assembly removably engaged with a pen device body which includes a cartridge, a plunger, and a drive mechanism. The hub assembly includes at least one microneedle for intradermal or shallow subcutaneous injection of the contents of the cartridge. The cartridge, plunger and drive mechanism components of the pen body are fabricated of non-compliant and non-compressible materials to allow effective communication of the cartridge contents via the microneedle patient interface.

Intradermal injector

An injection device that comprises a chamber configured for containing a substance to be injected and a needle operatively associated with the chamber and having a length sufficient to deliver the substance to an intradermal injection site. A collar surrounds the needle, defining a collar cavity. The collar also has a peripheral forward skin-contacting surface that surrounds and is radially spaced from the needle and injection site by an area that is sufficiently large to allow a patient's skin to move into the collar cavity to properly position the needle for intradermal delivery of the substance to the injection site to allow spread of the injected substance under the skin while inhibiting or preventing backpressure within the skin from forcing the substance out through the injection site.

Body contour adaptable autoinjector device

An injector for delivering a therapeutic product may include a base having a flexible surface that conforms to various body contours of a patient and defines one or more an injection chambers. The injector may have a height that is substantially less than its width, thereby defining a low profile, which provides a larger more stable base that can pinch or stretch the skin in a controlled manner. The larger base can also accommodate larger volumes via multiple injection chambers and/or large combined primary containers.

Injector With Adjustable Dosing

An injector for injecting a medicament in a patient. The injector includes a container comprising a fluid chamber containing a first volume of a medicament, and an injection conduit associated with the fluid chamber for defining a fluid pathway therefrom to inject the medicament from the fluid chamber through the injection conduit to an injection location. The injector also includes a firing mechanism associated with the fluid chamber for expelling the medicament from the fluid chamber through the injection conduit, and a volume-control mechanism operable to control a fraction of the first volume of medicament that is injected when the firing mechanism is actuated to inject the medicament.

AID FOR SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE INJECTION AND PROCESS OF EFFECTING THE INJECTION WITH THE AID
20200101240 · 2020-04-02 ·

The present disclosure is concerned with a device for facilitating a subcutaneous injection and a process for administering the subcutaneous injection. The device has a peripheral frame and an injection needle or an aperture in a central portion of the frame adapted to hold an injection needle. The peripheral frame has an arm or arms adapted to contact the skin at points distant enough from each other to allow the arms or arm to penetrate into the skin a distance greater than the thickness of the skin, a central portion which joins the arms above the terminal portions or portion and an injection needle affixed to the central portion, facing in the same direction as the penetration ends of the arms or an aperture in the central portion adapted to hold an injection needle facing in the same direction as the penetration ends of the arms.

MEDICINE INJECTING TIP, HAND PIECE, AND SKIN TREATING DEVICE
20200093996 · 2020-03-26 · ·

Provided are a medicine injecting tip, which injects a medicine into a hole in a skin formed by a needle while invading the needle to a preset depth of a deep portion of the skin, a hand piece equipped with the medicine injecting tip, and a skin treatment device using the medicine injecting tip. The medicine injecting tip includes a cylinder, a plunger that reciprocates downward and upward, and has a first space and a second space formed inside the cylinder, and a needle disposed in the plunger and disposed in the second space of the cylinder. The needle is inserted into a skin and a negative pressure state is formed in the second space when the plunger moves downward, and the needle is discharged from the skin and a positive pressure state is formed in the second space, when the plunger moves upward.

Operational instrument for fluid injector using multi-microneedle device

An operation tool for a fluid injector includes an outer cylinder having a housing extending from a first open end to a second open end, and a selective transfer mechanism provided on the outer cylinder. The selective transfer mechanism moves the fluid injector from an initial position to a first protrusion position and then to a second protrusion position in the housing of the outer cylinder. When the fluid injector is at the initial position, the multi-microneedle device has microneedles retracted from the first open end and positioned inside the housing, when the fluid injector is at the first protrusion position, the microneedles are protruded out to a first distance from the first open end, and when the fluid injector is at the second protrusion position, the microneedles are protruded out to a second distance from the first open end. The second distance is shorter than the first distance.

Needle-less injector and method of fluid delivery
11878147 · 2024-01-23 · ·

A method and system of providing a needle-less injector specifically configured to the needs of a user. The method includes assembling a needle-less injector by positioning an inner housing within the outer housing such that the inner housing is axially movable within the outer housing between a ready position and a firing position. The method further includes receiving a user selection of a delivery spring weight from a plurality of available delivery spring weights. Then a delivery spring having the selected spring weight is placed within the inner housing. The completed needle-less injector having a delivery spring with the selected weigh may then be delivered to the user. In alternative injector configurations, the user may also select one or more of a skin tensioning spring weight or a hammer length along with or instead of the delivery spring weight.

Apparatus and method for the preparation and administration of blood components

A dual chambered syringe includes: an inner barrel defining a first inner chamber, the inner barrel having an apertured stopper at its distal end, the inner barrel being open at its proximal end; a shaft adapted to fit within the inner barrel, the shaft having a distal end which is engageable with the aperture of the stopper; a device for controlling engaging and disengaging of the distal end of the shaft with the aperture of the stopper; an outer barrel concentric with the inner barrel defining a second inner chamber, the outer barrel having a distal end for receiving and dispensing fluids and a proximal end into which the distal end of the inner barrel is insertable into the second inner chamber; the apertured stopper engages the second inner chamber of the outer barrel and selectively prevents or permits the passage of fluids between the outer barrel second chamber and the inner barrel first chamber; the inner barrel having an engageable surface on its outside surface; and, the outer barrel having operatively associated therewith an engaging device for selective engagement and disengagement with the engageable surface on the inner barrel.

Device for maintaining a user's vein in position and device for puncturing or injecting into a user's vein
