Vaporizer cartridges and vaporizer apparatuses, and methods for making, using and delivering vapor to a user, that are leak-resistant for use with cannabinoids. In particular, described herein are leak-resistant vaporizer cartridges and apparatuses adapted for use with oil-based vaporizable materials including cannabis oils.

In one aspect, a peritoneal dialysis (PD) system includes a housing that receives a disposable cassette, a plurality of pinch valves that receive respective sections of fluid tubing of the disposable cassette, an air port that forms an airtight seal with an air line of the disposable cassette, an air pump that alternatingly pushes air out of the air port and pulls air in from the air port, and a computer processor that controls the plurality of pinch valves and the air pump such that the cassette performs a dwell phase in which the diaphragm pump pumps fresh dialysate from a dialysate bag to a heater bag, a fill phase in which the diaphragm pump pumps the fresh dialysate from the heater bag to a patient line, and a drain phase in which the diaphragm pump pumps spent dialysate form the patient to a drain.

A fluid delivery system includes a control interface and multiple unique loading guides. The control interface of the fluid delivery system receives a fluid pump assembly. The multiple loading guides are retractable from the fluid delivery system to retain and control movement of a facing of the fluid pump assembly to contact the control interface on the facing of the fluid delivery system. In one configuration, the control interface is disposed in a cavity of the fluid delivery system; the multiple loading guides are disposed at locations in proximity to the cavity. The multiple loading guides slidably retract in unison to support substantially orthogonal insertion of the fluid pump assembly into the cavity of the fluid delivery system.

The disclosed device serves for artificial respiration and has a blower connected to a control. The blower is held by a supporting part, which assumes the task of decoupling and other functions. The blower and the supporting part are arranged in a blower box. Both the control and the blower box are arranged in a housing. The control is connected to at least one indicating device and also to at least one operating element.

A fluid handling cassette, such as that useable with an automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) cycler device or other infusion apparatus, may include a generally planar body having at least one pump chamber formed as a depression in a first side of the body and a plurality of flowpaths for a fluid that includes a channel. A patient line port may be arranged for connection to a patient line and be in fluid communication with the at least one pump chamber via at least a first one of said flowpaths, and an optional membrane may be attached to the first side of the body over the at least one pump chamber. In one embodiment, the membrane may have a pump chamber portion with an unstressed shape that generally conforms to the depression of the at least one pump chamber in the body and is arranged to be movable for movement of the fluid in a useable space of the at least one pump chamber. One or more spacers may be provided in the at least one pump chamber to prevent the membrane from contacting an inner wall of the at least one pump chamber. The patient line, a drain line, and/or a heater bag line may be positioned to be separately occludable in relation to one or more solution lines that are connectable to the cassette.

The invention relates to a medical high-pressure injector for injecting a liquid provided in a syringe (2.1, 2.2) into a patient, wherein the injector has at least one syringe holder (10) with an associated drive unit for the syringe (2.1, 2.2) held therein as well as connecting lines for transmitting the liquid from the syringe (2.1, 2.2) into a patient tube and/or for filling the syringe (2.1, 2.2) that is held in the syringe holder (10), wherein the connecting lines are embodied in an interchangeable control cassette (3) and the injector has a cassette holder (11) with a receiving chamber (110) that can be opened and closed, into which the control cassette (3) can be inserted.

A cassette for a medicament delivery device having a base unit is disclosed, where the cassette has a longitudinal axis defining a proximal direction and a distal direction; a body for accommodating a medicament container; a medicament delivery member; and a cap connected to the body through a connector, the cap enclosing a proximal end of the body; wherein the connector is disconnected when a distal force acting on the body in the distal direction and relative to the cap when the cassette is attached to the base unit. A medicament delivery device containing the cassette is also provided.

A tub is configured to contain a supply of water and is configured to be inserted into a chamber of a humidifier. The tub includes a tub base configured to contain the supply of water. The tub also includes a tub lid and a flow plate provided between the tub base and the tub lid. The flow plate includes a water level indicator configured to indicate a level of the supply of water in the tub base. In addition, the water level indicator includes a generally rectangular portion and a generally triangular portion.

A method is provided for detecting leaks in a disposable medical fluid cassette that includes a base and a flexible membrane attached to the base in such a way that the base and the flexible membrane cooperate to at least partially form a fluid passageway. The method includes applying a first force to the flexible membrane, measuring a first physical property of a system that includes the medical fluid cassette a medical fluid pumping machine, removing the first force from the flexible membrane, applying a second force to the flexible membrane, measuring a second physical property of the system, and determining whether the medical fluid cassette leaks based on a comparison of the first physical property and the second physical property.

An autoinjector apparatus is disclosed which comprises a single-use cassette and an autoinjector. The cassette comprises a housing and a sleeve movably disposed in the housing. A syringe may be disposed in the sleeve and secured therein with a lock cap. The lock cap is affixed to a distal end of the sleeve and contacts the distal end of the syringe. A shield remover extends through an opening in a proximal end of the housing for removing a needle shield which covers a needle of the syringe. A cassette identification arrangement is provided on a surface of the housing to enable the autoinjector to identify the cassette. The autoinjector is provided with a detector for reading the cassette identification arrangement.
