The present invention discloses a pump for measuring a pressure of fluid to be transferred, a fluid transport system using the same, and a method for operating the system. The pump includes a pumping portion alternately generating a positive pressure and a negative pressure; a first diaphragm which is provided on one side of the pumping portion and of which a shape is changed as the positive pressure and the negative pressure are alternately generated; a transport chamber which sucks and discharges a transport target fluid corresponding to the deformation of the first diaphragm; a second diaphragm which is provided on the other side of the pumping portion; a monitoring chamber which is provided on one side of the second diaphragm and of which a pressure changes corresponding to the deformation of the second diaphragm; and a pressure measuring portion measuring a pressure change of the monitoring chamber.

A medicament delivery device comprising a housing connected to a base and enclosing an interior, the interior having a fluid channel wherein the fluid channel passes from a first position in the interior, to a second position outside the interior, and to a third position in the interior.

A medical fluid-line arrangement and a medical elastomeric pump having such a fluid-line arrangement. The fluid-line arrangement transfers a medical fluid between a medical elastomeric pump and a patient port. The fluid-line arrangement has a fluid-line channel with an inlet and an outlet. The inlet connects to an outlet of the elastomeric pump, and the outlet connects to the patient port. A throttle element is connected in a fluid-conducting manner to the inlet and outlet of the fluid-line channel. A portion of the fluid-line channel extends through the throttle element. The throttle element causes a narrowing of an active-flow cross section of the fluid-line channel. The throttle element is encapsulated at least partially in a thermally conductive body having a heat-absorption surface that is larger than an outer surface of the throttle element and that is intended to be applied flat to a skin surface of a patient.

A self-compensating chucking device may be provided. The chucking device may form a portion of a latching door handle of a door of an infusion pump. The door and a housing of the infusion pump may form a clam-shell clamp that secures infusion tubing to pumping mechanisms of the infusion pump. The latching door handle may include a latching door mechanism that includes a tapered pin. The tapered pin may extend through an outer portion of a door housing, an opening in a handle of the door, and into an opening in an inner portion of the door housing. The opening in the handle of the door may have a tapered inner surface that corresponds to the taper the tapered pin to form the chucking device. The pin may include a groove configured to accept an E-clip that retains the tapered pin within the door housing.

Disclosed is a fluid dispensing device that includes at least one reservoir to hold the therapeutic fluid, at least one other unit requiring communication with ambient air, at least partly, to operate, and at least one housing defining an interior to retain the at least one reservoir and the at least one other unit. The at least one housing has at least one vent port formed on one or more of its walls. The at least one vent port is adapted to direct or communicate air to maintain pressure equilibrium between the air pressure in the interior of the at least one housing and the ambient air pressure outside the at least one housing, and provide communication with the ambient air to the at least one other unit requiring air to enable operation of the at least one other unit.

A medical device system is disclosed. The medical device system includes a first medical device and a second medical device. A remote interface including a touch screen is also included. The remote interface is in wireless communication with the first medical device and the second medical device. The remote interface is configured to provide a user interface to the first medical device and the second medical device. The remote interface is configured to receive user input through a touch screen. Also, a charging device is included. The charging device is configured to receive at least the first medical device and the remote interface and the charging device is configured to recharge a first medical device battery and the charging device is configured to recharge an interface battery in the remote interface. The charging device is connected to a personal computer wherein the personal computer provides information to the remote interface.

An infusion pump system is disclosed. The infusion pump system includes an infusion pump and a controller device in wireless communication with the infusion pump, wherein the controller including instructions for controlling the infusion pump, wherein the instructions may be synchronized with a secure web portal.

A drive unit for a medical device includes a drive unit housing, a drive member retained in the drive unit housing and movable relative to the drive unit housing to drive an operation of the medical device, the drive member includes a coupler output portion configured to be operatively connected to a liquid handling unit, a drive mechanism retained in the drive unit housing, wherein the drive mechanism is coupleable or coupled to the drive member via a mechanism interface and is configured to transfer a driving force or torque to the drive member, and a sealing member provided to establish a sealed interface with the drive member, wherein the sealed interface defines a sealed section of the interior of the drive unit housing, wherein the mechanism interface is arranged within the sealed section and the coupler output portion is arranged outside of the sealed section.

An adhesive patch for a drug delivery device with a bacteria impermeable sterility margin surrounding an edge surface of the adhesive patch is disclosed, as well as a drug delivery device fixed to such an adhesive patch and a method of assembling a drug delivery device with such an adhesive patch. In some arrangements, the sterility margin is attached to or integral with a lower liner on a lower surface of the adhesive patch. In other arrangements, the sterility margin is attached to or integral with an upper liner on an upper surface of the adhesive patch.

A self-compensating chucking device may be provided. The chucking device may form a portion of a latching door handle of a door of an infusion pump. The door and a housing of the infusion pump may form a clam-shell clamp that secures infusion tubing to pumping mechanisms of the infusion pump. The latching door handle may include a latching door mechanism that includes a tapered pin. The tapered pin may extend through an outer portion of a door housing, an opening in a handle of the door, and into an opening in an inner portion of the door housing. The opening in the handle of the door may have a tapered inner surface that corresponds to the taper of the tapered pin to form the chucking device. The pin may include a groove configured to accept an E-clip that retains the tapered pin within the door housing.
