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.

A delivery device for delivering a medical fluid to a patient has a housing configured for receiving a container at least partially filled with the medical fluid. The delivery device further has a drive mechanism associated with the housing configured for delivering the medical fluid from the container to the patient in a dosing procedure. The delivery device further has a module configured for detecting at least one of a property of the dosing procedure and a property of the medical fluid. The module has at least one dose detection sensor configured for detecting an initiation, progression, and completion of the dosing procedure based on a position of a stopper within the container. The module further has at least one temperature sensor configured for measuring a temperature of the medical fluid within the container based on a temperature of the container.

A needleless injector for performing a subcutaneous injection without a needle. The needleless injector has a drive end having a drive spring for driving a piston system against a plunger to push liquid out a nozzle of an ampoule with sufficient velocity to deliver a subcutaneous injection without a needle.

The present disclosure relates to an injection device for expelling of a number of preset or user-selectable doses of a medicament, the injection device comprising: an elongated housing extending along a longitudinal axis, and a rotatable member and a counterpart member each comprising a first mechanical code and a second mechanical code, respectively. For setting of a dose the rotatable member is rotatable relative to the housing and relative to the counterpart member. During setting of the dose the rotatable member is constrained along the longitudinal axis relative to the housing or relative to the counterpart member. For expelling of a dose one of the rotatable member and the counterpart member is displaceable along the longitudinal axis into an expelling position relative to the other one of the rotatable member and the counterpart member only when the first mechanical code is aligned with the second mechanical code.

The present invention relates to a piston for a cartridge to be filled with a medicament, the piston comprising: a first piston member comprising a first material and forming a distal end face of the piston, a second piston member comprising a second material of lower compressibility compared to the first material, wherein the second piston member is arranged in a cupped receptacle of the first piston member and provides a thrust receiving surface at a proximal end of the piston.

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.

Provided are ergoline derivative containing medicaments disposed within a preassembled, prefilled, single-use delivery device, methods for administering a medicament using a preassembled, prefilled, single-use delivery device, and systems or kits that contain one or more preassembled, prefilled, single-use devices and user instructions, such as for treatment of a migraine or other headache.

An injection device for the self-administration of an injection of solution that includes a body portion/handle configured for engagement with a cartridge containing the solution and an injection needle. The injection device includes a safety mechanism whereby ejection of solution from the injection device cannot be done unless the safety mechanism is released. The injection device further involves two-stage deployment whereby a needle may be inserted upon release of the safety mechanism and solution is injected upon full insertion of the needle.

Self-actuating articles including, for example, self-actuating needles and/or self-actuating biopsy punches, are generally provided. Advantageously, the self-actuating articles described herein may be useful as a general platform for delivery of a wide variety of pharmaceutical drugs that are typically delivered via injection directly into tissue due to degradation in the GI tract. The self-actuating articles described herein may also be used to deliver sensors and/or take biopsies without the need for an endoscopy. In some embodiments, the article comprises a spring (e.g., a coil spring, a beam, a material having particular mechanical recovery characteristics). Those of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the term spring is not intended to be limited to coil springs, but generally encompass any reversibly compressive material and/or component which, after releasing an applied compressive force on the material/component, the material/component substantially returns to an uncompressed length of the material/component (e.g., the within 95% of the length of the material/component prior to compression).

A common injection device is assembled with an injection needle containing a drug, and has a needle bushing, a drug-information providing portion disposed on the needle bushing, and an injection propulsion mechanism detachably connected to the needle bushing. The needle bushing has a connecting portion with multiple engaging hooks, a bushing base, and a middle hole. The needle bushing is assembled with the injection needle, and the drug-information providing portion provides readable drug information of the drug. The injection propulsion mechanism is used to connect the needle bushing, and the injection action is performed according to the drug information to ensure the safety of injection. The injection propulsion mechanism is of a general type and is reusable, and it is not necessary to make a specific or dedicated injection device according to the injection needles equipped with different drugs, thereby reducing waste and reducing cost.
