A first tube connector and a second tube connector are to be automatically and mechanically attached to and detached from each other. Provided is an attaching/detaching device (100) including: a fixing portion (104) configured to fix a first tube connector (105); a holding portion (107) configured to hold a second tube connector (106); a moving portion configured to move the holding portion (107), which holds the second tube connector (106), in a direction of approaching the first tube connector (105) to connect the second tube connector (106) to the first tube connector (105), and move the second tube connector (106) after the connection in a direction of separating from the first tube connector (105) to release the connection of the second tube connector (106) and the first tube connector (105).

A fluid source management system (100) comprising a structure (101) that supports one or more fluid sources (103), sensors (102) that determine the fluid state of the fluid sources (103), at least one common reservoir (108) for storing the fluid, tubing (104) connecting the fluid sources (103) to the common fluid reservoir (108) and a controller (105) that controls the opening and closing of the tubing (104) based upon the fluid state of the fluid sources (103).

A syringe pump includes a lead screw, a cam, and an assembly having first and second arms each having a first end and a second end. The second ends of the first and second arms are configured to engage with the lead screw. The first ends of the first and second arms are configured to engage with the cam such that actuation of the cam toward the assembly causes the second ends of the first and second arms to pivotally approach each other. The second ends of the first and second arms each includes threads to engage the lead screw when the second ends of the first and second arms approach each other. The plunger head coupled to the assembly and operative to drive a plunger of a syringe into a barrel of the syringe.

Modules for housing electronic and electromechanical medical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration.

The disclosed systems and methods are configurable central nervous system (CNS) delivery solutions for therapeutics, such as genetic medicines. The systems and methods first infuse a therapeutic bolus within intrathecal space and subsequently infuse a flush fluid to move the therapeutic bolus rostrally toward a target area and achieve a desired spread in the spine and/or brain. The second location can be at a location caudal to the delivery location of the therapeutic bolus.

A fluid delivery Y-site is described that is configured to receive and control delivery of two or more fluid flows. Fluid flow is controlled within a chamber by a valve and float. Flow of a primary fluid into the chamber is reduced or halted by the movement of a valve. The valve may occlude a first flow port into the chamber in response fluid flowing from a second flow port into the chamber. A float is moveably disposed within the chamber and configured to engage the valve in response a fluid flow into the chamber from the second flow port. As fluid flow from the second flow port into the chamber is reduced or ceases, the valve and float allow the flow from the first flow port to once again enter the chamber and exit from an outlet port.

A fluid mixing device includes inlet ports in fluid communication with respective source containers, an inlet check valve, a mixing container in fluid communication with the inlet check valve, a discharge port in fluid communication with a target container, and a discharge check valve in fluid communication with the mixing container and the discharge port. Responsive to a negative pressure at the mixing container, fluid is drawn from the respective source containers through the inlet ports and through the inlet check valve and into the mixing container, while the discharge check valve precludes drawing of fluid from the target container. Responsive to a positive pressure at the mixing container, fluid is expelled from the mixing container through the discharge check valve and into the target container, while the inlet check valve precludes discharge of fluid from the mixing container to the inlet ports and the source containers.

Described herein are devices for delivering at least two different medications without requiring disconnections and reconnections of medication syringes. In some embodiments, the devices can accommodate at least two syringes simultaneously. In some embodiments, the device can be torqued while delivering the at least two different medications without loosening the outlet port from an intravenous line the device is hooked up to.
