Plastic Stopper

A stopper includes a main body portion defining an open rearward end configured to receive the plunger rod, an engagement portion provided along an inner circumference of the main body portion configured to engage at least a top portion of the plunger rod, a closed front end forming a flexible roof, and a first perimetrical skirt extending around an outer circumference of the main body portion toward the closed front end of the main body portion. When fluid pressure is increased inside the syringe barrel during an injection, the flexible roof expands in a radial direction toward an inner wall of the syringe barrel, the first perimetrical skirt is forced against the inner wall of the syringe barrel, and an engagement between the plunger rod and the engagement portion forces the main body portion to expand in the radial direction toward the inner wall of the syringe barrel.

SYRINGES AND MEDICAL DEVICES WITH WINDOWED LABELS
20220347389 · 2022-11-03 ·

A syringe or medical device, especially adapted and suited for use with children, having a label with non-transparent and transparent portions positioned on the syringe or medical device so as to avoid covering measurement graduations or indicia needed by a medical practitioner for performing a medical procedure, such as an injection or blood collection, and using attention grabbing graphic images on the non-transparent portion of the label for distracting the patient's attention from fluids and/or hypodermic needles involved in the medical procedure.

Drive apparatus for injection devices
11612690 · 2023-03-28 · ·

An injection device includes: a housing with a product container in which a stopper with a bearing face can be moved to a stopper end position and which, proximally to the stopper end position, has a minimum product container cross section; a drive configured to move the stopper, which includes a plunger rod with a drive face that contacts the bearing face; a plunger rod guide is arranged outside the product container and guides the plunger rod, with a plunger rod guide cross section adapted to a plunger rod cross section. The product container only incompletely guides movement of the plunger rod and the plunger rod cross section is not prevented from moving in a tilting direction by the minimum product container cross section, and a plunger rod centering aid a distal end of the plunger rod limits the movement of the plunger rod in the tilting direction.

NON-REUSABLE SYRINGE AND METHODS OF USE
20220347397 · 2022-11-03 ·

A syringe includes a barrel extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite proximal and distal ends. The barrel includes a proximal inner surface and a distal inner surface. The proximal inner surface defines a proximal chamber and the distal inner surface defines a distal chamber. The barrel includes first teeth extending from the proximal inner surface. A piston includes a body having opposite proximal and distal sections. The piston includes second teeth extending from an outer surface of the proximal section. The second teeth directly engage the first teeth to allow the piston to translate distally relative to the barrel along the longitudinal axis and prevent the piston from translating proximally relative to the barrel along the longitudinal axis. Systems, kits and methods are disclosed.

Feeding syringe holder

In one aspect, a system is provided for administering a formulated food solution. The system includes a syringe body having a collar, a barrel, and at least one protrusion. The system includes a handle configured to be hung on a support and a holder body connected to the handle. The holder body has a central opening sized to receive the syringe body. The holder body includes at least one alignment portion configured to engage at least one protrusion of the syringe body and resist turning of the syringe body in the central opening of the holder body.

Auto-injector with anti-roll features

The present disclosure relates to a therapeutic agent delivery device with anti-roll features. In one embodiment, a therapeutic agent delivery device may include a tubular body including a first end portion, a second end portion, and a lumen extending between the first end portion and the second portion. An outer surface of the tubular body includes a first opening in communication with the lumen. The outer surface of the tubular body further may include a ledge extending around a periphery of the first opening, and a portion of the ledge closest to the second end portion of the tubular body may be shaped as an arrowhead. The therapeutic agent delivery device also may include a cap configured to engage the second end portion of the tubular body, which may include a curved sidewall extending radially outward. The curved sidewall may include a protrusion.

Safety Syringe and Dosage Verification System

A dosage verification system for use prior to administering an injection of a medicinal fluid drawn into a medical syringe, the system comprising a medical syringe having a barrel with an outwardly facing, flat indicia display surface, plunger having a plunger seal disposed inside and slidably engaging an inwardly facing wall of the barrel and a plunger handle projecting rearwardly from the barrel, and a hypodermic needle projecting forwardly from the barrel, all in combination with an imaging device configured to view and selectively capture, store or transmit a digital image of the plunger position relative to the barrel when a dose of the medicinal fluid is drawn into the fluid chamber of the barrel prior to an injection to verify and provide a record of the dosage drawn, and to alert a user prior to injection when an incorrect dosage is drawn into the fluid chamber of the syringe.

Palm Activated Drug Delivery Device

A device configured to administer a medication can comprise a lower housing that includes a housing latch. The device can further comprise a needle guard that is movable relative to the lower housing along a first direction from a first position to a second position so as to expose a needle, and an upper housing supported relative to the lower housing. The upper housing can be configured to move with respect to the lower housing along a second direction from a pre-use position to a dispensed position. The housing latch can releasably interfere with the upper housing when the upper housing is in the pre-use position so as to prevent the upper housing from moving toward the dispensed position, and the movement of the needle guard toward the second position, causes the interference to be removed, thereby allowing the upper housing to move toward the second position.

Clip Syringe

A single use pre-filled delivery device is disclosed having a deformable container including a side wall having an inside surface defining a chamber for retaining fluid, a clip element, and a locking element. The deformable container further includes a closed proximal end and an open distal end including a male luer tip having a passageway therethrough providing fluid communication with the chamber. The male luer tip may be removably connectable to a female luer connection of a vascular access device. The clip element includes a distal end, proximal end, and a pivot located between the distal end and the proximal end of the clip element for collapsing the deformable container to drive fluid out of the chamber by movement of the proximal end towards the distal end. The pivot may be a hinge, which may be in the form of a living hinge. The deformable container may be attached to the clip element. The locking element may be disposed on the clip element. A method of administering a fluid to a vascular access device using a single use pre-filled delivery device as described herein is also disclosed.

PHARMACEUTICAL PACKAGE FOR OPHTHALMIC FORMULATIONS

A liquid formulation of an ophthalmic drug in a pharmaceutical package, for example a syringe, cartridge, or vial, made in part or in whole of a thermoplastic polymer, coated on the interior with a tie coating or layer, a barrier coating or layer, a pH protective coating or layer, and optionally a lubricity coating or layer.
