Flip Open Catheter Package

A catheter package includes an elongated case. A cap is attached to the case by a flexible strap. The case receives the tubing portion of a catheter. The catheter has a funnel attached to the tubing. The funnel has a seal portion releasably engageable with the case. The cap is releasably engageable with the funnel to retain the funnel in contact with the case. A user can flip the cap off the funnel to permit removal of the catheter from the case. The funnel may include ridges or a tactile ring to improve the user’s grip on the funnel. An adaptor may be disposed between the funnel and case to allow mating of different cross sectional shapes of the funnel and case. A hydration device may be inserted in the case. Alternately, a tubular liner may be inserted in the case to separate liquid water on the outside of the liner from the catheter tubing on the inside of the liner. A window in the liner mounts a patch of filter material that permits the passage of water vapor into the interior of the liner.

TUBING ASSEMBLY FOR PATIENT INTERFACE DEVICE

Disclosed are nasal aspirators with finger grips.

Force actuated injection device
11484660 · 2022-11-01 · ·

A force actuated injection device including a body adapted to contain medication, a grip slidably disposed over the body, a lock disposed between the body and the grip, the lock when locked preventing movement of the grip relative to the body and when unlocked permitting movement of the grip relative to the body, a needle guard retractable relative to the body, a biasing member biasing the needle guard away from the body, and a resistance band disposed between the body and the needle guard adapted to resist initial needle guard retraction relative to the body, wherein force on the needle guard exceeding a predetermined amount overcomes a frictional force of the resistance band allowing the needle guard to retract relative to the body to unlock the grip relative to the body such that movement of the grip relative to the body causes medication to be delivered from the body.

Auto-injector with anti-roll features

The present disclosure relates to a therapeutic agent delivery device with anti-roll features. In one embodiment, a therapeutic agent delivery device may include a tubular body including a first end portion, a second end portion, and a lumen extending between the first end portion and the second portion. An outer surface of the tubular body includes a first opening in communication with the lumen. The outer surface of the tubular body further may include a ledge extending around a periphery of the first opening, and a portion of the ledge closest to the second end portion of the tubular body may be shaped as an arrowhead. The therapeutic agent delivery device also may include a cap configured to engage the second end portion of the tubular body, which may include a curved sidewall extending radially outward. The curved sidewall may include a protrusion.

Palm Activated Drug Delivery Device

A device configured to administer a medication can comprise a lower housing that includes a housing latch. The device can further comprise a needle guard that is movable relative to the lower housing along a first direction from a first position to a second position so as to expose a needle, and an upper housing supported relative to the lower housing. The upper housing can be configured to move with respect to the lower housing along a second direction from a pre-use position to a dispensed position. The housing latch can releasably interfere with the upper housing when the upper housing is in the pre-use position so as to prevent the upper housing from moving toward the dispensed position, and the movement of the needle guard toward the second position, causes the interference to be removed, thereby allowing the upper housing to move toward the second position.

DISPENSER
20220347407 · 2022-11-03 · ·

A dispenser for powdery substances contained in a separate package that has a container part with removable container cover, wherein an aspirated air flow is further sucked predominantly through the container part after removal of the container cover from the container part, such that two air flows entering through slits in a lid that can be pivoted around a pivoting axis evacuate the container part from its two ends, and after merging enter a vortex chamber upstream from a mouthpiece. Outside air inlet openings for a third air flow are formed in a housing part covered by the lid in a radial extension to the pivoting axis.

Inhaler

An inhaler including a housing having a chamber to receive a valved canister and a stem block, and a mouthpiece in fluid communication with a passage of the stem block; and an actuation mechanism including configured to engage an outer surface of the stem block at a predefined angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the stem block to cause the downward movement of the stem block to activate the valve and release the aerosolizable liquid as the dose of the aerosolized spray out of the mouthpiece of the mechanical inhaler.

OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR WITH REMOVABLE SIEVE BED CANISTER ASSEMBLY

An oxygen concentrator may have a compressor to feed a feed gas for sieve bed(s) via a first manifold, an accumulator to receive enriched air from the bed(s) via a second manifold. It may include an outer housing for the manifolds, the compressor, and the accumulator. The housing may include an access portal to a compartment therein, for removably receiving the bed(s) as a canister assembly. The first manifold may be adjacent to the compartment and have inlet coupling(s) for removably coupling respectively with inlet(s) of the canister assembly. The inlet coupling(s) may each have a first central axis. The second manifold may be adjacent to the compartment and have outlet coupling(s) for removably coupling respectively with outlet(s) of the canister assembly. The outlet coupling(s) may each having a second central axis. The first and second central axes may form any one of an obtuse, acute, or right angle.

AUTO-INJECTOR
20220339358 · 2022-10-27 ·

An auto-injector for receiving and operating a syringe, the auto-injector comprising: a housing for receiving the syringe. The housing comprise a main body and a door operable between a first and a second position. The syringe is receivable within the housing when the door is in the first position. The auto-injector comprises at least one biaser configured to bias the door from the first position towards the second position, or from the second position towards the first position. The auto-injector comprises a plunger driver being configured, on activation of the auto-injector, to drive a plunger forward within the auto-injector to operate the syringe received within the auto-injector, the plunger driver being further configured to be primed when the door is moved in the direction that the biaser biases the door.
