Disclosed is a device for the parenteral delivery of a medication, such as a drug. The device includes upper and lower housings in which the upper housing is configured to move relative to the lower housing as a result of application of an external force to permit the user of the device to control the rate at which the drug is administered.

A mindfulness assisting assembly includes a housing that has a front wall, a rear wall and a perimeter edge defined at a juncture of the front and rear walls. The perimeter edge includes a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, a top edge and a bottom edge. Each of the front and rear walls is comprised of a flexible material. The front and rear walls each comprise a cloth material and the front wall has a different tactile impression than the rear wall. A resiliently compressible material is positioned within the housing. A pair of grips is attached to the housing such that each of the first and second lateral edges has one the grips attached thereto.

The invention of the present disclosure relates to a medicament dispenser for dispensing medicament from a plurality of elongate form medicament carriers, the dispenser comprising a dispensing mechanism for dispensing the medicament held within the dispenser, wherein the dispensing mechanism is capable of independently advancing each medicament carrier held within the dispenser, the dispensing mechanism comprising a driver, a carrier engagement for each medicament carrier for individually advancing the medicament dose portions thereof, an advancer for each carrier engagement, a flow director capable of dispensing a medicament dose from a plurality of medicament carriers, and a cover for the medicament access body operating as a component of the dispenser actuation mechanism.

A hand-operated device for enabling a patient to control a level of sedation. The device includes: an elongate arcuate portion arranged to fit around a wrist of a patient; and a switch arranged to activate upon compression across a width of the elongate arcuate portion.

A medical fluid pump, such as a syringe pump or infusion pump, includes a housing, a front flap hinged to a front side of the housing, and a carrying handle pivotally connected to opposite first and second side surfaces. The carrying handle is pivotable from a storage position to a carrying position in which the carrying handle is disposed above the housing. A plurality of electrical and mechanical components, which are contained within the housing, are necessary for all of the intended functions of the medical fluid pump. A selection of components from the electrical and mechanical components are provided as tare elements, placed within the housing such that a center of gravity of the medical fluid pump is substantially below the carrying handle in the carrying position.

A patient interface to deliver a flow of air at a positive pressure with respect to ambient air pressure to an entrance to the patient's airways to ameliorate sleep disordered breathing includes a frame assembly and a cushion assembly configured to removably and repeatably connect to the frame assembly. The frame assembly and the cushion assembly form at least part of a plenum chamber pressurizable to a therapeutic pressure. The cushion assembly comprises a one-piece construction including a seal-forming structure configured to form a seal with a region of a patients face surrounding the entrance to the patients airways and a frame connection structure configured to removably and repeatably connect the cushion assembly to the frame assembly. The seal-forming structure comprises a first elastomeric material and the frame connection structure comprises a second elastomeric material, the first elastomeric material comprising a lower durometer or hardness than the second elastomeric material.

Exemplary embodiments provide automatic injection devices, housing components for automatic injection devices and methods for fabricating the same. An exemplary housing of an automatic injection device may be overmolded with one or more gripping surfaces to facilitate gripping and manipulation of the automatic injection device by a user when performing an injection. In an exemplary embodiment, an overmolded left gripping surface may extend along a left side of the housing and an overmolded right gripping surface may extend along a right side of the housing opposite to the left side.

A female urethral catheter guide includes a guide body defining a first body portion having a first end and a second body portion having a second end. The first body portion includes a longitudinally extending catheter support groove formed in a surface thereof, and the second body portion includes a radially outwardly extending tunnel portion having a catheter tunnel formed therein, wherein the catheter tunnel is connected to the catheter support groove and the second end of the second body portion is rounded and defines a vaginal support end.

A bone marrow aspiration device and associated method includes an introducer needle assembly and an aspiration needle assembly. The introducer needle assembly includes an introducer cannula having proximal and distal ends, each end including an opening, and a screw assembly coupled to the introducer handle. The screw assembly includes a threaded tube and a lead screw receivable in the threaded tube. An outer cover is disposed around and in sealing engagement with the threaded tube and the lead screw. The aspiration needle assembly is receivable in the introducer cannula and includes an aspiration cannula forming a channel for aspirating bone marrow and including a flexible portion that extends from a distal end along a length of the aspiration cannula. A length of the aspiration cannula that extends beyond the distal end of the introducer cannula is adjustable by advancing the lead screw into or reversing the lead screw out of the threaded tube.

A respiratory device provides respiratory support to a patient. The respiratory device includes an expandable bag and a rigid valve housing. The expandable bag has an air inlet valve as well as a first and second sides that are bounded, respectively, by first and second rigid side panels. Each of the first and second rigid side panels includes a biasing member projection. The rigid valve housing is in fluid communication with the expandable bag. The rigid valve housing includes an adjustable tidal volume control device that interfaces with the biasing member projection of each of the first and second rigid side panels to set one of a plurality of predetermined tidal volumes for the expandable bag in an uncompressed or compressed configuration. The rigid valve housing additionally includes a patient breathing interface connection member.
