Prefilled syringe and method of preparing a prefilled syringe

A method of preparing a prefilled syringe is disclosed that includes obtaining a syringe barrel and a needle adaptor cap assembled on the tip of the syringe barrel, wherein the needle adaptor cap has a rubber element tightly sealing the orifice of the tip of the syringe barrel and the syringe barrel together with the needle adaptor cap assembled on the tip of the syringe barrel is sterilized by a first sterilizing. Filling a drug substance into an interior of the syringe barrel and sealing the interior of the syringe barrel. Packaging the syringe barrel with a rubber stopper sealing the interior thereof and the needle adaptor cap assembled on the tip of the syringe barrel. Providing a second external surface sterilizing of the packaged syringe barrel with the rubber stopper sealing the interior thereof and the needle adaptor cap assembled on the tip of the syringe barrel.

Delivery Device Apparatuses, Systems, and Methods

A delivery device for delivery of medical agent to a barrier may comprise a main body including a central region defining a receptacle, a peripheral region defined by a number of petal members, and a set of retention tabs extending into the receptacle. The delivery device may further comprise a reservoir including at least one delivery sharp, a main interior volume, and at least one septum in fluid communication with the main interior volume. The reservoir may be coupled to the main body via the retention tabs. The delivery device may further comprise an adhesive coupled to the main body. The delivery device may further comprise at least one bias member positioned within the receptacle between the reservoir and a wall of the receptacle.

Syringe for processing fat grafts and related methods

A syringe for withdrawing an aspirate from a body for micro fat grafting is provided. The syringe includes a barrel having an inner wall extending therein. The inner wall has one or more apertures formed therein allowing the aspirate to contact an absorbent positioned between the inner wall and an outer wall of the barrel. A plunger moves longitudinally within the barrel along the inner wall and has a gasket attached to a proximal end forming a seal against the inner wall. The absorbent may take many forms to absorb a non-fat cell portion of the aspirate. A related method includes retracting the plunger from a first position to draw the aspirate from a harvest site of a body into the barrel, exposing the aspirate to the absorbent, and moving the plunger toward the first position so a remaining portion of the aspirate is no longer exposed to the absorbent.
