An injection device may include a container, a mobile component, a spring, a sensor, and/or a wireless communication device. The container may have an open proximal end, a substantially closed distal end, and a reservoir including a medicament defined between the open proximal end and the substantially closed distal end. The mobile component may be provided in the container and be movable with respect to the container to cause the medicament to be expelled from the container. The spring may be connected to the mobile component and configured to cause the mobile component to move within the container. The sensor may be connected to an end of the spring and configured to measure a parameter associated with an injection operation of the injection device. The wireless communication device may be configured to communicate, to a computing device, information associated with the injection operation of the injection device.

A medical device and kit for visually displaying an injection pressure of a fluid, The device has a fluid path for the fluid and includes a piezochromic material which, under the action of a pressure of < 100 bar, displays a piezochromic color change that is perceptible to the human eye.

OCULAR INJECTOR AND METHODS FOR ACCESSING SUPRACHOROIDAL SPACE OF THE EYE
20230372235 · 2023-11-23 ·

An ocular medical injector is provided for drug delivery. A method includes inserting a puncture member of the medical injector into the eye until the puncture member reaches the SCS. The puncture member defines a lumen therethrough. With the puncture member disposed within the SCS, a flexible cannula is advanced distally through the lumen of the puncture member, beyond the distal end portion of the puncture member and along the SCS towards a posterior region of the eye. The flexible cannula has an atraumatic distal tip and defines a lumen therethrough. With the distal tip of the flexible cannula disposed within the SCS beyond a distal end portion of the puncture member, a therapeutic substance is administered to the SCS.

INTRA-ARTICULAR NEEDLE PLACEMENT DEVICE AND METHOD OF USING
20230019674 · 2023-01-19 ·

The present invention relates to a device for measuring, recording, and acting in response to changes in air pressures encountered through the lumen of a connected needle. The device signals when it has been powered and signals when the device recognizes both pressures and pressure change rates indicative of synovial cavity joint penetration, such as knee joint penetration. Synovial cavity pressures detected and acted upon may either be supra- (positive) or sub-atmospheric (negative). Internal light emitting diodes and a laptop connected display are demonstrated as signaling and communication mechanisms. Methods for delivering medicaments into human and animal intra-articular cavities or joints such as synovial cavities are provided. Furthermore, methods for facilitating the diagnoses of joint effusion also are provided.

Apparatus and kits for fluid infusion

An infusion device includes a housing with an interior chamber sized and configured to hold at least a flange and plunger of a syringe, a trigger held by the housing, and a lever in communication with the trigger and including an upwardly extending cam with a cam path having an upper end. The cam is in communication with the flange of the syringe. In response to actuation of the trigger to dispense fluid from the syringe, the upper end of the cam travels upward above the syringe and longitudinally toward a dispensing end of the syringe to linearly translate the plunger of the syringe in a first direction to dispense fluid from the syringe. To refill fluid into the syringe, the upper end of the cam travels downward and longitudinally away from the dispensing end of the syringe to linearly translate the plunger in a second direction to intake fluid.

PEN-LIKE SYRINGE SYSTEM
