The present invention provides for a method for the treatment of a viral disease, disorder or condition in a subject, the method comprising the step of administering to said subject a medically active liquid in nebulized form by inhalation, wherein the medically active liquid comprises remdesivir or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and wherein the medically active liquid is administered in nebulized form using an inhalation device.

The present disclosure provides a nasal delivery device with a device body that includes a trigger end and an outlet end. The nasal delivery device also includes a trigger assembly coupled to the trigger end of the device body, a drug container supported by the device body, and a spring-loaded activator assembly supported by the device body and disposed between the trigger assembly and the drug container.

The present disclosure relates to a drive subassembly for a drug delivery device, the drive subassembly comprising a proximal housing part comprising a body portion and a closure portion configured as separate parts adapted to be coupled to each other, the closure portion comprising an end face and a guide rod extending from the end face in a distal direction, the guide rod adapted to be inserted into a drive spring; and a plunger, wherein the body portion comprises a profiled slot adapted to engage a plunger boss of the plunger to impede movement of the plunger in the distal direction unless the plunger is rotated to move the plunger boss out of the profiled slot. The disclosure furthermore relates to a proximal housing part for a drug delivery device, to a method for assembling the drive subassembly and to a method for assembling the drug delivery device.

A drug delivery assembly comprising a sensor system in combination with an indicator arranged to rotate, the amount of rotation being indicative of the size of an expelled dose amount. The sensor system comprises a sensor assembly adapted to measure a rotational position and/or a rotational movement of the indicator, the sensor assembly comprising a sensor element adapted to be operated at a non-constant sampling frequency. A processor is configured to determine on the basis of measured values from the sensor element rotational position(s) and/or amount of rotational movement of the indicator, as well as rotational speed of the indicator. To optimize energy consumption the processor is configured to dynamically control the sampling frequency in response to the determined rotational speed.

The present invention relates to a negative pressure generating device and an automatic negative pressure wound therapy device having a pressure changing function using the same. The present invention includes a static load elastic unit which provides an elastic force having a predetermined magnitude; a rotating unit which is connected to the static load elastic unit to rotate by the static load elastic unit; and a negative pressure cylinder which is connected to the rotating unit and interworks with the rotation of the rotating unit to generate a negative pressure therein. According to the present invention, a constant negative pressure may be consistently generated by a mechanical structure so that a manufacturing cost is significantly reduced as compared with an electrical structure and the size may be reduced.

A nebulizer for nebulizing a fluid and a reservoir with a fluid are proposed. The reservoir includes a collapsible bag with the fluid, where the bag extends in a circumferential direction within the housing part and wherein the reservoir is manually rotated for tensioning the nebulizer.

Articles for rapid release of components including, for example, quick release capsules, are generally provided. Advantageously, in some embodiments, the articles described herein may be configured to prevent fluid from contacting a component h contained therein (e.g., tissue interfacing component) or payload contained therein until a desired time, e.g., the time at which the component is configured to release from the article to a location internal to a subject (e.g., localize to a tissue wall in the subject). In some embodiments, the article comprises a first compartment and a second compartment not in fluid communication with the first compartment. In some embodiments, the first compartment and second compartment are fluidically isolated. For example, in some cases, the first compartment comprises a mechanism for releasing a component contained within the article and the second compartment comprises the component.

A device and method are disclosed for intravenous cannulation. The device employs a spring to precisely and accurately control the force and velocity imparted to a piercing needle, with mechanical constraints built into the device to precisely and accurately control the distance through which the piercing needle travels. A sheathed-needle configuration is used with an outer, echogenic needle that can be seen via ultrasound; and an inner needle used to pierce the vein. The operator releases the piercing needle with a controlled velocity, controlled force, and controlled travel distance. The device reduces the human error and complications that have previously been associated with manually piercing a vein for cannulation.

An injection device comprises a housing having a proximal end, a distal end and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween. The housing has a hand grip portion with a non-rotationally symmetric cross section about the longitudinal axis of the device at the proximal end of the housing.

A negative-pressure source is described. The negative-pressure includes a first housing and a second housing configured to be coupled to the first housing to form a cavity. The first housing and the second housing are rotatable on a common axis relative to each other. A membrane is disposed in the cavity and sealed to the second housing to form a first chamber and a second chamber. A motor is disposed in the first chamber, and a clockwork is coupled to the motor and configured to be driven by the motor. A threaded body is disposed in the first chamber and configured to be driven by the motor. The threaded body is configured to rotate on the common axis and to displace the membrane in response to rotation on the common axis.
