DEVICES METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR WIRELESS CONTROL OF MEDICAL DEVICES
A medical device system. The system includes a first medical device, a first remote interface, and a second remote interface in communication with the first remote interface and the first medical device, wherein the first medical device sends a command to the first medical device through the second remote interface, and wherein when the second remote interface receives the command, the command must be confirmed by the second remote interface before the command is send by the second remote interface to the first medical device.
SEQUENCED SYRINGE ASSEMBLY
Syringe assemblies are described herein. A syringe assembly includes an assembly housing, a first syringe, a second syringe, and a connecting gear. The first syringe is disposed within the assembly housing. Each plunger is movable within the respective syringe cavity and defines a respective chamber in the respective syringe cavity, wherein the respective chamber is in fluid communication with the respective syringe port, the respective plunger comprising a respective gear rack extending longitudinally along the respective plunger. The connecting gear is rotatably coupled to the assembly housing. The connecting gear is configured to be in meshed engagement with at least one of the first gear rack and the second gear rack of the syringes.
Ambulatory medicament pump voice operation
Ambulatory medical devices that provide therapy to a subject, such as blood glucose control, are disclosed. Disclosed systems and devices can transmit a request to modify blood glucose control therapy delivered to a subject. The request can be transmitted via a voice-activated control system, the ambulatory medicament pump can include a medicament reservoir, a pump controller, a wireless data interface, and/or other elements. The device can receive an indication that the request to modify therapy is approved and, in response to the indication that the request to modify the blood glucose control therapy is approved, instruct the pump controller to modify the blood glucose control therapy delivered to the subject.
Priming device
Described is a priming device to prime a gas from a fluid delivery system by receiving the gas and a fluid used to push the gas into a chamber, the priming device including a housing having a chamber, an inlet port, and an opening to release gas received into the chamber. The device further includes a sleeve having an open first end for coupling with a male luer connector, a second end coupled to the housing, and an axis between the first and second ends. The sleeve defines at least one window. The device further includes an arm extending from a bottom of each window toward the first end, and a member extending radially from an inner surface of each arm. Each member has a ramp surface, an engagement surface extending transversely to the ramp surface, and an apex area that transitions between the ramp surface and the engagement surface.
APPARATUS FOR AND METHOD IN DIRECT DRUG INFUSION USING A LABEL AS A HANGER
An apparatus and method for direct drug infusion from a vial to a patient are provided. A movable hanger label is provided to adhere to and support the vial to facilitate direct infusion of a drug, such as one or more pharmaceuticals, biopharmaceuticals, and/or biologics, from the vial to the patient. Additionally, a process is provided in which the drug, contained in the vial with the movable hanger label, may be directly infused through a primed infusion line with a rapid infusion rate. A saline flush is incorporated at the end of the administration to flush the infusion line, resulting in a reduced amount of the drug remaining in the line.
COVER BODY AND DEVICE FOR INJECTING MEDICAL LIQUID COMPRISING SAME
A liquid medication injection device includes a housing having an opening on one side thereof, a sealing part disposed inside the housing and covering the opening, a storage container disposed inside the housing and storing liquid medication, and an injection needle which is connected to the storage container and through which the liquid medication is injected via the sealing part.
PORTABLE ENTERAL FEEDING APPARATUS
An enteral feeding apparatus comprises a pod having an expansile pouch which defines a reservoir for enteral fluid and a gas impermeable barrier surrounding the pouch. The pod has an inlet port for delivery of enteral fluid into the pouch and an outlet port having a seal which is pierceable to release enteral fluid from the pouch for delivery to a PEG via a feeding line. The expansile pouch provides the sole force by which enteral fluid is delivered from the pouch through a regulator. The system can accommodate a range of enteral fluids with a wide range of viscosities.
Method and apparatus to reduce the deadspace in syringes and small-bore devices
Methods and apparatus to reduce deadspace in syringes and other devices with the use of volume displacing members that occupy space within one or more interior spaces of such devices. The volume displacing members are also equipped with one or more internal flow passages that facilitate a flow of a fluid through it. The volume displacing members are also adapted to cooperate with features of the devices that house them to form air-tight and liquid-tight seals that at least partially determine a fluid pathway through the devices.
INTRAVENOUS PRIMING CAP
A device for coupling to a fluid connector of an IV administration set to resist contamination of the fluid connector and IV administration set and permit priming of the IV administration set. The device including a cover body having a cavity for receiving the fluid connector, a priming passage for priming fluid from the IV administration set through the fluid connector, and a coupling tab extending from the cover body, the coupling tab permitting the cover body to be coupled to a length of an IV line or other portion of the IV administration set to resist contamination and permit priming of the IV administration set.
Injector state logic with hemodynamic monitoring
A fluid injection system including a graphical user interface, a fluid control module operatively connected to the graphical user interface, a monitoring control module provided in at least one of the graphical user interface and the fluid control module, a fluid injector operatively connected to the graphical user interface and the fluid control module, at least one fluid path set in fluid communication with the fluid control module, and a hemodynamic monitoring system operatively connected to the fluid path set and the monitoring control module. The hemodynamic monitoring system may be configured to receive electrical signals regarding pressure waves formed in medical fluid directed through the fluid path set based on a location of the fluid path set in a patient's vasculature, to convert the electrical signals to pressure wave form information, and to send the pressure wave form information to the monitoring control module.
